Spaceship-Like Mini Sedans

The 'MINI Concept Aceman' Boasts a Future-Forward Design

— July 28, 2022 — Autos
British auto brand MINI has unveiled the 'MINI Concept Aceman,' an all-electric miniature sedan that boasts a notably future-forward design scheme.

The three-door vehicle draws from the original MINI Cooper model, which made its debut more than 60 years ago. However, it revamps its design with all-new spaceship-like features such as a radiator griller, all-around illumination, green LED contouring, and extra smooth surfaces. What's more, the car will arrive with "precision" edges that will serve to balance out its sleek finishes. Meanwhile, the interior of the car features knitted textiles instead of leather and a high-tech OLED navigation display.

For those interested, the new MINI Concept Aceman will make its official debut at the end of August at Gamescom 2022 in Cologne.
