Mini Aceman is a sensible choice

AGILE MOVER: BETTER THAN CLAIMED TIME OF 6.86 SEC

- Mark Jones

Almost nobody really remembers what an original Mini looks like anymore, and that's okay. I mean it was launched way back in 1959. In England. It was a tiny thing with the wheels at the corners, and petrol burning engines that made them feel as nimble as they were brisk.

But the entire world has changed since then. Now the iconic Mini is mostly made in China and with battery-electric power being the "engine" of choice more often than not.

Side note though, there has been huge investment in Mini's Oxford plant production and this will see the home of Mini become a full electric vehicle facility in the next few years. So, production of the Mini Aceman will move back to England in 2026.

Anyway, back to the now, and I present to you the new Mini Aceman that I spent a week zooting around the suburbs in recently.
