Mini Mini rumored to be in the works

Filed under: BMW, Mini, Rumormill

Wolfgang Armbrecht, head of BMW’s Mini brand recently hinted that a smaller small car may be in the works. In an interview with Germany’s Financial Times Deutschland, Ampbrecht admitted that Mini may develop a small car for parent company BMW. We’ve actually heard these rumors before when talk sprang up about the potential for a BMW 0 Series.

If the thought of a Mini Mini crossed with BMW parts makes you excited, you’re not alone. Who could say ‘No’ to the Ultimate Go-Karting Machine? As of yet however, there are no reports of a build timeline or potential specs, but a glimpse of what’s to come is said to be earmarked for next month’s Detroit Auto Show.
