Tesla just fired its entire Supercharger division throwing BMW and MINI’s plans to use the network and NACS charging standard in disarray. What will happen next and how could it impact MINI’s future charging plans? Let’s take a closer look and dissect. Last year the BMW Group had committed to integrating the North American Charging Standard (NACS) into its electric vehicle offerings across the United States and Canada, with implementation scheduled for 2025. This would also have granted usage of much of the Tesla Supercharger network. That network is the real differentiator for Tesla in today’s EV landscape. It’s by far the best in the US and many parts of the world. And this week Tesla fired the entire team responsible for it and its future plans. Rumors point to Elon Musk making the decision with an element of spite. According to Electrek, the head of the Supercharging division was on board with the layoffs but fought back on the number that Musk wanted gone. He then decided to let go of the entire team as an example. U25 MINI Countryman SE The ramifications for MINI and Others The fallout as been swift. We’ve heard rumors that BMW and MINI is looking at option to change course and cancel plans to move to Tesla’s plug standard and even Supercharger access. Interestingly BMW had recently announced a massive joint venture that would bring a staggering 30,000 additional chargers to the US. While that still won’t match the number of Tesla Superchargers, it’s an important step. Other automakers are being more vocal. General Motors has gone on record in saying; “We are continuing to monitor the situation regarding changes to the Supercharger team and the potential impacts.” In total GM, ??Mercedes, Nissan, Honda, Hyundai, Toyota, BMW, Volkswagen and others had agreed to use the NACS standard and had penned agreements to use the Supercharger network in the US. What is the NACS Charging Standard and Why It Matters Almost all electric cars (including BMW and MINI) have used what is known as the CCS standard. However since the Model S launch, Tesla has used a propriety connector as part of its strategy to exclusively leverage its large Supercharger network. As part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law passed in 2021, the US Government announced it would offer US$7.5 billion in federal subsidies to build out a nationwide network of fast chargers at least every 50 miles along America’s major roads. One requirement to access the funding was that the chargers must be accessible by multiple brands of electric cars. The Tesla Model S P85 we tested in 2015 Responding to this Tesla wisely debuted an updated charging connector called the “North American Charging Standard” (NACS) and opened the standard to make the specifications available to other EV manufacturers. Unlike the earlier Tesla proprietary connector (which used CAN bus to communicate), NACS uses the same ISO 15118 protocol as CCS, making any CCS vehicle electrically compatible with NACS. Only a simple pass-through adapter is needed to make CCS vehicles compatible with NACS. This meant that all CCS equipped cars (again all electric BMWs and MINIs) technically had the ability to use much of Tesla’s charging network. With this move, Tesla began aggressively courting automakers to switch to the NACS standard to create a single plug and ultimately a simpler experience for consumers. In response GM, ??Mercedes, Nissan, Honda, Hyundai, Toyota, BMW, MINI Volkswagen and others agreed to begin manufacturing electric cars with the NACS standard over the next couple of years. However this move to disband the entire team responsible for the Supercharger network now throws the some doubt on those plans. The move has not only created enormous confusion in the industry but also a land grab for the now jobless talent coming from Tesla. In total the potential ramifications are almost too much to list. But if you want to go even deeper on this topic, perhaps no one has captured the facts and potential fallout better than our friend Kyle from Out of Spec Reviews.

MINI now has two distinctly different crossovers in its line-up, both offering in full electric form. But just how different are they in size, range and performance? We wanted to find out. So we went deep into the data on both cars to see exactly how they compared to themselves and earlier MINIs and found a few surprises. The Aceman is a small crossover that is effectively replacing the Clubman in the MINI line-up. But in reality it doesn’t replacement the Clubman at all as it’s both smaller and designed as a crossover rather than a wagon. In terms of size it’s actually much closer to the original R60 Countryman or the 2024 F55 Cooper S 5 door.

As you can see the new Countryman is a full 13″ longer and 4″ taller. It’s also 800 lbs heavier thanks to its larger battery and body. So it’s a materially larger vehicle than on the outside. But on the inside things get interesting. Surprisingly the Countryman’s wheelbase is only 6″ longer than the Aceman despite being 13″ longer in total. That means, while the Aceman is smaller, its wheelbase is long compared to its overall length. This pushes the wheels to the corners and creates more interior volume. Just like the original Mini. What that creates is some surprising interior volume in a few places.

This is likely due to the nature of the electric chassis that the Aceman uses. Often referred to as a skateboard chassis, it’s designed to be 100% electric thus does away with much of the structure associated with traditional internal combustion engine cars. The electric version of the U25 Countryman on the other hand is actually based on a combustion platform and can’t use space as efficiently. MINI Countryman vs Aceman: Performance & Range Let’s start with range. As you can see below the battery size differs greatly between the Aceman and the Countryman. With more space use, MINI was able to squeeze a larger battery pack into the new Countryman. But we also wonder if this was a calculated move by MINI. Knowing that the Aceman is 800 lbs lighter than the Countryman, MINI also likely wanted to limit the Aceman’s weight and cost keeping it a bit more nimble and of course cheaper.

