MINI Beachcomber Concept



BMW, MINI's parent company, says that access to the seats is "exceptionally convenient" in its latest concept. While we can't argue with that, we can't help but notice that any kind of inclement weather or road debris would probably be exceptionally inconvenient. But that's why the all-wheel-drive Beachcomber is a concept, after all. With raised seats, increased suspension travel and relatively giant wheels, it's a fun one, too. Power comes from a 1.6-liter turbocharged inline four. Sadly, no details on projected performance are available.
