This included a very specific wheel design. Mini named these 17-inch wheel the Corona Spoke.
A Mini spokesperson said in an interview with Car Buzz,
“Although the name of this wheel design was in place a good time prior to the current pandemic, we’re making sure all marketing and consumer communications materials are being updated to reflect the new name of this wheel design. It’s simply the right thing to do.”
The new name of the wheels with a funky design is the Power Spoke.
I say wise decision, Mini.
