MINI最近刚刚发布了重新设计的MINI Cooper，但据美国一家网站报道，车厂已经开始开发下一代车型了。新车将于2020年上市，下一代MINI Cooper将比前代车型更先进。虽然新车细节现在还不得而知，但据该网站报道，该车将“采用更多高科技材料”。虽然语焉不详，但据说受益于与宝马的联姻，新车将采用更多碳纤维材质。另外，预计新车将搭载排量更小引擎并推出电动车版本。对于后者目前知之甚少，但车厂先前曾发布过MINI E，看起来正在开发MINI E Race轿跑车。

 

2020 MINI Cooper already under development

MINI just unveiled the redesigned Cooper but Edmunds is reporting work has already begun on the next-generation model.

 

Slated to arrive in 2020, the next-generation Cooper will reportedly be more advanced than its predecessors. The specifics are still kind of murky at this point but the website says the car could use "high-tech materials." That's pretty vague but Edmunds implies the car could benefit from BMW's love affair with carbon fiber.

 

Sources have also suggested we can expect smaller engines and possibly an electric variant. Little is known about the latter model but the company has previously offered the MINI E and appears to be working on a MINI E Race Coupe.
