Isincamathelisi "Isithuthi soVavanyo soMbane" siyasinika. Sijonge kwiprototype yokuvavanya isizukulwana esilandelayo se MINI 3 iingcango umbane, ngaphambili kakhulu kunesiqhelo - ukufika kwesizukulwana esitsha akulindelekanga kude kube yi-2023.
Kodwa ngaphandle kombane weprototype, isizukulwana esilandelayo se-MINI siya kugcina iinjini zokutsha zangaphakathi kwikhathalogu. Njengoko kuqinisekiswa kutshanje, kuphela ngo-2025 apho siza kubona ukuphehlelelwa kwe-MINI yokugqibela nge-injini yobushushu. Ukususela ngoko, zonke iinguqulelo ezintsha ziya kuba yi-100% yeemodeli zombane.
Isizukulwana esitsha esineminyango emi-3 ye-MINI igcina i-silhouette ephawulekayo yomzekelo - yiyo, yonke injongo kunye neenjongo, i-MINI "911", ngoko akukho mntu ufuna ukonakalisa ifomula - kodwa imilinganiselo yayo kulindeleke ukuba icuthwe kancinane xa ithelekiswa kwimodeli yangoku, ukuhlangabezana nokugxekwa ukuba i-MINI-door-mini… mini yayincinci.
Ukhumbula ukuba amaqonga "angaphambili" (injini kunye nevili langaphambili) akhoyo kwiQela leBMW anomlinganiselo wemizekelo emikhulu, kwi-C-segment (BMW Series 1, umzekelo kunye nekamva iMINI Countryman), kwanyanzeleka ukuba ukuze sifumane esinye isisombululo sokuqinisekisa ukuba i-MINI elandelayo ihlala ihlangene kangangoko.
Isisombululo sifunyenwe kwelinye icala lehlabathi, ngokuthe ngqo e-China, apho i-joint venture i-BMW enayo kunye ne-Great Wall iya kuqiniswa ngokwabelana kweqonga elitsha phakathi kwabavelisi ababini. Le ndibaniselwano yeSino-German iya kuvumela uqoqosho lwesikali esifunekayo ukuze kugcinwe iindleko kunye nethuba lokuba i-MINI ikhule ngokurhweba eChina; ngaphezu kokuqhubeka kuveliswa eYurophu, kuya kuveliswa kwakhona, okokuqala, e-China, ukuphepha iirhafu eziphezulu zangoku.
Zibonisa ntoni iifoto zentlola?
Okwangoku, kuncinci okanye akukho nto iyaziwa malunga neempawu okanye iinkcukacha zesizukulwana esitsha se-MINI 3-door - ukusuka kwinqanaba elifanayo kulindeleke ukuba kubekho ezinye izinto eziphumayo, ezifana ne-bodywork yeminyango emihlanu.
Nangona i-silhouette ibonakala ngokukhawuleza, akufuneki sithathe ngokungathí sina ezinye zezinto ezibekwe kuyo, ezizezi iirimu ze-headlamp okanye izibane zasemva, ezingezona ezicacileyo, kunye nokungena komoya wobuxoki phezu kwe-hood. Nangona kunjalo, kukho umahluko ocacileyo phakathi kwesi sizukulwana sitsha kunye nesi sangoku, esinokuwubona ngaphambili.
Qaphela imigca yokusika eyahlula i-hood kwi-bumper kunye nezinye iipaneli zomzimba; iqokobhe-style hood yomfuziselo wangoku kufuneka inike indlela kwisisombululo esiqhelekileyo.
Kwakhona ngasemva, esiqwini, kukho umgca wokusikwa ongaqhelekanga-kancinci i-zigzag kwi-orientation yayo-ehamba ngee-optics zangasemva zangasemva.
Iingxelo zomphathi ophezulu we-MINI uBernd Körber kwi-Autocar ibonisa ukuba isizukulwana esilandelayo se-3-door design iya kuba "yeyona nyathelo likhulu kwiminyaka engama-20 yokugqibela" kwimbali yomzekelo, kodwa iya kuhlala ngokucacileyo i-MINI.
Kwakhona kunokwenzeka ukuba ubambe umbono wengaphakathi elitsha, elithembisa ukuba lahluke kakhulu kwimodeli yangoku. Ukusuka kwinto encinci esiyibonayo, sinokubona ukuba ideshibhodi kufuneka ilawulwe sisikrini esinye okanye ezibini - uqwalaselo olusanda kwi-vogue kule mihla - kwaye kubonakala ngathi ilahlekelwe yinto ephakathi kwesetyhula ebonakalise i-MINI ukusukela ... ngonaphakade.
