kiakia electricMazda MX-5, MINI ICON GALLERYWith its eyes set by coniuerqng a slice of the convertible market from the popular Mazda MX-5, MINI has revealed the final production text of the Roadster. The Roadster is the soft-top departure of the Auto introduced earlier this summer, and is the ordinal original to be side to MINI's line-up As all right As the first open-top two-seater in the brand's history. As is the case near the Coupe, the Runabout is supported on the actual Mini auto so it doesn't come to much of a shock that its dimensions mostly reflector those of the Mini Convertible at 3,734mm long, 1,683mm wide and 1,390mm tall. However, unlike the Convertible, the Roadster has space only for two beside other changes including a more than steeply raked windshield (by 13 degrees) and a 20mm lower height. The absence of the rear seats has almost doubled the capacity of the boot that stands at 240 liters. The British brand also promises a more go-kart feeling than the four-seat Convertible gratitude to the lower center of gravity, tailored chassis set-up, improved rigidity and optimized aerodynamic properties. Besides the soft top, there are no other cosmetic differences inside or out between the Coupe and the Runabout, while the engine offerings are the same. Within Europe, the Roadster will launch next spring in iv flavors including the base Altruist with a 122HP 1.6-liter petrol, the Cooper SD with a 143HP 2.0-liter turbo diesel, the Cooper S with a 184HP 1.6-liter turbocharged petrol and the flagship Lavatory Cooper Plant model fitted with a 1.6-liter turbo petrol pushing out 211HP. In North America, the Roadster will most possible be available exclusively with gas engines. Transmission choices include a standard 6-speed manual gearbox for all models and a 6-speed automatic for all variants aside from the JCW.

It looks ok but if I were in the market for this type of hlcivee, I think the Audi TT would make a better choice. The Mini dashboards are just plagued with too much going on and are a confusing mess of switches that look like they came off a 1980's hifi amp. I much prefer a straightforward design.
