The Minis are known as some stylish, compact, and able to give you much pleasure at the wheel.

Mini One is the model that represents this brand and is characterized by compact dimensions and a body with two doors. Here the time is changing and with it the requirements too, resulting in a 5-door Mini One!

The first Mini One 5-door will be launched at Geneva Motor Show and the sales will be announced immediately after the event. This way the entry-level model will be extremely modest and under the hood will find an engine of 1.2-liter three-cylinder volume and only 75 hp! Known as a car with impeccable road holding, this engine seems extremely absurd, as are the performances. So the sprint to 100 km / h is achieved in 13.4 seconds!

 

The Mini says that not the performance but the low fuel consumption and the CO 2 emissions are the trumps of this release. The Mini One needs 5.2 l. for 100 kilometers with CO2 emissions equal to 121 g / km. However, we must recognize that neither in this 5-door the Mini One does not have to boast. We tried to compare this performance with a Dacia Sandero is driven by an engine with a similar configuration, 3-cylinder 1200 cc.

Thus, Dacia's average consumption is virtually identical - 5.9 liters per 100 km traveled, acceleration 0-100 km / h is achieved in 13.6 seconds and the CO2 emissions are 137 g / km. As you can see, only the Chapter of CO2 Mini has an advantage but taking into consideration that Sandero is larger, the difference is not surprisingly large.
