New MINI One Arrives
The new MINI One makes its debut in Singapore today, and is scheduled to go on sale very soon, in June 2007. This new, entry level compact front-wheel-drive will be entering the market with a 70 kW/95 bhp 1.4-litre four pot that has EU test cycle consumption figures of 5.7 litres/100 kilometres for the 6 speed manual and 6.6 litres/100 kilometres for the 6 speed automatic transmission - approximately 15 per cent less than on the former model.

The engine comes from the 1.6-litre naturally aspirated engine range of the new MINI Cooper, complete with variable valve control developed on the basis of the BMW’s Valvetronic technology.
Efficiency is further enhanced by the volume flow-controlled oil pump as well as the on demand coolant pump only activated once the engine of the new MINI has reached its optimum operating temperature.
Developing maximum output of 140nm and 95 bhp, the four-cylinder power unit of the new car develops 5.5 bhp more power than the previous Mini One.
Acceleration to 100 km/h, for example, comes in just 10.9 seconds for manual transmission and 12.6 seconds for automatic transmission.
Top speed is an impressive 185 km/h for manual transmission and 180 km/h for the auto.
The new MINI One naturally complies in full with EU4 emission standards.
Superior precision in fast bends, in turn, is guaranteed by the new EPAS Electrical Power Assisted Steering.
Occupant safety of genuine premium car standard is ensured, by six
airbags as well as three-point seat belts on all four seats. Standard features for superior active safety include the latest generation of ABS anti-lock brakes, CBC Cornering Brake Control, as well as EBD Electronic Brake Force Distribution.
On the MINI One, the characteristic hexagon radiator grille now features black insert bars to add a special touch of individual style. The caps on the exterior mirrors as well as the handle on the tailgate are also finished in black as a special feature on this model.
The roof finished in body colour likewise contributes to the elegant presence of the new MINI.
