Mini has plans to revamp its model range entirely in the next few years. The core three-door model will be available with combustion and all-electric powertrains, and there will be a number of other new products joining the portfolio. As far as the Mini hatch is concerned, customers can expect a huge tech boost over the current generation of the model, and a new report from Autocar shines more light on the changes across the lineup.
The British automaker will completely rework the Mini Electric and it will not be mechanically related to the combustion-powered version. Instead, it will sit atop an EV platform and will return back to Mini’s roots in terms of dimensions and weight. The brand will reportedly make the zero-emissions hatch a little shorter than the outgoing model thanks to a shorter front overhang. The wheelbase, meanwhile, will grow slightly by around 1.57 inches (40 millimeters).
