The most fuel efficient car - MINI RS


The MINI, widely known for it's nostalgic, cute, sporty styling is also well know for it's handling, ride and fuel efficiency, with petrol prices hiking up like nobody's business, MINI USA had reported earlier that it's completely sold out till 2009.

However over at China, MINI had did a limited, lease only MINI RS with ZERO emissions and unlimited KM/ ZERO liter. Sound's incredible isn't it? Hit the jump to check out the MINI RS.



MINI China did a publicity stunt with the MINI RS (A Wheels Weekly dub for the MINI RickShaw)

Cutting a Clubman in half, tagging it along to a pedicab is MINI's interesting effort of introducing the MINI Clubman to China, making it in time to catch up with the Olympic Games.

Part publicity part viral marketing stunt, the MINI Richshaw was said to have achieved the widespread publicity intended. Thou interesting, we wouldn't wanna be the guy who get's to pedal this 'exclusive' rickshaw, and a broken back from an 'overworked' employee isn't something exactly human right-ish for MINI.

On second thoughts: GM, do not launch the HUMMER H3 in such a manner.
