According to Autocar MINI designers Gert Hildebrand and Adrian van Hooydonk think MINI has to slow down so the public gets used to its new offerings before putting more new concepts on the market. Adrian van Hooydonk explains, “We have ideas for MINI in the future, but we need to be careful how we communicate them. MINI is a very sensitive brand.”Even so, MotoringFile's sources say that at next year's Geneva Motor Show a concept for MINI’s smallest car since the original: the “City Car” — a vehicle that’s likely to share a similar footprint to the iconic original - will be revealed.
