MINI Paceman JCW Leaked

What can we say about the MINI Paceman, it’s a very conflicting car. Some people argue that it’s not really a crossover, more a car for posers, but 2-door soft-roaders have been around for a while now. Also, it’s got increased practicality over the MINI hatchback, and we think it’s actually better to look at, since the high bonnet line works better on a crossover.

It’s also lighter and slightly lower than a Countryman, but choosing one over the other will always be a personal choice. The engine range is also the same, though one particular configuration had been conspicuously missing, and we didn’t even know if it really existed.

Yes, this is the first showing of the John Cooper Works version of the Paceman, powered by a stronger 1.6-liter turbo engine and offering stiffer suspension. It’s also clearly got the all-wheel drive system installed, since “All4” is written on the side of the car.

Expect a full press release with specs and pricing to pop up shortly!

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
