Best Mini Crossover Shots Yet From Paris Show Floor
Ben smuggled back a couple gigs of additional images from the Paris Motor Show last week, including these shots inside and out of the Mini Crossover Concept. We got a live look at the diminutive soft-roader last week during the show, but these images give you quite a bit more detail, particularly of the laser globe center stack thingamajig. The whole car has kind of a split personality: It's the biggest Mini yet actually appears, from certain angles, more true to the original Mini than the regular version of the car. We'll see what the results are should they make it into showrooms. Press release reproduced after the jump. More » -

Mini Reveals Crossover Concept In Paris, Declines To Go Off-Roading
Mini just revealed their Mini Crossover Concept — the first SUV from the diminutive BMW brand — here at the Paris Motor Show. The concept car's supposedly a first look at what we should expect from the 2011 Mini Crossman. Now that we've seen it live and in the flesh we can conclusively say — it looks like a Mini Clubman with lifts and an extra full-size door for fun on the passenger side. Want to know more? Hit the jump. More » -

Mini Off-Road Crossover Concept Includes Laser-Projected 3D In-Car Entertainment Globe
The off-road Mini Crossover Concept may be small on the outside, but on the inside there's a giant 3D globe that utilizes laser technology to integrate all of the car's entertainment, communication and navigational features into a touchscreen interface. The globe splits into hemispheres allowing the driver to check out a map while a passengers surfs the web. Intense laser projection displays information, in both text and graphic form, at multiple layers within the globe. The driver can either interface with the system by touching the globe or by using the trackball on the steering wheel — which also acts as the "key." Passengers can use the pop-out keyboard or slide controls below the globe. While this is still very much a concept, all the technology for it exists and we wouldn't be surprised to see Mini incorporate many of these features on a feature vehicle. Full description in the press release below the jump. More » -

Mini Reveals Crossover Concept, Takes Brand Off-Road For First Time
BMW has released a series of sketches of their new Mini Crossover Concept, a tease of the 2011 Mini Crossman we're expecting from the brand. How much resemblance this bears to the Magna Steyr-built production model rumored to debut in 2010 is uncertain, but these sketches clearly point to a four-door, four-seat vehicle with all-wheel drive and a more athletic feel. Press release and more sketches below the jump. More »