This has a direct impact on range which you can see above. But what does this all mean to real-world range? EVdatabase.org has an excellent view into this and has published estimated range based on different weather scenarios. As you can see things differ greatly between mild and cold temperatures. Mild Weather ScenariosJ05 Aceman SE U25 Countryman SECity – Mild Weather *440 km / 273 miles535 km / 332 milesHighway – Mild Weather *275 km / 171 miles340 km / 211 milesCombined – Mild Weather *345 km / 214 miles420 km / 261 miles Cold Weather ScenariosJ05 Aceman SE U25 Countryman SECity – Cold Weather *290 km / 180 miles360 km / 224 milesHighway – Cold Weather *210 km / 131 miles265 km / 165 milesCombined – Cold Weather *250 km / 155 miles310 km / 192 milesIndication of real-world range in several situations. Cold weather: ‘worst-case’ based on -10°C and use of heating. Mild weather: ‘best-case’ based on 23°C and no use of A/C. For ‘Highway’ figures a constant speed of 110 km/h is assumed. The actual range will depend on speed, style of driving, weather and route conditions. Data provided by ev-database.org Now let’s look at outright performance. We don’t have a lot of data yet but what we do have points to a decisive win for the Countryman SE in terms of quickness. But with most electric vehicles speed is an enemy to range thus all these cars are limited to rather low figures.

With its 800 lbs weight advantage and the right track, the Aceman SE might just nip the Countryman SE. But that’s just conjecture at this point and clear for another day. Aceman vs Countryman – Conclusions Where does this leave us? The Aceman is a much more MINI-like vehicle in terms of its proportions and how it uses its size. It’s the classic MINI formula of maximizes the interior space despite its relatively small size. So much so that it’s actually larger in a couple dimensions than the new U25 Countryman. It’s also much more MINI-like in its weight and perceived agility. Which gives clues to us on how it will handle. It all points to the Aceman being a sweet spot in the range that could prove incredibly popular with potential owners.

For the new generation MINI Cooper and Countryman, MINI hasn’t just killed the manual but also eliminated shift paddles on all non-JCW models. Why have they done this and could this decision be reversed? We have details on why and some speculation for the future of the option. But we’ll need your help. There’s no way to spin this other than to see it’s a huge blow to all those who crave some interactivity while driving. While it’s sad to see this move on the Countryman, it feels tragic on the Cooper and Cooper S. It was just a few months ago when we saw the last manual transmission roll off the line for the F56 Cooper and Cooper S. And now gone is any ability to manually control shifts at all on 70% of the models sold in the US. The MINI Countryman JCW with its standard steering wheel mounted shift paddles MINI USA has celebrated the manual transmission for years and saw over 50% take rates for the manual on the JCW last year. Perhaps even more important, the Cooper S had a 22% take rate for the manual in the US. Clearly there’s a core group of buyers of the Cooper that are looking for the interactive nature of the manual. While there’s no full substitute, a well engineered automatic with responsive manual shifting can be fun and create interactivity with the car that so many enthusiasts crave. Why MINI USA Isn’t Offering Shift Paddles on non-JCW models While we don’t have an official statement yet from MINI USA, in talking with several sources globally, it’s become clear as to why this move has taken place. According to sources, MINI global made the decision to exclusively tie the optional shift paddles to the JCW Trim (Sport Trim in the UK). Like other MINI Trims, the JCW Trim brings together a number of options in a single package to create a specific look and a few performance features. In other words if gives the look of a JCW to any MINI without having to pay for it. In the case of the F66 MINI Cooper and Cooper S, JCW Trim it adds 18″ Lap Spoke 2-tone, black JCW seats, Adaptive Suspension, JCW brakes and the aforementioned Sport Automatic DCT Transmission (which is the only way to get paddles). The U25 Countryman JCW Thus checking the box for the JCW/Sport Trim is the only way to easily manually shift via paddles in a combustion powered MINI Cooper or Countryman. And that’s where the problem arises. MINI USA made the decision to not offer the JCW Trim in the US awhile back. From our conversations with representatives, they believed that the JCW trim takes away the specialness of the full JCW and ultimately will negatively affect the JCW brand. And we agree. It’s something we’ve seen BMW offer with its M Sport kits for years and has led to general confusion from buyers around what a real M product is. But that decision has apparently cost MINI USA the chance to offer paddle shifter on any non-JCW model. It would seem that MINI global isn’t giving any exception in making paddles exclusive to JCW Trims and thus no non JCW MINI sold in the US will have shift paddles moving forward. The sad lonely paddle-less steering wheel of the F66 Cooper S in Classic Trim The MINI USA Model Range & What Gets Paddles To put it in black and white, we’ve listed out the entire forthcoming combustion range of MINI models coming to the US. As you can see below there will only be three combustion JCWs out of a total of ten MINI models in the US. That means three or just 30% of the range will have shift paddles available.

