Parent company BMW confirmed that the models will be built at Mini's Oxford, England plant. Start dates for production will be announced later.
The most likely engine choice is the 1.6-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder from the company's John Cooper Works models that makes 211 horsepower. A 175-horsepower 1.6-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder may also be available, as could a high-performance diesel model.Source: http://www.minicooperreviews.com/
