MINI USA GOES RED, WHITE, AND BLUE TO CELEBRATE HISTORIC SPIRIT OF REBELLION AND INDEPENDENCE THIS FOURTH OF JULY

While independence has been good to MINI, there are “No hard feelings” towards MINI’s British heritage by former colony.
 

Woodcliff Lake, NJ,  July 3, 2025. MINI USA is celebrating the historic spirit of rebellion and independence this Fourth of July with a boldly colored display of Chili Red, Nanuq White and Blazing Blue MINI models. Highlighting key examples of MINI’s all-new product portfolio launched this year, the colorful trio of MINI models posed on the campus of BMW of North America, LLC, of which MINI USA is a part. This patriotic display also helps highlight BMW of North America’s celebration of its 50th milestone anniversary year in the U.S.

As an iconic and uniquely British brand, life for MINI in the U.S. has been grand, with no lingering “hard feelings” towards the brand’s British heritage by the former colony. In fact, MINI sales are up over 29% for Q2 of this year, thanks in part to the all-new product portfolio which launched over the last 18 months, offering eleven model variants in four body styles, including gas and electric models.

The 2025 models on display in patriotic colors include the all-electric MINI Countryman SE ALL4 in Chili Red – MINI’s first tow-rated SUV, a MINI Cooper S 2-door in Nanuq White, representing the authentic Issigonis-inspired concept, and a MINI Cooper S Convertible in Blazing Blue – the latest new model to launch in the portfolio. It may also be worth noting that the trio of red, white, and blue MINIs not only represent the colors of Old Glory, but the same colors of the Union Jack. ;-)
