The latest version of BMW ’s iconic Mini, the extended-length Clubman, will now debut at the Los Angeles International Auto Show in November, rather than January’s North American International Auto Show in Detroit, according to MotoringFile. The vehicle will first be shown to the public at the Frankfurt show in September.
This will be the first season for the Los Angeles show to occur before the other major United States auto shows and already the Detroit show is losing some of its introductions. The first major U.S. auto show for manufacturers is the State Fair of Texas show, but it is generally reserved for truck introductions and special edition models, rather than all-new cars. The next big show has traditionally been Detroit in January, followed shortly thereafter by Los Angeles, Chicago and New York.
