MINI TAKES THE STATES (MTTS) 2022, the legendary MINI owners rally hosted by MINI USA, kicked off this weekend from Farr’s Field in Waterbury, Vermont. Over the next five days, over 2,000 MINI owners with over 600 MINI Cooper vehicles from across the model range will explore a total of nine states and eight cities, raising money for Best Friends Animal Society, a leading animal welfare organization dedicated to ending the euthanizing of dogs and cats in American animal shelters by 2025. The kickoff also marks the debut of the MINI Motoring Club of America (MMCA), a new national MINI car club for MINI owners and enthusiasts open to MINI owners from across the country. Making its return after four years, the biennial MTTS trek will cover more than 1,700 miles in total. MINI owners will be traveling down an inland route from Vermont to South Carolina on state and county roads, stopping in eight cities along the way, with more than 80 pets and their owners coming along for the ride.
This summer also sees the launch of major new partnerships bringing the MOKE experience to locations that perfectly reflect the car’s unique character. For guests at Beaverbrook, the quintessentially English country house estate, the MOKE Electric’s whisper-quiet, sustainable drivetrain makes it the ideal companion for savouring the peaceful countryside and secluded lanes of the Surrey Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the south of England.And on the Côte d’Azur, with its local partners, MOKE is opening its first official experience centre, “Casa MOKE” in Saint-Tropez, building towards its vision to become the world’s most loved beach lifestyle brand. International clients of luxury real-estate company Bo-House and Tardieu Immobilier will have access to an exclusive monthly subscription package. This allows them to enjoy the freedom and joy of driving an Electric MOKE while in residence, without the administrative commitments of outright ownership. The battery has sufficient range (120km) for at least three round trips from Cap-Ferrat to Monaco, at a suitably leisurely 80km/h.