While it’s not necessarily easy or satisfying, it does work. With help from MotoringFile reader Jorge Andrés, we’ve discovered a secret mode that allows the plus and minus rocker button the steering wheel to act as a manual shift control. If it sounds a bit like a video game, that’s because it feels like one. And getting to this mode isn’t easy. Here’s the sequence; start the car, select D, then pull down and select D/L, then pull down again and select D but this time hold it. And hold it. And hold it. For about 15-20 seconds actually. Finally you’ll see the D turn into a M1 which means it’s now in manual mode. While we’ve tested this on a new U25 Countryman, we’re told this will also work o the F66 MINI Cooper models as well. See this sporty looking MINI Cooper S? With no easy manual shifting it looks like an appliance to us. What The Future Might Bring and How You Can Help We find it hard to believe that MINI USA will continue to limit shift paddles to JCW in the years ahead for one reason – you. And that’s where all of you come in. To change this oversight, we need you to leave comments on MotoringFile.com primarily but also on our social channels that relate to this story (Facebook, Threads & Instagram). MINI USA reads MotoringFile daily and gives comments on the site and on our social channels a lot of attention. If we can make it evident that this is a major oversight than there’s a chance we’ll see optional shift paddles across the entire MINI range in the US. So sound off below and let them hear your thoughts. The post MINI USA to Limit Shift Paddles to JCW Models Only appeared first on MotoringFile. View the full article

The MINI key (or key fob) has aways been a unique aspect of the car. Since the R56 there’s been a whimsical design added to it to distinguish it from other cars. However for its new generation, there’s a completely new key fob design. So we went in-depth to see how it works even what’s inside. We found some surprises along with a few reasons why you may never even need it. MINI’s new key fob is less unique than its last two generations and is similar to its approach with the R50. On the R50 MINI leveraged an existing Rover designed key and added MINI styling elements to it. With the new generation of models, MINI has injected its design aesthetic to the current BMW fob design and functionality. That means the lock button and optional remote engine start are on the front. For the first time MINI has moved the unlock button away from the lock and placed it on the side like BMW. The European spec fob with a different button design Why the move? It’s likely due to feedback that unlocking the car could happen too easily at times. However MINI has carefully designed the buttons on the side subtly raising the outside buttons and keeping the trunk open button flush. However this nuance is not present on the current US spec key fobs we’ve sen. Similarly the diamond button in the fob above seems to be present in only certain markets and is likely programmable to several different functions. In the US and other markets that’s a dedicated horn button which helps you located your MINI quickly. The back of the fob is where you can replace the battery. Tearing Down the New MINI Key Fob There’s a small button that you depress to take off the end of the fob which then lets you easily take off the back. But there you won’t find much other than the housing for the replaceable battery. In the photos above you can see how it’s a simple clockwise twist to take off the battery housing. Also of note – you can clearly see how the US key lacks the subtle raised design of the two outer most buttons present on the European fobs we’ve encountered. Surprisingly its the front of the fob that houses the emergency key. But at this point we were a bit confused as to how to actually get the to the physical emergency key which we could clearly see from the back. So we turned it over and tried the very tried and true scientific approach of pulling it apart. And just like that the front of the key snapped off and revealed the rest of its secrets. Most importantly it’s here that you can find the emergency key for getting into your MINI when the fob is dead or unusable. As you can see there are even clear instruction on how to remove the key in case of emergency. Ironically MINI makes it much more clear at this point in the process then they do in actually getting to the emergency key itself. New MINI Key Fob Initial Impressions In our time with the new key fob we found it generally intuitive. However like all MINI key fobs it’s not what we could call a design perfected. For one it’s very un-MINI like in its size. This is the largest MINI key fob ever. Second while the buttons on the side are there for a reason, we found them harder to operate than the previous layouts where they were all front facing. Finally (and this is really nit-picking) the icon for opening the truck or boot is clearly not a MINI. Yes this is a small thing but MINI has a very proud and unique heritage that should be celebrated as much as possible. And sometimes it’s in the smallest moments where the brand needs to sweat the details. Unfortunately for one reason or another, they’ve missed this opportunity. One other important note. In most markets MINI will only be including one key fob with its new models and will supplant this with a key card. The card will work with keyless entry allowing you to simply carry it in our wallet and use the keyless entry to unlock and lock the car as well as start it. MINI’s Digital Key Plus and Why It May Be All You’ll Ever Need The alternative is that you don’t need to use the fob at all. With MINI now fully supporting the Car Connectivity Consortium and offers something they call Digital Key Plus. This allows you to now use your Smartphone for all the functionality that the key fob has traditionally offered. But this is much different the previous execution where the phone would send the request to a server and then it would be relayed to the car. New MINIs will come with one or two fobs depending on market and a key card which works in conjunction with keyless entry. This new technology communicated directly with the car for instantaneous response to any commend. There are a couple ways to use Digital Key Plus but the real game changer is to set it so the MINI simply unlocks when you walk up and lock when you walk away. The option also allows you to store the key in your phone’s wallet as well. On an iPhone this can be accessed by a double click on your power button. Then simply hold your phone to the MINI’s door handle to unlock or lock. Both work via ultra-wideband (UWB) technology in the same way as a traditional key fob but with even security in the way it communicates with the car. Using this method also allows you to share (permanently or temporarily) a digital key for others to use as well via something as simple as a text message. Oh and it will even work in most cases when your phone is dead (provided you have an iPhone). This is called Express Mode and if its’ enabled, it allows a user to lock/unlock and start the vehicle for up to 5 hours after the iPhone battery has run out. The MINI Key Fob – Initial Impressions Yes it’s too big. But if you look at how MINI packed in the emergency key it’s easy to see why. Other than that we’d love to see slightly more MINI specific design elements and those tactile raised buttons standard throughout the world. But what we’re really impressed with is the optional Digital Key Plus. It’s a game changer in the way it lets you simply forgot about the fob entirely and just go on with your life.

