Wouldn't four doors make it a sedan ?
And hey, not the worst decision MINI would have made should it go into production.

That's still better looking than a Porsche Panamera...

I'm a fan. What I don't think they should do is build this and put the exact same engine in it that all the other cooper models have. I want some variety! Maybe an inline 6?....Would be interesting...

No the countryman is enough for 4 door MINIs it will never have a bigger engine because if you want more power BMW would rather sell you a BMW.

I saw this at a car study that I was invited to. Didn't like it much. Reminded me of a shrunken up Porsche Panamera.

The roofline reminds me of a Mazda3 wagon, though it would be on a smaller scale (and MUCH smaller than a Panamera).

No, not enough hatch space. Not practical at all and with the wheels that far back, it would handle like a bus

It makes me happy I ordered a current R55 Clubman... Not the "soon to be" design.
I hate 4 door Minis... All of them... Even the current ones. They look about as good as the Fiat 500 as a 4 door. It ruins any attempt at the retro body style.
Then again, I hate most 4 door cars...

If the roof line sloped gracefully to the boot, it would look really sharp.

Technically speaking, a 4 door sedan would have B pillars, and a 4 door coupe would not. That's my understanding, at least.

Lacks scale. It either has no headroom (and is on a similar scale to the Countryman) or it has headroom but is huge.
I don't care for it, myself.
