MINI
An iconic British brand, Mini is celebrated for its compact, stylish cars that deliver spirited handling and urban practicality.
Born in the UK in 1959 under the British Motor Corporation, Mini was created to provide an efficient and affordable car during a fuel crisis. Designed by Alec Issigonis, the original Mini’s revolutionary transverse engine layout maximized interior space in a small footprint. The car gained fame not only for its practicality but also for its racing success, particularly in rallying. After BMW acquired Mini in 1994, the brand was reimagined as a premium compact carmaker. Today, Mini offers vehicles like the iconic Cooper and electric SE, combining playful styling with spirited driving dynamics.
