Since the introduction of the double points policy in 2018, the industry has always complained that "the thunder is big, the rain is small", after three years, the current double point policy has begun to bear fruit. Looking back, today's major car companies have invariably turned to the camp of vehicle electrification and vehicle hybridization in the face of the double-point assessment system. Indeed, on the question of how to reduce the carbon emissions of vehicles, vehicle electrification and hybridization are undoubtedly the best solutions. Among them, China's automobile industry has been in a leading position in this field, which is enough to be gratifying, for example, IND, Weilai, ideal, etc. in the field of electrification are the leaders in this field. In the field of hybrids, BYD's DM-i, Great Wall DHT and Chang'an's IDD are all unhurried existences.
On the other hand, overseas first-line luxury brands may cater to the phrase "elephant pushing grinding - can't turn away", in the past two years, first-line luxury brands in the road of automobile electrification transformation, it seems that they have not gone smoothly. Fortunately, it quickly realized this problem, and in the past two years, it has gradually begun to abandon the internal combustion engine and gradually launched its own hybrid and pure electric models.
Recently, BMW officially released a set of new MINI pure electric version of the official map, this car is expected to be released in 2023, it is reported that this car will be established by the Great Wall and BMW beam car for domestic production. Or there will be a pure electric version, hybrid version and fuel version of the three power combinations to choose from, if the news is true, then for the ministry of minutes love internal combustion engine consumers will undoubtedly be a good news.
MINI's design has been the most fascinating point for consumers in the past, but at the same time, this feature has also imprisoned MINI's design style in the future.
From the front, the front face of the new MINI still retains the essence of THE PAST, and the semi-enclosed forward grille and the blackened design at the edge of the grille make the vehicle look more three-dimensional. In addition, MINI's iconic round headlights are also slightly different from the current fuel version of the model, and the changes in the internal structure of the headlights make the new car more refined. Since it is a pure electric model, the circular air intake above the cover has also been eliminated, so that the overall feeling of the entire front face part is stronger.
Taken together, the overall design of the front part of the face is similar to Euler's. If you change to euler car logo, it will not be against the law at all, if you stamp the car logo, I believe who is a good cat.
The shape of the rear of the new car is obviously different from the fuel version of the model, and the designer may have been inspired after watching "Spider-Man 3", and the new taillight shape is very unique. The interior of the taillights is a black mesh layout, which should be well recognized when lit at night. The taillight clusters on both sides are connected by a black decorative strip, a design that effectively stretches the visual width of the vehicle. The design of the rear surrounding the whole is relatively simple, and there are not too many complex line designs.
It is worth mentioning that the sunroof size of the new car is very impressive, and the larger size design will help to create a good lighting effect for the car, so that the interior space is not depressed at all.
If the exterior does not prove that the MINI is an electric version, then the design layout of the interior part of the vehicle will completely dispel this doubt.
Different from the cumbersome interior layout of the current fuel version, the interior of the pure electric version of the MINI presents a minimalist design style. The large circular screen of the center console further enhances the sense of science and technology of the vehicle, and at the same time, under the physical button embellishment under the central control, the mechanical sense of the vehicle is not lost, which is more rare for today's new energy models.
It is worth mentioning that through this spy photo, we did not find the LCD dashboard of the new car, only found the head-up display in front, so according to speculation, it integrated the content displayed on the dashboard into the front head-up display. This is appropriate to carry out the minimalist style to the end.
Regarding the power part of the new car, there is no final news at present, there is news that it will be built on the same platform as Euler, if the news is true, then the title of "Euler King" also seems to be well deserved.