А что такое PWM? Хотел почитать - нагуглить не получилось. Ошибок нет. На холостом ходу нагревается ОЖ до 105 - включается вентилятор, долго крутит - выключается на 84,7. Далее включается на 96, опять крутит до 84, далее включается на 93. При этом скорость вентилятора не смотрел (она же должна показыватся?). Еще запускали на холостом ходу с включенным кондеем - вентилятор сразу включается, но после того как выключил кондей - вентилятор так и НЕ выключился долго, пока не выключили зажигание. По ощущениям скорость вращения 100%

The clues are adding up and we feel confident in saying it; MINI will debut the all new petrol powered MINI Cooper JCW at the Nurburgring 24 Hours. Here’s a look at the clues and why this will be such a big deal With the official news last week, Charlie Cooper’s recent Instagram post and some other rumblings, it feels obvious to us that we’ll see the new F66 MINI Cooper JCW debut at the Nurburgring. But it won’t just debut. The plan appears to have Bulldog Racing campaign the all new car in the grueling 24 Hours of the Nurburgring. Based on the timing of the race (June 2nd), we’d expect the car to be camouflaged via wrap to hide various styling bits. And as we can see in Charlie Cooper’s recent Instagram post, that’s exactly what appears to be shown. However there is a wrinkle here. The actual car shown in the Instagram post has exposed washer jets which the new F66 does not. And even the JCW test mules we’ve seen follow this design move. This could mean a lot of things. For one it could mean the car will be more of test mule which might utilize parts from the F56 race cars that Bulldog Racing has been campaigning for a few years. Or could it mean the new JCW variant will have a different hood, perhaps with a scoop? We don’t think so given the pre-production cars we’ve seen. Either way we’ll know soon. What We Know about the F66 MINI JCW The design of the new JCW will closely follow the optional JCW Trim we’ve already seen on the F66 MINI Cooper. In the real JCW however, the front bumper will have real ducts due to the need to cool the JCW B48 engine and we’re told the brake ducts also remain. In fact the JCW front bumper is quite close to what we’ve seen previously on the F56 as you can see below. Elsewhere you can clearly see MINI has moved to gloss black side skirts on the JCW along with gloss black fender flares. This follows the trends towards gloss black we’ve seen elsewhere. Time to get your polishing cloths out. The Revised MINI Cooper JCW Engine In what will be seen as a major disappointment, the 2025 MINI Cooper JCW will not see an increase in horsepower. Unlike the Cooper or the Cooper S, MINI is holding the line on power output and instead bringing some upgrades elsewhere.

The F66 JCW will have a slightly revised B48 engine under the hood – more specifically the B48A20O2. The big performance update will be torque which increases from 236 to 258 ft lbs giving the car a bit more grunt. Perhaps just important, it peaks lower in the rev range as. Previously in the F56 JCW torque maxed-out at 1,450. The B48A20O2 sees this change to 1,250 rpm meaning maximum power is even more immediate. These are small but subtle differences that point to a slightly quicker or more responsive B48 engine. MINI and Bulldog Racing at the 24 Hours of Nurburgring Bulldog Racing is bringing back last year’s podium winner, the black #126 MINI John Cooper Works 1to6 Edition along with the undisclosed new JCW. Both are are said to pay homage to this year’s 60th anniversary of the first Rallye Monte Carlo victory for MINI. We’ll have much more on the race and that second, new JCW poised to join last years 1to6 Edition. Until check out how the team did in 2023 and 2022.

Бортовой компьютер должен посредством PWM управлять частотой вращения вентилятора, если он крутит на 100%, значит что-то неисправно, колхозить не надо, надо разбирться с неисправностями.

