To be able to confess the people of it over the Mini Cooper, it needs to be as good and as stylish as the Cooper.
1- the interior is sweet and looks good so they need to keep it but I don't see the seats going into the production version
2- the headlights and the taillights are ugly.
3- the design in general looks suitable for the SRT vesrion with more aggressive hood scoop so they need to work on a good looking SE and R/T models
4- the Mini Cooper is the best in class regarding performance and if it were to use the Tiida/Versa platform I guess it's gonna use the 1.8L engine which is good for 9sec run to the 60mph and this is on level with the standard Mini Cooper while the Cooper S is reaching 60mph in the mid-6sec and the JCW might be reach the 60mph in a shorter time. So, the Hornet needs other engines more powerful than the 1.8L.
I hope it's the time for the Hornet and the Demon.
