List of mini models with propane for sale

After the Suez crisis of 1956, European automakers needed small, fuel-efficient vehicles for the general market. The fuel became increasingly scarce, leading to higher prices and more people looking for economic vehicles. With the popularity of the Volkswagen Beetle, the British Motor Company wanted to design a small vehicle that, in addition, allowed the lodging and storage of passengers. From this idea comes the first mini, an icon of the 60s and one of the most famous and loved cars in history.

In July 2001, under the leadership of BMW, the MINI Hatch will be presented. With the design of Frank Stephenson, the new MINI has quickly become a very popular icon around the world. MINI cars were produced at the Oxford plant in the United Kingdom. The plant received several improvements, as well as a larger number of employees. In 2006, engines still manufactured in Brazil were remanufactured in the United Kingdom, which would make the MINI entirely produced in the United Kingdom. In 2006, BMW will present its second generation MINI in a remodeled platform that focuses on sportier driving and presents economic versions such as the MINI D that featured a diesel engine designed by Toyota.
