More practical, family friendly Mini on the horizonThese spy pictures are the first definite proof that Mini is working on a more conventional five-door version of its staple small hatchback. As first revealed by Autocar in June, the new five-door Mini has a longer wheelbase and two short, conventionally hinged rear doors. The overhang at the back has been increased to house a bigger boot, something disguised by a sharply raked tailgate. The rear doors are primarily designed to allow easy access for children, although a knock-on effect is shorter front doors, which should allow adults easier access in tight spaces. Despite a longer wheelbase, the new Mini five-door will still be less than 4. 0m long. The three-door model will also be longer than the car it replaces. Пяці-дзвярная версія Mini-гэта ў адказ на зніжэнне папулярнасці трехдверной мадэлі, праблема для рынку ў цэлым, а не толькі міні. Трох-дзвярныя і пяці-дзвярныя хэтчбэкі будуць мадэлі запусцяць у новае трэцяе пакаленне міні лініі-да канца наступнага года. Новы суб-4. 0м пятідверного варыянт таксама будзе працаваць у 10-мадэль-моцныя новыя міні-лініі па вялікай пятідверного хэтчбэк-дыплом-MPV, які крыніцы называюць Spacebox. Its addition to the range will allow the second generation of the Countryman to be a much truer SUV, rather than having to combine the roles of hatchback and SUV.

The five-door version of the Mini is in response to the declining popularity of three-door models, a problem for the market as a whole and not just Mini. The three-door and five-door hatchbacks are expected to be the launch models in the new third-generation Mini line-up late next year. The new sub-4. 0m five-door variant will also be joined in the 10-model-strong new Mini line-up by a larger five-door hatchback-cum-MPV, which sources are referring to as the Spacebox. Its addition to the range will allow the second generation of the Countryman to be a much truer SUV, rather than having to combine the roles of hatchback and SUV.
