This Classic Honda Mini Car Is Getting a Big Superbike Horsepower Boost

It's tiny, it's yellow, and it's a distinctly vintage hatchback. No, it's not a Mini; it's a Honda N600 from the early 1970s. Originally, it came with a tiny little 600cc-ish kei car engine that, on a good day, under ideal conditions, made about 40 entire horsepower.

Mini's New Infotainment System Is Charming: Review

Most infotainment systems aren't very fun. They do their jobs, sometimes well, getting you the information you need. Nothing more, nothing less.

The original Mini Cooper had a tiny 1.0-liter engine with just about 40 horsepower, giving it a top speed of around 90 miles per hour. Perfectly adequate for the day. But as you could probably tell by its chopped roof (and other things), this Mini is far from factory original.

For the all-new J01, Mini shifted the electric Cooper from its own platform to one co-developed with China’s Great Wall Motor. This made the new model a much better EV than before, but some of the go-kart feel to its handling was lost. AC Schnitzer has a few mods that…
