MINI HAVE GONE WILD WITH THESE TWO NEW EPIC MODELS

EV Channels Review

Petrol Ped explores two unique MINI JCW concepts, a collaboration with DEUS ex Machina, based on the F66 petrol and electric JCW models. The petrol 'motorbike' concept features a rally-inspired light pod, aggressive styling, unique alloy wheels mimicking steelies, and classic-style door mirrors. Inside, it boasts a motorsport-focused interior with a hydraulic handbrake, carbon fiber accents, and a six-point harness. The electric 'surf' concept stands out with naked fiberglass body panels, a distinctive rear wing, asymmetric wheels, and a translucent fiberglass roof. Its interior mirrors the stripped-back, custom aesthetic with neoprene seat padding and exposed elements. While both are concept cars with no immediate production plans, the reviewer praises their inspirational design, pushing boundaries, and incorporating nods to MINI's heritage. He particularly highlights the potential for elements like the light pod, door mirrors, and interior details to influence future MINI designs, expressing a strong desire for these concepts to see some form of production.
