MF Exclusive: Since the beginning of the decade, BMW has been studying additional MINI model configurations and how they would fit within the brand. The first (and most obvious choice) was the convertible that debuted in 2004. Next will be the return of the Clubman moniker (but in classic Traveller form) as an extended three door MINI.
Our sources are telling us that BMW is currently looking at making the Colorado (almost surely to be tagged internally as the R58 when finalized) an all-wheel drive vehicle that sits higher and can be used for light off-roading without sacrificing much of the typical MINI performance.
Intresting!
