MINI is geared up for an Asian debut at the Tokyo Motor Show this month; plus there is a new car concept that will be displayed at the Show and later added to the MINI lineup. MINI is scheduled for an Asian launch in February next year when MINI vehicles hit the showrooms in Japan.
The vehicle is likely to be received hands on in Asia, because the small car or minicar market is a sprawling one on this continent. With such strong and unquestionable credentials as the MINI, the car is likely to be an instant hit in Japan.

Press Release:
MINI, the world-famous premium manufacturer, is celebrating a very special debut in Asia at the 40th Tokyo Motor Show, with the new MINI Clubman
to be admired for the first time in the capital city of Japan from 26 October - 11 November 2007 at the Makuhari Fairgrounds.
Approximately one year after the launch of the new model generation,
MINI is enlarging its model range by an equally innovative and irresistible car concept scheduled for introduction in the Japanese market in February 2008.
The MINI Clubman, through its truly surprising design, stands out clearly from conventional concepts and categories. Unmistakably a MINI from every angle, the five-seater MINI Clubman, through its unique rear end and exceptional proportions, captures maximum awareness right from the start.
The MINI Clubman is truly fascinating through its qualities typical of the brand and the many possibilities it has to offer. At the wheel of this unique car the driver will enjoy pure driving pleasure with the same sporting performance and thrilling behaviour as in every MINI. And behind the front seats the passengers at the rear will discover a new MINI experience, with enhanced inner values and extroverted flair. For the combination of that typical MINI feeling with lounge-like seating comfort at the rear, flexible use of space available and a unique door concept makes the MINI Clubman quite unmistakably an unparalleled car in its own right.
