The Next Mini Cooper?

An all-electric version of the hot-selling two-door Mini Cooper is front and center at this year's Los Angeles Auto Show (Nov. 19-30). The BMW-owned (BMWG.F) British brand of Lilliputian cars initially plans to lease 500 of the vehicles to customers in the U.S. by yearend. Dubbed the Mini E, the vehicle will test BMW's ability to put a green tint on its powerhouse image. Already, nearly 10,000 U.S. drivers have applied to pay $850 a month for a yearlong contract.
