KE MIN

ʻO ka moʻolelo o ka mīkini kaʻa MINI ka moʻolelo o ke ala lōʻihi a paʻakikī e hiki ai i kahi kaʻa ke hele i ke ala lōʻihi o kona hoʻokumu ʻana. ʻO ka MINI ponoʻī he ʻano o nā sedans subcompact, hatchbacks a me nā coupes. I ka wā mua, hāʻawi ʻia ka manaʻo o ka hoʻomohala ʻana a me ka hana ʻana o MINI i kahi hui o nā ʻenekinia mai ka British Motor Corporation. ʻO ka hoʻomohala ʻana o ka manaʻo a me ka manaʻo, a me ke kaʻa holoʻokoʻa, mai ka makahiki 1985. Ua loaʻa kēia mau kaʻa i kahi lua kūpono i ka nānā ʻana o nā haneli o nā loea honua "The Best Car of the XNUMXth Century." ʻO ka mea hoʻokumu ʻo Leonard Percy Lord, ʻo 1st Baron Lambury KBE i hānau ʻia ma 1896 he poʻo kiʻi i ka ʻoihana kaʻa Pelekane. Ua puka 'o ia mai ke kula me ka mana'o 'ike loea, akā i ka makahiki 16, ua koi 'ia 'o ia e 'au'au manuahi ma hope o ka make 'ana o kona makuakāne. I kēia manawa, ua ho'omaka ka Haku e ho'ohana ikaika i ka 'ike loea i loa'a ma ke kula, a i ka makahiki 1923, ua komo 'o ia i Morris Motors Limited, kahi i kōkua ai i ka ho'oikaika 'ana i nā pae a pau o ke ka'ina hana. I ka makahiki 1927, i ka wā i loaʻa ai iā Morris nā kuleana e hoʻokele iā Wolseley Motors Limited, ua hoʻoneʻe ʻia ʻo Leonard ma laila no ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i kā lākou mau mea hana a me nā kaʻina hana. I ka makahiki 1932, ua koho ʻia ʻo ia i luna nui ma Morris Motors. I hoʻokahi makahiki wale nō ma hope mai, i ka makahiki 1933, mahalo i kāna hana maikaʻi, ua loaʻa iā Leonard Lord ke kūlana o ka luna hoʻokele o ka hui holoʻokoʻa ʻo Morris Motors Limited a ua lilo koke ʻo ia i inoa multimillionaire. I ka makahiki 1952, ua hoʻohui ʻia ka hui lōʻihi o nā ʻoihana ʻelua no Lord - ʻo kāna ʻoihana ponoʻī ʻo Austin Motor Company a me Morris Motors, ʻo ia ke alakaʻi i nā makahiki 30. I ka manawa like, komo ka British Motor Corporation i ka mākeke automotive UK. ʻO ka pilikia ʻo Suez i puka mai i kēlā mau makahiki ua pili pū me nā pilikia o ka hoʻolako ʻana i ka aila. Ua maopopo e hiki ke loli ke kumu kuai wahie. Koi ʻia ke kūlana o kēia manawa i ka Haku e hana i kahi kaʻa subcompact, ʻoiai ka liʻiliʻi a me ka lumi. I ka makahiki 1956, ua koho ka British Motor Corporation, alakaʻi ʻia e Leonard Lord, i kahi hui o ʻewalu mau kānaka e hana i ke kaʻa liʻiliʻi loa o ia manawa. Ua koho ʻia ʻo Alec Issigonis i poʻo o ka hui. Ua kapa ʻia ka papahana ʻo ADO-15. ʻO kekahi o nā pahuhopu o ka hoʻomohala ʻana i kēia kaʻa ʻo ia ka ākea o ka pahu a me ka noho ʻoluʻolu o nā kānaka ʻehā. Ma o 1959 ʻO ke kumu hana mua "The Orange Box" i ʻōwili ʻia mai ka laina hui. I Mei, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka hana conveyor o ka laina mua. ʻO ka huina, ua ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻelua a me ka hapa makahiki e hana i nā mīkini mua o ka laina MINI. I kēia manawa, ua