New Mini debut blocks from BMW. New design without breaking with its predecessors.
Yesterday we were the first national publication to publish photos of the new Mercedes C-Class, and today we repeated the feat showing the first images of the new Mini (2014). The world presentation of the new Mini will take place this afternoon, but as usual, for our readers the veil goes up earlier.
Aesthetically, it is noted that there was a concern on the part of those responsible for Mini to maintain the stylistic line of the previous model. As for the chassis, engines and interiors, the revolution is total.
In the petrol blocks, the debut of the new BMW 1.5 and 2.0 units, both with turbo. The first, with three cylinders to deliver a nice 134hp, while the second (with four cylinders) will appear associated with the Cooper S version and in a first phase will have 189hp, with a later version expected to surpass 210hp in the John Cooper version. Works.
In the field of diesel, there is also a new engine, this time a 1.5 block with 114hp Common-Rail, which is expected to be the only engine of this nature in the first phase of commercialization of the model. Keep an eye out for all the news about the new Mini during the day here at Razão Automóvel.
