Overview

• Machina reframes a petrol JCW as a track‑focused build with auxiliary lamps, widened arches, a Can‑Am‑style rear wing, and a stripped cabin featuring bucket seats, a roll cage, and a hydraulic handbrake.
• Skeg interprets the electric JCW through surf culture with semi‑transparent fiberglass body panels claimed to cut weight by about 15 percent and a surfboard‑influenced flexible rear spoiler.
• The EV’s interior adopts a utilitarian, handcrafted feel with neoprene bucket seats, trays for wetsuits, and storage shelving that Mini describes as a mobile surf shop.
• Both cars carry a large roof “X” signifying the Mini–Deus collaboration and emphasize raw, functional detailing over polish.
• Mini says the concepts are one‑offs set for display at IAA Munich from September 6 with no production plans, though design elements could inform future models, a direction echoed by Head of Mini Stefan Richmann.
