Austin

1989 Austin Mini

Minis are small, man. Especially compared to yesterday’s Electra. The Electra isn’t quite twice as long (226 inches to 122 inches), but it’s pretty close. The Mini would fully fit inside the Electra’s 127-inch wheelbase, yet the Electra offered only 40% more passenger volume. Hmm. Something about space efficiency and all that.
