MINIs future model line up.

Braminator · 2013-04-29 03:38:13

MINI 3/5dr hatch ? Increased demand for utility leads to the next generation MINI, due next year, to feature available five doors for the 1st time. MINI Traveller ? MINI?s version of the Active Tourer. It?s designed to show how both cars can co-exist with individual style and flexibility. MINI Convertible ? The F56-generation version of the popular 4-seat, open top MINI. MINI Roadster ? The next Roadster and Coupe will launch with a sportier look completely separate from the standard MINI. MINI design language will remain but the bodywork will no longer be based on the hardtop hatch. MINI Coupe ? Coupe version of Roadster, and as mentioned above, more individual in appearance than the standard hardtop hatch. MINI Sedan ? A sporty four door MINI aimed at further growing the market for MINIs. Could potentially be MINI?s best seller worldwide, overtaking the Countryman. MINI Countryman ? Next generation of the global MINI juggernaut, the Countryman will finally share its underpinnings with BMW X1. MINI Paceman and Paceman XL ? Next generation of newest MINI member will be offered with the current 3-door version, as well as a 5-door. MINI Clubman ? Current car revisited with more style and more flexibility. Anticipated as more of a Shooting Brake with dynamic raked roof and forward looking proportions. http://www.motoringfile.com/2013/04/25/how-should-mini-change-their-model-line-up/#more-29282

HUH? So from what I understand the Hardtop will basically be replaced with a totally new car? If that so then that's just whack, glad I bought mine in 2012...

I don't think so. There still a 3-door hatch.

Um, a 5-door Paceman? Wouldn't that be a Countryman?

And last week, they were going to be reducing the model lineup. Supposedly the coupe/roadster and Clubman were endangered. This is all pure speculation. By the way, +1 on the 5 door Paceman/Countryman comment!
