The facelifted 2021 Mini Cooper S has been photographed driving on the streets of Holland ahead of its official unveiling. These grainy spy pics, posted by CocheSpias, show a darker, more aggressive, simplified front end for Mini's hot hatch. In a departure for the Cooper S, all exterior chrome accents have been replaced by bold gloss black finishes, while the headlights also look to be tinted. Meanwhile, fog lights are no longer integrated into the front bumper.

BMW has announced a new, bolder direction for the company, with policies designed to reduce environmental impacts from the manufacturing of new cars. At the forefront of the new climate-change strategy is a range of electric models, confirming for the first time a fully-electric 5 Series and X1 SUV are in development.
