With this concept created by the trainees, BMW and MINI wanted to showcase the talents of its most recent collaborators. Basically they took the Paceman Cooper S and gave it a two-seat cockpit and the rear was replaced by a cargo area in the style of a pick-up.

The Paceman Adventure gets the turbocharged engine from the 184hp all-wheel drive version Paceman Cooper S ALL4.

The powerful turbo engine, the ALL4 four-wheel drive, a modified suspension and various available resources mean that this versatile car is ready for anything. Name: MINI Paceman Adventure. The interior finishes behind the front seats, where the spacious cargo area for luggage, tools and equipment begins. Furthermore, the vehicle has crossbars which can carry a spare tire.

According to MINI, the Paceman Adventure is ready for driving on gravel roads, through muddy or desert trails. The pick-up has the typical short overhangs of any MINI model but receives a frame with a higher distance to the ground, with higher safety margins both at the front and rear. The snorkel-like air intake at the roof level means the MINI Paceman Adventure is prepared to cross an area of ​​deep waters.

Finally, the Paceman Adventure still receives additional lights mounted at the front of the roof to optimize nighttime visibility. Special off-road tires with wider and deeper treads ensure better traction.

The MINI Paceman Adventure is a one-off vehicle and there is no intention for it to make it into production.
