What's Going On Over at Mini? - The Cheat Sheet

Mini did, however, have a larger increase in year-over-year sales volume than any other brand for the second month of the year. Compared to the same month in 2013, Mini saw more than a 50% sales increase last month. Sometimes it’s a little more, and other times it’s a little less, but selling an extra 1,000 cars is a much bigger deal for Mini than it is for Ford or Toyota. If each Mini dealer sells just a few more cars per week though, that can also have a major impact on the brand’s overall sales. Mini did, however, recently introduce a four-door version of its iconic hardtop car, the aptly named Mini Cooper Hardtop 4-Door. The two-door version of the Mini Cooper Hardtop is much more spacious than its size might suggest, but it’s still quite a small car. Adding two more doors and stretching the car to add both rear seat legroom and trunk space gives the newest Mini the added practicality that a lot of potential customers might want while still retaining the same Mini Cooper look that you don’t... That’s not to say that the Mini Cooper Hardtop isn’t practical. Source: www.cheatsheet.com
