2012 MINI Roadster Will Be Launched Soon

It’s been nearly two years since the MINI Coupe and Roadster concepts were unveiled at the 2009 Frankfurt auto show. Production is already gearing up, and now based on latest news,  the 2012 Mini Roadster that have been expected by anyone will be announced in June that the Mini Coupe would come 6 months after the Countryman and that 6 months after that, we’d see the drop-top version looking very much like an Audi TT and not as sleek and cool as when they showed a top-down view with the top down.

In line with expectations of car lovers, MINI Roadster comes with power that come from the same range of engines available in the standard Cooper line, including naturally aspirated and turbo 1.6-liter four-cylinders.

If you’ve ever had the unfortunate experience of sitting in the rear seats of a Mini Cooper hatch or convertible, you might have wondered why the second row even exists at all. For anyone larger than a seven-year-old, the back seats serve better use as a parcel shelf than as human-holders. Mini has two solutions to this problem: make the whole car bigger, as it has done with the Countryman, or do away with the seats altogether.

Hearsay, Roadster will officially making production debut later this year, but sales will be conducted at the beginning or the end of 2012
