The Mini Aceman will be unveiled later this year. There is no official date, but since there has always been talk of spring, it is easy to imagine that the unveiling is very close. Further confirmation comes in the form of photos (unofficial and online via cochespias.net) showing the car ready for production.

As discerning readers will recall, Mini showed some images back in January, with enough camouflage to keep the novelty from being fully visible. Here, however, we get a good look at what it looks like, both front and rear, while the interior remains a mystery.

True to itself

In July 2022 we showed you the Mini Aceman in concept form followed by spy photos and official images released by Mini, confirming the many aesthetic similarities between concept and production model.

The leaked shots show a look very similar to that of the new Countryman, including the front light clusters.

The rear of the Mini Aceman S

At the rear, the headlamp design is as always reminiscent of the Union Jack and another interesting detail we can see is the S version, again distinguished by its yellow colour. The lettering in Oriental characters on the rear, on the other hand, suggests that the shots were taken in China.

The interior of the Aceman still remains a mystery, however it is easy to expect the circular OLED monitor in the centre of the dashboard, like the latest Mini and already present on the concept.
