MINI has revealed the John Cooper Works concept, which is scheduled to make its debut in January at the 2014 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit.
The German luxury carmaker, BMW that recently introduced the third-generation MINI, is now aiming to enhance its lineup by presenting the hotter John Cooper Works variant, which is expected to go in production by the mid of the next year. MINI will show the concept at the Detroit Auto Show, which is expected to remain same in production form as well.
Based on the latest generation MINI, the vehicle has longer wheelbase and wider track over the outgoing model. It is said to be more powerful, punchy and agile than previous generation Mini models. The front apron of the MINI John Cooper Works Concept features a large air intakes, precisely formed air-channelling elements, LED headlights and a black surround for the front grille. The model-specific John Cooper Works aerodynamic kit also comprises specially contoured side skirts and a rear apron with flaps and a diffuser element. The study car further features a roof spoiler and additional body components designed to channel air efficiently around the C-pillars for optimised aerodynamic balance at high speeds.
The concept has been painted in Bright Highways Grey with red accents and rides on a new set of 18-inch alloy wheels. The production version of the John Cooper Works is expected to be powered by a 2.0-litre turbo producing around 217bhp.
