Mini is a British automotive brand founded in 1959 with the launch of the original Mini, designed by Sir Alec Issigonis for the British Motor Corporation (BMC). The car became iconic for its compact size, efficient front-wheel-drive layout, and role in 1960s pop culture. Famous models included the Mini Cooper and its racing variants, which enjoyed success in rally competitions. Today, under BMW ownership since 2000, Mini produces modern versions such as the Hatch, Clubman, Countryman, and electric Mini Cooper SE, blending retro styling with modern technology.
