British Mini, which is part of BMW, has unveiled the Concept Aceman concept electric crossover. This car is a design exercise with which the brand sheds light on the development of the corporate identity of its cars.
Mini is working on a production variant of a purely electric crossover that should fill the gap between the current Cooper and Countryman in the product range.
The British brand does not provide technical characteristics of Aceman, focusing on its style and technology.
The exterior of Aceman is made in a new iteration of the brand's signature design - a combination of laconic minimalist forms and canonical elements of the Mini image. The latter include a floating roof and headlights gravitating to the circle. Instead of the traditional radiator grille, there is a panel imitating it in outline, behind which the sensors and radars of the autopilot system are hidden, as well as a light element with the Union Jack flag motif. The two-volume body of the car is painted in Icy Sunglow Green - a white-blue metallic with a yellowish tint. The roof is covered in British Racing Green, a dark green paint that has traditionally identified racing cars from Britain in international motorsport competitions. Wheels are 20 inches.
The overall length and width of the Aceman are 4.05 m and 1.99 m, respectively. That is, it is smaller than the serial Countryman.
The interior also combines classic and modern. The digital instrument cluster is circular and centered, a nod to the placement of the old Mini's speedometer. There is no leather in the interior, the upholstery is made of fabric, the fibers of which are made from recycled textiles. When the driver approaches the Mini Aceman, it greets him with flashing headlights.
