LA Auto Show: MINI Hardtop Gains Two Extra Doors

Have you wanted a MINI, but needed four-doors? Your only choice was the Countryman crossover. But not everyone needs or wants a jacked-up MINI. Well there is an another option coming soon. MINI introduced the 2015 Cooper Hardtop four-door to North America at the LA Auto Show.

Compared to the standard two-door, the four-door's body is 6.3 inches longer and the wheelbase is extended by 2.9 inches. Despite the added length, the four-door looks exactly the same as the two-door. With all of this added length, MINI has been able to add more space to the interior. The back seat seat gains 1.5 inches of legroom, while overall cargo space increases by 9.2 cubic feet.

Chris Potgieter from MINI gives us a preview of this new four-door model.
