MINI Life Cycle Refresh in 2010

MotoringFile reports MINI will refresh the R56 and all of its variants in 2010 with refinement of the interior including the radio controls, heating and cooling systems, upgraded materials, subtle design changes and new interior trim and dashboard options. Outside, the vehicles will have updated xenon and halogen lights, more aggressive front and rear MCS fascia, a tweak to the rear lamps and new color options.

The revisions are expected to debut at the March 2010 Geneva Auto Show and be generally available in late summer for the 2011 model year.
