British layout with the Italian emphasis - the outdoor design

It turned out to be a joy for me to design a theory like this." Says Head Anders Warming,.

The totally balanced percentages suggest at first glance what the powered MINI Superleggera Vision offers in terms of a driving encounter: the bonnet that is stretched, cool, short overhangs and long wheelbase express absolute driving pleasure. As in every MINI, the wheels are set extensively on the body, assuring a high level of agility. The passenger cell is somewhat set back, further underscoring the dynamic impression of the auto. The MINI Superleggera Vision's total effect is refined, sporty and dynamic.

The front features the MINI design icons that are conventional: a hexagonal grille and two ring-shaped headlights identify the front segment that is unmistakable, supplying a modern interpretation of attributes which have become established.

Both fog lights hark back to the headlamps' ring-shaped contours, supplying a smaller interpretation of them. The air inlets may also be annular, giving a distinguishing touch to the front segment. A level front splitter closes the front to the road off, thus underscoring the sporty statement down to the last element of the car.

Timeless coachwork building in a cutting edge interpretation

Encompassed by , seamless surfaces that are tight, it delineates an exact, energetic motion in the front wheels through the back. This represents longstanding expertise and the great craftsmanship of Touring Superleggera in place of body building: the firm has stood for good, light sports car bodies ever since it was founded. To This very day, Touring Superleggera forms big aluminium sheets using the performing framework constructions. The handcrafted style of building gives an aesthetic kind which would be almost impossible to reach by machine production to the MINI Superleggera Vision.

"In this automobile all unneeded gear or ornamentation is given, as functionality is obtained through lightness and efficacy of the bodywork and inside.

There are not many differences in the body since it's built from big sheets. The result is a shut look that carries sophistication that is high quality. The especially developed exterior paint finish Como Blue, in effect that is nearly liquid, stands for both modern and timeless style. It especially underlines the MINI Superleggera Vision's tasteful Italian touch. The complex rims and the refined outdoor mirrors in long-pit appearance complete with a mirror foundation add accentuations that is exclusive . Harking back to the front segment, the CFRP sills that are unobtrusive underscore the MINI Superleggera Vision's sporty nature.

It gives a special longitudinal dynamics to the MINI Superleggera Vision while at once embodying the non-traditional atmosphere of Touring Superleggera and MINI. The level, broad rear's highlight is the uncommon lights: designed in the shape of an Union Jack broken up in two, they join symbolism and functionality in a way. This way two express the MINI Superleggera Vision's British origins while at the exact same time used in the new MINI. The rear lights are demarcated by a chrome bar at the center of the back, making this region a classic British jewellery icon. The back is rounded off by the CFRP diffuser to the road in sporty design.

Harking back to the outside - the interior design

The interior and outdoor design merge. Just an encompassing shoulder line and each other visually separate the outside and interior. The edge creates an encircling, sporty gesture that perpetuates generous surfaces of the outside and the clear sophistication.

In in the feel and look of its styling's substances and it, the interior design observes the essence of classic coachwork building and the convention. It reveals the way the car was created: the attributes that are fundamental are quoted - the untreated aluminium sheeting and the structural components that are tube shaped - and they can be made observable in the inside with a high quality presentation. This can be most outstanding in the dash. The latter continues to be left in the state the car body would look like with no paint finish and is created from one aluminium sheet. The liberally sized unpainted surfaces and the dashboard's plainly observable hand craftsmanship go jointly to represent the coachbuilders' skilled artistry. An Union Jack is formed by the structural components suggesting the MINI Superleggera Vision's British sources.

MINI design styling is drawn on by the Center Device at the center of the instrument panel and continues to be expanded to contain a touch-sensitive control component and two ring-shaped devices with metal encompasses on the right. Along with the analog clock the second device that is framed activates the camera which is incorporated between the driver and front passenger seat. It's the function of capturing those minutes that are especially rewarding traveling.

Leather and the classic materials aluminium in a state that is essentially untreated define the MINI Superleggera Vision's decreased aesthetics in the inside. To the essentials, the substances are kept below the shoulder covered in brownish leather in the ancient colour Sabbia. The structural components in center console and the doors are finished in the raw, matt textured paint finish in the footwell area and high quality black chrome, only set apart in the aluminium surfaces. This intentionally comparing mix of high end materials and ordered surfaces gives the MINI Superleggera Vision an especial appeal.

Since 1926, Touring Superleggera is forerunner of custom coachbuilding and innovative automotive design. The firm is among the uncommon businesses offering the entire productive cycle that is inhouse from the first sketch, all the way through structural analysis and surface engineering, design models and images, to turnkey, low-quantity production of bodywork that is specific.

He continues: "This job also reveals MINIs focus to maintaining and nurturing the abilities of craftsmanship incorporated in modern coach building."
