The Mini Paceman is a three-door subcompact crossover SUV sold and manufactured by BMW under the Mini brand. It is the three-door counterpart of the R60 Mini Countryman. It was introduced as the Paceman Concept at the 2011 North American International Auto Show. The production model debuted in September 2012.[2]
Like the Countryman, the Paceman was offered with a choice of two or four-wheel drive (known as ALL4), and with 1.6-litre petrol or diesel and 2.0-litre diesel inline four engines in various states of tune.[2] Unlike most of the Mini range, the Paceman was not manufactured in the UK but in Graz, Austria, by Magna Steyr, along with the Countryman.
BMW ended production of the Paceman in late 2016 as BMW executives felt it was positioned too close to the Countryman in Mini’s line-up.[3] [4]
The model derivatives followed a similar pattern to the Mini Hatch, with a choice of Cooper/Cooper D, Cooper S/Cooper SD and John Cooper Works derivatives.
The Cooper Petrol 1220NaN0 and the Cooper D 1120NaN0, the Cooper S Petrol 1840NaN0, the John Cooper Works 2210NaN0 and the Cooper SD Diesel producing 1430NaN0. The availability of models varied between markets.
The All4 all-wheel drive option was available on variable models depending on the market.