hoʻomākaukau ʻo British Motor Corporation i nā pūnaewele hou a kūʻai aku i ka nui o nā lako no ka hana ʻana i nā kaʻa hou. Ua hoʻohana ka poʻe ʻenekinia i nā ʻenehana kiʻekiʻe loa a hana i nā hoʻokolohua hou aʻe. Emblem Ua loli ka mōʻaukala o ka hōʻailona o ka mīkini kaʻa MINI me nā mea nona nā pilikia kaʻa. I ka hui ʻana o nā ʻoihana kaʻa, ua hoʻokumu ʻia nā hui hou, ua loli pū ka logo. ʻO ka hōʻailona mua o ka hōʻailona kaʻa MINI he ʻano pōʻai, kahi i hele ai ʻelua mau kaha e like me nā ʻēheu i nā ʻaoʻao. Ua kākau ʻia kekahi ʻēheu me ka inoa ʻo Morris a ʻo kekahi ʻēheu ʻo Cooper. Ua kau ʻia ka hōʻailona o ka hui ma waenakonu o ka hōʻailona. I nā makahiki, ua hoʻololi pinepine nā hui ʻana o nā inoa Morris, Cooper a me Austin i kekahi i kekahi, i hui pū ʻia i ka hōʻailona o ka brand. Ua loli pinepine ka manaʻo o ka logo. I ka wā mua, ʻo ia nā ʻēheu e puka ana mai ka pōʻai. Ma hope mai, ua lawe ʻia ka hōʻailona i ke ʻano o kahi pale stylized me ka huaʻōlelo MINI. I kēia manawa ke ʻike nei mākou i ka hoʻololi hou o ka emblem. Hōʻike ia i ka leka 'MINI' i nā leka nui, i hoʻopili ʻia e nā fender hou. Lawe ʻia ka logo i kahi haʻahaʻa semantic maopopo. ʻO ia ka wikiwiki a me ke kūʻokoʻa, me kahi kaʻa liʻiliʻi. Ua kapa ʻia ʻo ia i kekahi manawa ʻo ka "wili ʻēheu". ʻO ka hōʻano hou o ka logo i hana ʻia ma 2018. Mai ia manawa, ʻaʻole i hoʻololi ʻia, akā ke kamaʻilio nei nā mea nona ka brand i kahi hoʻololi hou i ka emblem. ʻO ka mōʻaukala o ke kaʻa i nā hiʻohiʻona Ua hōʻuluʻulu ʻia nā laina mua o nā kaʻa MINI ma Oxford a me Birmingham. ʻO Morris Mini Minor lāua ʻo Austin Seven. Ua lawe ʻia nā kaʻa ma lalo o nā inoa ʻē aʻe e pili ana i ka nui o ka mīkini. Ma nā ʻāina ʻē, ʻo Austin 850 kēia a me Morris 850. ʻO ka hoʻāʻo mua o ka MINI kaʻa i hōʻike i nā mea hoʻomohala i nā hemahema i ka wai wai. Ua loaʻa a hoʻoponopono ʻia nā hemahema a pau e ka hale hana. Ma mua o ka makahiki 1960, ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻelua a me ka hapa tausani kaʻa i hana ʻia i kēlā me kēia pule. Hoʻokuʻu koke ka hui i nā hoʻololi hou: Morris Mini Traveler a me Austin Seven Countryman. Ua hāpai ʻia lāua ʻelua i ka sedan, akā ua hoʻomau i ka subcompact like. I ka makahiki 1966, hui pū ʻo British Motor Corporation a me Jaguar e hoʻokumu i ka British Motor Holdings. Ua hoʻolaha koke nā luna i ka hōʻemi ʻana o nā mea hana ma mua o 10. ʻO kēia ma muli o ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka mana ma luna o nā koina o ka hui. I ka pau ʻana o nā kanaono, ua ʻike ʻia ka Austin Mini Metro a loaʻa ka kaulana. Eia kekahi, ua kaulana kēia kŘkohu ma lalo o ka inoa Mini Shortie. ʻO kēia inoa ma muli o ke kumu o ke kumu hoʻohālike. ʻAʻole i hoʻolālā nā mea hana e hana i kēia kaʻa no ke kūʻai nui ʻana. ʻO ke kumu o ka hana ʻana i ka Mini Shortie ʻo ia ka hoʻolaha a me ke kūʻai aku. Ua