Fun results of Mini’s center rail design comp

Mini drew a lot of interesting concepts for their design competition launched back in March, which sought to draw ideas for things to place on the center rail that runs the length of the Countryman’s interior. So many, in fact, that Mini took the winning concepts and presented them, prototype-style, at the Paris Motor Show.

Top prize went to Berlin-based Satoshi Nakamura for his in-car fireplace, and the runner-up was UK-based Chris Townsend for his in-car karaoke concept. On the competition’s website you can see all of the entries, ranging from an in-car marble bowling alley and a projector that turns the Countryman into a self-contained drive-in when it’s time to pull over. There’s just about 1,000 entries to browse through.