Меня напрягает тот факт, что во-первых он крутит достаточно мощно и шумно. Во-вторых я живу на юге и большее время в году я буду ездить с включенным климат-контролем, а он автоматически врубает вентилятор - т.е. у меня ветилятор крутит постоянно - я думаю что это НЕ правильно - возможно это быстро исрасходует сам двигатель винта, генератор, аккумулятор и т.д. Я всерьез думаю заколхозить - поставить резистор + перепрошить мозги (но сомневаюсь) - логически было бы идеально чтоб при кондиционере он крутил на слабой скорости (как я понимаю для работы кондея малой скорости вполне достаточно) и включался на полную только при 105 градусах или повышении давления в системе кондиционирования. Но это рассуждения примитивные, возможно я не учитываю еще какие то важные моменты? Если у кого то есть по этому поводу мысли - буду благодарен! Где вы смотрите инструкцию от авто, схемы? И да, подключали к компу - показывает что авто для холодного климата, а по факту я в жарком живу. Может быть глупый вопрос, но все же лучше спросить, чем сделать: Всё таки - Одна скорость - это означает - Одна скорость вращения вентилятора(вкл/выкл и всегда стабильно с одной скоростью)? Или же какое то реле может разгонять/плавно понижать именно скорость вращения? Я никак не могу принять тот факт, что так тупо сделано!

мерседес и гольф тоже на высоте )

Если откруть инструкцию от авто, то на схеме можно увидеть что на N16 идёт 1 скоростной вентилятор, а на N18 уже с двумя скоростями. Для каждой скорости отдельное реле, а сами скорости регулируются резистором внутри вентилятора. Так как машины все собираются на одной линии и имеют модульную структуру, то нужно конкретно смотреть что у вас установлено. Все цепи идут в блок управлением двигателя и уже он решает, когда врубать вентилятор, учитаваются данные с датчика температуры двигателя, термостата и температуры ОЖ. Но на текущих пробегах проблема уже может быть в чём угодно.

The F66 MINI Cooper and U25 MINI Countryman won’t have shift paddles as standard. Depending how they’re optioned, even some Cooper S and Countryman S won’t have them. And without a traditional gear lever there’s seemingly no way to manually control gears. That is until we discovered a secret mode that fully enables manual control. The lack of shift paddle will be a big issues for many buying a Cooper or Countryman as a sporty car. While they will be available on JCW models and reportedly on some configurations of the S models, many F66 and U25 will be without them. Luckily with the help from MotoringFile reader Jorge Andrés, we’ve discovered a secret mode that allows the plus and minus rocker button the steering wheel to act as a manual shift control. If it sounds a bit like a video game, that’s because it feels like one. And getting to this mode isn’t easy. Here’s the sequence; start the car, select D, then pull down and select D/L, then pull down again and select D but this time hold it. And hold it. And hold it. For about 15-20 seconds actually. Finally you’ll see the D turn into a M1 which means it’s now in manual mode. While we’ve tested this on a new U25 Countryman, we’re told this will also work o the F66 MINI Cooper models as well. The bigger question from a lot of you will probably why has MINI eliminated the shift paddles from so many models? It’s unclear to us and we’re still getting conflicting reports on what trims and options bring them back in each model. But it’s clear that MINI has limited their availability more so than we’ve seen in the past.

Ну наконц-то! Это проблема у меня один в один - я тоже замучился понимать есть ли у меня вообще 1 скорость или нет? Дата производства 2011 Производитель MINI Модель Countryman Модификация Cooper Код модели R60 Расположение руля Слева Страна производства Германия Модель двигателя N16 B16 A Мощность, л.с. 122 Объем двигателя, см³ 1598 Привод Передний Номер шасси WL04667 Рынок сбыта Европа Перелопатил кучу форумов - так и не понял! Терморезистора у вентилятора точно нет, на СТО говорят что только одна скорость - но она херачит как турбина самолета. Скоро лето, я уже езжу с кондиционером - а он тоже автоматом включает карлсона. Но ведь это не нормально! (в смысле что включает это нормально, плохо что сразу на бешенной скорости) Я уже начал задумываться чтобы заколхозить поставить ёжика (терморезистор) + перепрошить мозги + хрен знает еще что сделать! Говорят их как то на ЕВРО-2 переделывают: вся суть как я понял не давать нагреваться до 105С, а начинать охлаждать на 90С. +Сегодня еще гоняли на холостых на СТО - и действительно был момент когда нижний патрубок был холодный - точно термостат! И наверняка то что написал An163 завтра поеду снимать термостат - разбираться что там за обманку из поворотников реле можно поставить! Потому что у меня тоже то нагреется до 105 включится выключится только на 84 затем включится на 96 опять охлаждает затем на 93 - вот так себя ведет. Первые две недели после покупки б/у вообще три раза выдавило антифриз (ездил без кондея) - задымился. Т.е. очень похоже что термостат мозг делает - причем то работает то нет. А если еще это и вылечит бешенные обороты вентилятора - просто супер! Очень надеюсь, что так и будет - ибо устал уже думать. И все таки кто знает - Как я понял: до 2007 (R56,R50)года на них ставили вентилятор с 2-мя скоростями (терморезистор), но эти резисторы страдали детской болезнью - горели, и во втором поколении разработчики БМВ стали ставить вентилятор с одной скоростью (кроме дизельных моторов), но дальше я не знаю - все равно за скорость отвечают теперь реле (ведь не зря же их там два под капотом нарисовано) - так это или нет? Я как и автор топика тоже не понимаю - ну не может же быть что скорость вращения прям одна и максимальная?