hana ʻia lākou i loko o kahi kino hiki ke hoʻololi ʻia, he 1,4-lita ka mīkini a ʻaʻole i wikiwiki wikiwiki a hiki i 140 km / h. Ma kahi o 200 wale nō o lākou i hana ʻia, a he kakaikahi wale nō o lākou i paʻa i luna a me nā puka. ʻAʻohe puka o nā "convertibles", no laila pono ʻoe e lele i loko o lākou ma nā ʻaoʻao. Ua kūkulu ʻia ka ʻāpana o nā kaʻa MINI ma nā ʻoihana like ʻole o ka hui, aia ma Sepania, Uruguay, Belgium, Chile, Italia, Yugoslavia, etc. I ka makahiki 1961, ua lilo ka ʻenekinia kaulana o ka hui Cooper, i hoʻokūkū i ka Formula 1, i ka laina Mini Cooper. Ua hele mai ʻo ia me ka manaʻo e hoʻomaikaʻi i ke kaʻa ma ke kau ʻana i kahi ʻenekini me ka hoʻonui ʻia o ka mana ma lalo o ka puʻupuʻu. Me kona hoʻohana ʻana a me ka maneuverability, ʻo ka mīkini i hoʻoikaika ʻia e hana i ke kaʻa i mea ʻole. A pela iho la. ʻO ke kumu hoʻohālike hou ʻo Mini Cooper S i ka makahiki 1964 i lilo i alakaʻi o nā lāhui honua - Rally Monte Carlo. No kekahi mau makahiki i ka lālani, ua lanakila nā kime i hana ma kēia kükohu i ka makana. ʻAʻole kūlike kēia mau mīkini. I ka makahiki 1968, he heihei hope loa, i leialii ia me kahi wahi lanakila. I ka makahiki 1968, ua hui hou ia. Ua hui pū ʻo British Motor Holdings me Leyland Motors. Ma muli o kēia hui ʻana, ua hoʻokumu ʻia ka British Leyland Motor Corporation. I ka makahiki 1975, ua kapa ʻia ʻo ia i ka inoa ʻo Rover Group. I ka makahiki 1994, kūʻai ʻo BMW i ka Rover Group, a ma hope iho, i ka makahiki 2000, ua hoʻopau hope ʻia ka Rover Group. Mālama ʻo BMW i ka mana o ka mīkini kaʻa MINI. Ma hope o nā merger āpau, ke hoʻomōhala nei nā ʻenekini o ka hopohopo i nā kaʻa e like me ka hiki ke hoʻohālikelike MINI kumu hoʻohālikelike. Ma 1998 wale nō, hoʻomohala a hana ʻo Frank Stevenson i ka Mini One R50 ma nā hale hana BMW. Ua hoʻopau ʻia ke kaʻa hope loa o ka laina Mini Mark VII mua a waiho ʻia i ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike ʻo British Motor. Ma 2001, hoʻomaka ka hoʻomohala ʻana o nā kaʻa MINI ma nā mea kanu BMW me ka MINI Hatch. I ka makahiki 2005, hoʻonui ka hui i ka waihona kālā e hoʻonui i ke kahe o nā kaʻa i hana ʻia ma ka mea kanu Oxford. I ka makahiki 2011, ua hoʻolaha ʻia ʻelua mau hiʻohiʻona hou o ka brand MINI kaʻa. Ua hoʻomohala ʻia nā mea hou ma ke kumu o kā lākou ʻohana kahiko, akā pili pono - Mini Paceman. I kēia mau lā, ke hoʻomaka nei ka hoʻomohala ʻana o ke kaʻa uila MINI brand ma ka mea kanu kaulana ʻo Oxford. Ua hoʻolaha ʻia kēia ma 2017 e BMW. Q&A: ʻO wai ka mea hana i ka Mini Cooper? ʻO Mini ka mea hana kaʻa Pelekane (i hoʻokumu ʻia ma 1959). I ka makahiki 1994, ua lawe ʻia ka hui e BMW. He aha nā Mini Coopers? Hōʻikeʻia ka hōʻailona Pelekania e kaʻoiaʻiʻo, hiki keʻikeʻia i nā hiʻohiʻona a pau. Hoʻokumu ka hui i nā mea hoʻololi, nā kaʻa kaʻa a me nā crossovers. No ke aha i kapa ʻia ai ʻo Mini Cooper?
