Mini, like most automakers, has an ambitious plan to become a purely electric brand one day. The transition won’t happen overnight, but the automaker is revamping its lineup, which includes a Mini Cooper Hardtop five-door variant that might see some form of electrification when it debuts. The next-generation model will likely borrow styling cues from the new Cooper Hardtop three-door variant.
Our spy photographers have captured the first Cooper Hardtop five-door prototypes out testing in recent weeks, with the three-door model expected to launch sometime next year; however, nothing is official. Our renderings peel away the camouflage to preview what it could look like when it breaks cover.
