Exterior Design
Differentiating itself from the MINI Cooper 3-door, convertible, and Clubman, the MINI Crossover Concept has grown by 6 inches in width and the same in height. Sitting noticeably taller than the standard models, and with a more aggressive wheel and tire package, there is no mistaking the “sport utility” objectives of this crossover concept when compared to its siblings. A muscular metallic grille adds a strong presence in the front while the roof of the concept features a large folding cloth panel for open-air driving if the weather permits. The Clubman’s innovative 5-door configuration has been redesigned with conventional front doors, a sliding rear side door (in minivan style) behind the driver, and a single standard-sized hinged door on the passenger’s side that replaces the small “suicide” door found on the Clubman. The dual rear cargo doors found on the Clubman have also been swapped out in favor of a single large swing-away door offering an unobstructed approach to the cargo area.
