BMW and Great Wall cooperate, pure electric MINI may become the first car after their cooperation

In order to better adapt to the domestic environment, many foreign brands are looking for domestic partners one after another, and consumers have long been accustomed to the marriage between car companies. Unlike the ups and downs of SAIC Audi, the road to cooperation between BMW and Great Wall seems to be smooth sailing. In July of this year, BMW and Great Wall formally signed a contract to jointly establish the beam car, aiming to produce pure electric vehicles, and the MINI pure electric version is likely to be the first domestically produced model.

In 2017, MINI launched a pure electric version of the concept car at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The appearance basically maintains the shape of the existing MINI three-door version. The changes in the details make this MINI look avant-garde without losing its original cuteness. .

The MINI pure electric concept car uses a closed air intake grille, and the headlights have been redesigned. The S-shaped LED daytime running lights are highly recognizable. The vehicle is painted with combat gray paint, and the roof, side skirts, mirrors and front air intake grille are embellished with bright yellow paint, which adds a lot of vitality to this car.

In addition to the bright yellow elements, many visible charging plug-like decorative patterns also appeared on the body of the MINI pure electric concept car. In the future, these are also expected to become one of the features of the electric MINI.

The MINI pure electric concept car still uses the iconic suspended roof, and the door handle is changed to a hidden design, which is full of technological sense. The MINI pure electric concept car uses asymmetrical four-spoke wheels, the outer ring is decorated with yellow trim, and the center of the wheel is the MINI logo.

The rear of the MINI pure electric concept car is very concise, and the taillights still adopt the distinctive style of the rice flag, and the lampshade is changed to a transparent material, which is more sci-fi.

In the future, the interior of the mass-produced pure electric MINI is expected to be highly consistent with the fuel version of the MINI. The new car is likely to adopt a full LCD instrument, and the details should also apply the unique features of the pure electric model mentioned earlier.

The mass-produced pure electric MINI is likely to use the i3 powertrain, equipped with a 19 kWh battery pack, the maximum output power of the electric motor is 125 kW, and the maximum torque is 250 N·m.

After the beam car composed of Great Wall and BMW is made domestically, the entry barrier of pure electric MINI should not be too high. In addition, pure electric models can enjoy more abundant new energy subsidy policies than plug-in hybrid models, so pure electric The final price of MINI should surprise young consumers.

A few days ago, overseas media have taken spy photos of the mass-produced pure electric MINI. Compared with the concept car, the mass-produced pure electric version of the MINI looks like a net celebrity with no makeup removed, with a much simpler appearance. Hidden door handles, asymmetrical wheels, dynamic body surrounds and other designs were not seen on the test car. However, it does not rule out the possibility that the test car is only fitted with a fuel version of the MINI car shell.

Conclusion

It is reported that this car will be assembled at MINI’s Oxford plant in southern England, while the battery pack and motor will be supplied at the Dingolfing plant in Germany and the nearby Landshut plant. In the future, the new car may be put into production in the joint venture company Sunbeam Motors established by Great Wall BMW to meet consumers as domestically produced.
