    Mini Could Build Mid-Engined Sports Car

    At the moment, Mini only produce front-wheel drive and front-engined models with some of them receiving the all-wheel-drive setup but could we see something to take on the likes of the Alpine A110?

    While talking to Motoring, Mini’s head of communications, Andreas Lampka, mentioned that there is a big chance of a mid-engined model getting the green light soon. “But if we give our engineers some more spare time and resources, they’ll come up with a mid-engine car,” Oh, and given the direction, Mini is going, it won’t necessarily have a combustion engine, either.

    When pushed further on the topic, Lampka said that something along the lines of the previously shelved Mini Superleggera concept isn’t far from happening.

    “Let’s see how the brand develops. Because yes, it is exciting times for Mini. We are confident we are making the right decisions and the other side you don’t know what is going to be the next challenge for the brand,” he said.

    As a reminder, the Mini Superleggera Vision Concept was revealed back in 2014 designed in partnership with Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera. It was supposed to be powered by an electric motor, but the powers that be decided to put a hold on the idea at the time.

    • It is big, luxurious, comfortable and radically fast. It will devour long stretches of tarmac and not exhaust you but most importantly, the Continental GT Speed is a Bentley that is very much ready and willing to play when the mood hits you. It is quite possibly the ultimate modern GT.

    • We have done countless launch control starts in countless cars but this has to be one of the biggest surprises so far. It's not the fastest we have tested but the way it gets 2.2 tons off the line is something to experience. Get the British brute on some grippy tarmac and you will be blown away!

0 to 100 km/h is claimed to be 3.6s and that claim is accurate!
