The World’s First Vehicle to be Powered by a Tea-Leaf Biofuel

MINI at the forefront of technology have enhanced their sustainability credentials with the new MINI Cooper T

A revolutionary addition to the MINI range,  is available in a variety of colours including ‘Chamomile Yellow’, ‘Red Bush’ and ‘Earl Grey’. The new model is bound to cause a real stir in the motor industry when it’s served up later this month.

“This particular project has been brewing for years”Dr. Ivana Kuppa, Cooper T Engineering

The new Tea Leaf biofuel enables the new car to cover up to 40 miles on a single cup. The Cooper T certainly isn’t what you’d call thirsty although it brings strong performance, not weak at all. It boasts all the standard features you would expect, with VVT, ABS and DSC, but the Cooper T also benefits from DAT or Dunk Avoidance Technology. This ingenious filtration system stops peckish owners and opportunistic passersby from inserting biscuits into the MINI T’s fuel tank in order to moisten their snacks.

Head of Cooper T engineering, Dr. Ivana Kuppa, said, “This particular project has been brewing for years. Our extensive research has shown that the nation’s favourite drink is also an ideal biofuel. We already know good things come in small packages, but with Cooper T customers benefitting from up to 40 miles per cup, we are delighted to have the opportunity to bring this car to market.”

MINI customers in the Gloucestershire area can get a first taste of the Cooper T at MINI Cotswold Gloucester on 1 April, where the vehicle will be displayed.
