Mini Crossman 2010

Introduced last March in Geneva as concept - because under the appellation Crossover Concept, the next Tiny 4x4 performs the last turns of wheels and will be officially called Crossman in the marketing in the first quarter 2010.Bigger than the Tiny classic, about 4 metres, Mini Crossman is meant to be a baroudeuse of cities " Lifestyle ".
Very close from the point of view of style that a Tiny classic, the city-dweller very - way will free itself therefore notably from it thanks to an entire transmission. Moreover, his interesting wheelbase, undoubtedly above 2,60 m, should be pledge of a very correct habitability. Side modularitƩ, Crossman will have a priori rabattables and retractable seats, while the access aboard for the passengers could be made easier - as on Clubman - by an antagonistic opening of the door righthand.
Under the bonnet, Crossman will take back the range of existent motorisation, notably that of the version Cooper 1.6 THP of 175 horses. So, with Crossman, Tiny really intends to continue going surfing on the success of its city-dweller whose success story since the resumption of mark by BMW in 2001 is indisputable, especially to the female race and urban categories.
