According to a recent report, MINI is working on a seven-seat crossover.

While details are limited, AutoExpress talked to MINI's head of brand management, Dr Wolfgang Armbrecht, who stated "We could take the [Countryman's] wheelbase from 2.60 meters (102.4 inches) to around 2.70 meters (106.3 inches)." This would enable the crossover (tentatively dubbed the Countryman Plus) to complete with the Nissan Qashqai+2 and traditional MPVs like the Volkswagen Touran.

No word on when to expect an introduction, but MINI is probably eyeing a successful launch in North America where consumers are used to large crossovers. Case in point, the 2.70 meters (106.3 inches) wheelbase of the seven-seat Countryman Plus is 0.2 meters (6.2 inches) shorter than the wheelbase of the five-seat Chevrolet Equinox.

As we have previously reported, MINI is also working on a production version of the Beachcomber concept. Expected to wear the Moke moniker, when released, the Jeep Wrangler-like crossover will feature removable doors and a canvas roof.

Vedremo..

Circolano voci su una possibile Mini Moke basata sul Beachcomber Concept. Che si fa, si apre un topic pure per quella?

IMHO col montante posteriore del concept (che è più inclinato rispetto a quello di serie) la linea dovrebbe guadagnarne parecchio.

Si, fa pure .

per me possono pure farla a 10 posti che brutta rimane...