Я студент, у меня небольшой бизнес. У меня бюджет примерно 4млн. С детства хотел купить mini. Что выбрать? Хочу JCW, но обычный mini JCW не реализовывает свою мощность из-за переднего привода. Также хочу чтоб подвеска хоть чуть чуть мягкая была. Спасибо!

MINI has created something a bit different with the new Aceman. In doing so it’s become very clear that the strategy MINI is following is to make each new product distinct. And with the full line-up of the new MINI model range complete, we can clearly see how that plays out. But how did they get there and what did the process look like? We have a look at the design process that brought the Aceman to life. From sketch to clay models, MINI had documented the process giving us a glimpse into the thought that went into the new Aceman. So sit back, grab your favorite beverage and take a look at the following photos that walk us through that process.

If you want a new MINI and like the wind in your hair you’ll need to get a combustion model. MINI has eliminated the retractable sunroof on all new electric models moving to a fixed, single pane of glass. But it’s not all bad. There are a few good reasons MINI went this route and even a few benefits. Why has MINI chosen to eliminate the ability to open the expansive glass sunroof? Several factors likely play a role. For one, having a sunroof that opens reduces drag and also reduces range. It’s also not the worst idea to take the small electric motor out of the roof, and simplifying the design will remove weight exactly where you’d want to reduce it. The move will also reduce long-term issues like leaking or even rattles that have plagued some cars in the past. Just ask R50 or R56 owners about leaking sunroofs, for instance. Finally, there’s the cost factor for both MINI and the consumer. It allows MINI to reduce cost and (theoretically) pass that savings on to the consumer with a lower option price. But the real deciding factor was how owners used their cars and (didn’t) use their sunroofs. In the research that MINI did, they found that the majority of owners never or rarely opened the sunroof. With that in mind, it would seem the vast majority of owners would be better off with a simpler, more expansive pane of glass than with the previous retractable sunroof. While we love the feature of opening the sunroof and will miss the option, we wonder how many will truly even notice. What do you think? Let us know in the comments.

As with all new MINIs, the Aceman will offer the choice of four trims which group design elements into a single cohesive look. But understanding these difference trims will be essential in understanding how to spec and order a MINI Aceman. MINI’s Trim concepts are the same on the Aceman as they are on the new Cooper and Countryman. However the Aceman has a few unique aspects that tie in with the overall design aesthetic. Let’s take a look. Essential Trim The Essential Trim the standard trim level and features a simple, somewhat basic look. • Limited selection of body colors • Roof in body color • Cockpit and door panels in black • Interior and exterior accents in Vibrant Silver • Radiator grille surround in black Classic Trim Classic is for everyone who appreciates MINI’s iconic looks and timeless design options. This trim brings MINI’s prestigious heritage into the present, with cool technical features and a range color options. • Cockpit and door panels in subtly shimmering 3D knit material in a double tone of black/blue • High-quality Vescin/fabric sports seats with a houndstooth pattern in gray or black • Three-spoke sports steering wheel with decorative stitching and accents in Vibrant Silver • Radiator grille surround in high-gloss black • Optional contrast roof in black or white or with a multi-tone color gradient Favoured Trim Favoured Trim is there most expressive option. It’s for the owner who prefers a more modern, sophisticated look along with playful details. • Cockpit and door panels with knitted material in two-tone petrol/orange pattern • JCW sports seats in vescine in beige or dark petrol with piping and colored accent stitching • Three-spoke sports steering wheel with accent stitching and Vibrant Silver accents • Center console: lockable box • Radiator grille surround, exterior accents in Vibrant Silver • Optional contrast roof and mirror caps or optional roof with multi-tone color gradient JCW Trim For those looking to be a bit more aggressive and motorsports oriented, the JCW trim is the ideal choice. It’s also an early peek into how the full Aceman JCW model will be designed. • Door panels in JCW Black • Knitted cockpit in JCW black with red pattern • Vescin Sports seats with perforated pattern in JCW Black with red pattern and headrests/shoulder areas made of gray 2D knit material • JCW three-spoke vescine sports steering wheel with perforated pattern, gray stitching and • Vibrant Silver accents • Center console: lockable box • JCW sports brake in black with JCW logo The post First Look: The MINI Aceman Trims Designs appeared first on MotoringFile.

Доброго времени суток! В итоге нашлась ли неисправность?

