Recently, some overseas media have taken a set of pure electric version of MINI road test spy photos. According to previous news, the pure electric version of MINI will be produced by beam cars jointly established by Great Wall Motors and BMW. According to the plan, the company's first product is a compact pure electric SUV, which will be put into production in 2022, and the second product is a pure electric version of the MINI.
In terms of appearance, BMW has previously released the official spy photos of the new car, and from the new spy photos, the test car has not made obvious adjustments to the appearance, and some accessories are also temporary components, which is expected to be in the early stages of testing, and many details will be adjusted. Specifically, the new car retains the classic oval headlight design of the MINI model, and the outer contour is decorated with practical silver trim strips, which has a strong recognition. The new car also retains the MINI's large polygonal grille profile, but it is expected that it will have a closed design, leaving only the intake opening below.
The test car is a two-door version of the model, the overall still maintains the USUAL consistent compact body shape, but in order to arrange the battery at the bottom, the side skirt position of the test car is obviously thicker, in addition, the new car and the current model on sale are basically no different. At the rear, the taillights of the current test car are obviously temporary components, and the previously exposed spy photos show that it is likely to adopt a triangle-like shape and be decorated with a penetrating bright black trim.
At present, the news of the interior and power of the new car is still very limited, and it is expected that it will not make drastic changes to the interior, but will retain the classic design elements, but there will be a significant improvement in the sense of technology, such as a larger size of the central control screen, more advanced car system and human-computer interaction functions.
