45 MPG And Modern Look For 2014 MINI

AutoGuide.com says the upcoming F56, to debut in the fall of 2013,

 "will reportedly gain a more aggressive look"

with

"a brand-new 1.5-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder engine, with roughly 120 hp in the base Cooper and 180 hp in the Cooper S." 

The new platform is supposed to have room for a 4-cylinder engine which MINI will probably use in John Cooper Works models. Large mileage gains are also expected -

"40 mpg highway for the Cooper S and 45 mpg highway for the base Cooper."
