Irvine MINI, Announces MINIs Have Been Selected By Kbb.com As "2010 Top Fast-Lane Four-Cylinder" Vehicles

June 14, 2010 – Irvine, Calif. - Irvine MINI proud to announce, MINI Cooper S and John Cooper Works, have been selected for “2010 Top Fast-Lane Four-Cylinder” list by Kelley Blue Book.
The kbb.com editors studied and selected a list of high performance vehicles with four-cylinders that were finely crafted combinations of variable valve and/or camshaft timing. The vehicles selected had a direct fuel injection and generally teamed with either supercharging or turbo charging, which delivered a synergistic blend of adrenaline and efficiency that represents a more-than-fair tradeoff.
