The new MINI "original"

Los Angeles

The new MINI was unveiled in 2014

It was Pat McKenna, the big boss of Mini products, which announced very recently during a granted interview AutoGuide that the brand would offer a powered by a diesel engine in the North American car markets.

The turbodiesel engine is a 1.5-liter three-cylinder, generating a power of 114 horsepower and 199 lb-ft.

A car saves a energy balance of only 3.5 L/100 km.

There was also question the possibility of developing a rechargeable hybrid drivetrain for the Mini.