MINI is putting a lot of energy into the Aceman launch. But What are the plans to bring it to the US? And if it does, when could we see it at dealers? We posed these questions to a few of our sources and got some interesting answers. Based on what we hear, MINI believes that the Aceman has a chance to be the biggest seller in the range within a few years. But first they have to get it on sale in all key markets. Of course that was the original intent. But first cost and then global politics got in the way. Designing and engineering cars for global markets is incredible expensive – especially for a small brand like MINI. Now add to this an entire range of combustion Coopers and a few Countryman and outright cost prohibitive. To solve this BMW had to get creative in how it accomplished both. This is how Spotlight Motors was created. A joint venture between MINI and Great Wall Motors from China, Spotlight was designed to help BMW leverage the scale of GWM along with their expertise in building electric cars. Given the fact that China is now the definitive world leader in volume for EVs, it seemed like a safe and smart move. With economies of scale solved with the collaboration and production set for China, BMW was left to engineer and design the new MINI Cooper and Aceman in Germany. If that sounds too good to be true, it was. A global trade war kicked off just as BMW signed on with GWM and suddenly countries like the US slapped 25-30% tariffs on Chinese cars (among other goods). This all makes importing the MINI Aceman to the US and other countries particularly difficult from a profit standpoint. While MINI ha intended to eventually produce its new electric models in other parts of the world, this global trade ward accelerated those plans and both cars will now be produced in Oxford from 2026 onward. The J05 Aceman being produced in the UK will serve Europe and likely the North American markets. This could allow for US imports to begin by 2026 – only two years away. The key word is “could” as sources tell us final decisions on where the Aceman will be sold are still being made. But things look promising according to our sources.

Designing an all new model for a storied brand like MINI is not an easy task. The history and expectations are sometimes at odds with the need for innovation. As part of the Aceman launch, Head of Design Oliver Heilmer sat down to talk about the process and how he and his team took the Aceman from sketch to production. Question: Mr. Heilmer, when you joined MINI in 2017 – how did you develop a vision to lead the models into the future? Oliver Heilmer: Given that MINI is a very traditional brand, the question was: How do you transform such a brand into the future? To answer this, we had to go back to the time when the classic Mini was created to understand the spirit behind Sir Alec Issigonis’s Mini. That helped us envision where the MINI brand needed to head in today’s context. In the next step, together with our very diverse team, we approached this essence of the original Mini and formulated our own creative mindset. And based on this, we developed an overall brand design vision that serves as a guideline for the design of the new products. Q: What was your biggest challenge in developing a completely new design language? OH: The biggest challenge was and is continuous. Dealing with the strong history of the brand. The first MINI was an absolute disruption – that too is part of the story. Now you could say that MINI is disruption and we forget everything that happened before. But then we lose the heart of the brand. Instead, we now talk about independent characters – and the MINI Cooper was an instant icon for us. You get closer to the original idea of the original: strong character, but with as few means as possible – “Charismatic Simplicity” also expresses that. Q: What does the new MINI design language “Charismatic Simplicity” stand for and how is this reflected in the new MINI Aceman? OH: It’s about strong characters and about each family member taking their individual position within the MINI family. If you look at the side, for example, the MINI Aceman has a very unique design language and unique graphics for the wheel arch covers. It is compact, appears agile and has a certain urge to move forward. That’s what makes this character, this charismatic. At the same time, we avoid unnecessary style elements. The exercise was to describe your own character using as few resources as possible. Q: How would you describe the character of the MINI Aceman? OH: The MINI Aceman is both a practical and expressive and unique addition to the MINI family. The Aceman is an independent character that can be edgy and appeals to customers who, regardless of their age, value individuality and personality in urban spaces. Q: The MINI Aceman is the first of its kind. Why is the MINI Aceman exactly the right vehicle for the urban environment? OH: The MINI Aceman fits perfectly into the urban environment as it reinterprets MINI’s classic values in a modern, all-electric crossover format. It offers an elevated seating position that conveys a feeling of safety and generous space without losing the compactness and maneuverability that are characteristic of MINI. Q: What gives you fresh inspiration for the development of new MINI models? OH: Inspiration is never a coincidence, but comes from a regular, targeted exchange within our team, in which each member shares inspiring and fascinating experiences: one builds skateboards, for example, the other lived on a sailboat for two years. I would roughly differentiate between direct and indirect inspiration. It’s all part of the indirect inspiration that fuels this spirit, which can be seen in the materials as well as in the surfaces and in the digital. Direct inspiration can be found, for example, in architecture or fashion. What is crucial, however, is the creative discourse within the team. Q: How do new, sustainably produced materials influence the design process at MINI? OH: Our brand design vision is based on our Creative Mindset, which includes four guiding values: Heartbeat, Curiosity, Responsibility and Daredevil. These values represent our basic principles such as heritage, curiosity for new things, sustainability and the courage to stand out. Sustainability and the responsible use of resources do not mean giving up for us, but rather we explore new possibilities in our creative process. Instead of materials such as leather, we use alternative technologies that allow for more design freedom and individualization, for example through the use of patterns or two-tone colors. For example, the 3D knit as one of the central design elements is inspired by the sneaker industry. And for aesthetic and environmental reasons, we are replacing chrome with our new color Vibrant Silver. Q: Which MINI Aceman design innovation are you particularly proud of? OH: Two things in particular, and they both relate to size: The MINI Aceman is extremely compact because the overhangs at the front and rear are very short. Nevertheless, the vehicle is extremely safe. This is due to truly outstanding engineering work. But it’s not just the things you can see that are special. I would also like to highlight how the feeling of space is handled throughout the interior, so that maximum lightness is achieved. Q: Are there hidden design elements that only become apparent upon closer inspection? OH: The idea behind the little Easter eggs we have hidden is the fact that as a human being you want to be surprised. Not always at first, but also after a certain time. The digital innovation allows for playfulness, so that you can, for example, display the navigation arrow as a small MINI or display a large rotating record on the central instrument. And that’s how Spike came into being, an animal friend who has always been a loyal companion to the brand. And this gave rise to the idea of offering a kind of digital companion. So Spike came into the MINI and now lives in the display, so to speak. Q: In which direction do you want to develop MINI design in the future? OH: As a team, we are of the opinion that the “Creative Mindset” remains a guideline with the same relevance for future products. And at the same time, we will focus even more strongly on the value of responsibility. Curiosity and responsibility – we are currently taking these values with us into the thoughts of the next generation. Q: If there was a product other than automobiles that you could design – what would it be? OH: I could imagine many things, but if I had to choose, I would say: a sailboat. I’ve sailed maybe five times in my life, but I still have a fascination for the water and dealing with the forces that reign there. For my diploma thesis, I designed a trimaran together with a fellow student, with the question of whether “automotive” could be designed in an area of mobility that doesn’t necessarily have to take place on the road. I believe that there is still enormous potential there . The post Interview: Head of MINI Design Talks About Designing the Aceman appeared first on MotoringFile. View the full article

