The Rocketman ties in its external dimensions to the classic Mini, which was built from 1959 to 2000 and from 3.05 to 3.40 meters in length. The small dimensions make the park complete Rocketman still more compatible than the Mini sedan. Thus, the practicality is preserved, the manufacturer has come up with good stuff. It starts with getting in and out: The study has as the mini sedan only three doors. This swivel rocker, including opening to the outside.

Luggage tray
Also for the trunk is a separate issue: the lower half of the split tailgate drives like a drawer of 35 cm, while the top as usual swings up. A valve mechanism allows the drawer depending on the load demand, both for above and to the passenger compartment to be closed down. If required, a through loading into the passenger compartment is possible. In addition, the loading using inserts serve as a rear carrier for snowboards and the like. The opening to the top flap can also be opened when the rear carrier is fitted.
