2010 Mini Roadster

You find the MINI Convertible mat too? Rest assured the British manufacturer is preparing an even more eye-catching with this Roadster Concept gives us a foretaste.

Closely derived from the MINI Concept Coupe (read our article), this prototype roadster is far more radical than the MINI Convertible as it is a strict two-seater.

Symbol of the hardiness, the soft top is ... manual and comes up behind the two chrome roll bars.

Measuring 3.71 m long, the Roadster Concept displays a height of 1, 35 m and a width of 1, 68 m. It is therefore 6 cm lower than the MINI Convertible, taking a nice pass to line small bombies.

With two seats less, the Roadster Concept can afford to provide a loading capacity twice that of the Cabriolet with a trunk of 250 liters.

Under the hood takes up the four-cylinder 1.6 Turbo 175hp .. the usual in MINI Cooper S. The Roadster concept is less powerful than the Coupe Concept, which takes for its part, the 1.6 Turbo 211 hp for the Cooper S John Cooper Works.

By 2011, the Roadster Coupe Concept as Concept and Crossman SUV urban experience the joys of the series. After the MINI Convertible and Clubman, the English manufacturer spent in the lap of BMW, confirms his dislike for the monoculture and one can only rejoice.