With MINI’s strategy to go all electric 2030, fans have been wondering what that will mean for the performance oriented JCW brand. While we’re still months away from the official debut, today we’re getting a peek at the MINI Aceman JCW along with some exclusive performance and release details. Because MINI is offering the full JCW body kit wheels and even badging on the JCW Trim in Europe and the UK (under the name Sport), we’re being treated with a full view of what the Aceman JCW will look like. How do we know? For one MINI has followed this formula in the past. But beyond that we have our own sources telling us to expect a near identical look for the full Aceman JCW. MINI Aceman JCW Performance – What to Expect The all electric J05 MINI Aceman JCW will be mechanically revised over the standard SE model. Perhaps most important, we’ll see more power from its single electric motor. While we don’t have official word from MINI, sources are telling us to expect around 260 hp and 300 lb-ft. That’s a sizable increase over the 218 hp and 243 ft-lb from the SE model and should take the Aceman JCW to 60 mph around 5 seconds (provided that advanced traction control works).

MINI will also be updating suspension calibration as well as offering larger brakes. Expect four piston upfront with a single piston design in the rear. Worth noting that even the JCW brakes will eventually be optional on the non-JCW Aceman from the factory. This means that, outside of a couple minor trim pieces, it will be nearly impossible to tell a real JCW apart from an Aceman E with the JCW Trim. With these performance updates there will be a downside – reduced range. While we don’t have figures from MINI, we’ve been told to expect a slight reduction in range due to the nature of the modifications and the fact that MINI will carry over the battery technology and size from the SE. 2025 MINI Aceman JCW Production & Release Timing The big news here is that MINI is already almost done with the electric MINI Cooper JCW and MINI Aceman JCW development. Both cars will in Q3 of 2024 and will begin production in January 2024. This production will start in China but will expand production to MINI’s Oxford Plant in the UK in 2026. This will likely pave the way for North American deliveries. Until then look for the electric MINI Aceman JCW to be exclusively available in Asia, Europe and South America. But this isn’t the only new JCW offering MINI will be unveiling this year. MINI will be debuting the electric J01 Cooper JCW and the petrol F66 Cooper JCW later this year with production to follow shortly afterwards. Why Is MINI Offering the JCW On Non JCW Aceman Models? Why is MINI offering the look of JCW on the Aceman SE. In the words of MINI Head of Design Oliver Heimler, the brand wanted to give customers the choice of a JCW look without having to compromise on range or comfort. However not all markets will follow this approach. For instance MINI USA intends to keep the JCW Trim you see here off the options list for all non JCW models. The thought is that it should be exclusive to JCW models to maintain exclusivity. In the UK they will offer the JCW Trim but instead refer to it as “sport”. The changes we see in the JCW Trim will all carry over to the full Aceman JCW. This includes prominent JCW specific bumpers which include function diffusers at the front and rear along with radiator grille surround and logos finished in high-gloss black. We’ll also see contrasting roof and the mirror caps in Chilli Red and a JCW specific color (likely Legend Grey) as optional. Rumor has it that all future JCW products will not offer the option of a white roof. What do you think? Does the Aceman JCW tempt you?
