Mini Confirms It Will Build Two New Models

Surprise, surprise. In advance of the Frankfurt Motor Show where Mini will show off its Coupe Concept (above), which we brought you last week, the company says it will in fact build two new models. These are in addition to the traditional Cooper, Cooper Convertible and Clubman.

BMW’s chairman Norbert Reithofer confirmed that the Coupe Concept will go into production as will another model, which will be unveiled Sept. 15. That will most likely be the Mini SUV that has been spotted in testing all over the world, even in California. A photo of the SUV concept is below.
