Mini近日携2019款MiniCooper改款车亮相底特律北美车展。这次亮相的车型涵盖双门和四门硬顶版以及敞篷版。不过，这次新车改款幅度不大，包括新的前大灯，尾灯组，更多颜色选择，一些内装改款，显然新车比老款车看上去更可爱一些。从车头看，2019款车型标配卤族前大灯和黑色装饰，而选装的LED大灯不仅更明亮，而且内部集成了随动转向灯，可以照射的范围更宽。新车外观变化很细微，尾部造型更突出一些，可选装LED尾灯组，组成英国国旗图案，很像去年发布的JohnCooperWorksGP概念车。车厂表示，该车的转向灯是水平设置的，而刹车灯是垂直设置的，而日间行驶灯组成了倾斜的国旗图案。这一设计确实很赞！车厢内可选择真皮内饰，包括专门开发的MaltBrownChesterfield真皮。而新的信息娱乐系统标配6.5英寸显示屏，同时可选装8.8英寸具备触控导航功能显示屏。其他高科技包括MiniConnected，它可提供一系列数字服务功能，包括实时路况和4GLTE网络连接功能。支持苹果CarPlay，而个人移动辅助功能可接驳智能手机，形成更合理的行驶路线等等。新车配备新的七速DCT双离合器变速器，另外消费者可以通过Mini Yours Customised选择各种定制化部件。
2019 Mini Hardtop, Convertible Show Minor Refresh In Detroit
Mini bring a refreshed version of its classic Cooper to Detroit for its debut at the North American International Auto Show. The updates apply to both the two-door and four-door hardtop models as well as the convertible, but if you’re struggling to see the differences, don’t worry. In this case, refreshed means new headlights, tail lights, color options, some interior trim, and that’s pretty much it.
Up front, 2019 models get new standard-issue halogen headlights with black accents, while optional LED headlights are brighter and feature a turn-signal indicator that surrounds the entire headlight assembly. The changes are indeed subtle, but things are a bit more pronounced in the back with optional LED tail lights that feature the good old Union Jack flag, much like we saw last year on the John Cooper Works GP concept. More than just a nifty design feature, Mini says the turn signals are horizontally arranged with the brake lights being vertical, while the running lights comprise the diagonal portions of the flag. Neat.
Inside, the 2019 Mini gains new leather trim options, including a color delectably named Malt Brown Chesterfield Leather. There’s also a new infotainment system with a fresh 6.5-inch display as standard equipment, with an 8.8-inch touchscreen nav system as an option. Other new tech includes Mini Connected – a range of digital services that include real-time traffic info with 4G LTE connectivity, Apple CarPlay support, and a personal mobility assistant feature for smartphones which can, among other things, create ideal routes and departure times based on what it finds in the daily calendar on your phone.
There’s also the new seven-speed DCT we previously reported on, though it won't be available on U.S. models. And we can't forget the various customizable bits now available through Mini Yours Customised.
