MINI's Euro lineup to burn less fuel, run cleaner {Autoblog}
Jun 18th 2007 3:47PM Unfortunately, the folks at Mini have decided not to bring their new technology to the states. Looks like I'll be getting a new Honda Fit next year! See below for an email exchange with corporate.

Hi Ryan,
Thanks for contacting MINI. We certainly appreciate your interest in the MINI Cooper.
The regenerative braking and start-stop technology is being implemented in the European spec MINIs for the time being. While our executive level has decided not to bring this technology to U.S. spec vehicles, we are looking into many new ideas for the future of MINI. Please stay in touch with us through MINIUSA.com for updates.
If there are further questions I can assist with, please feel free to drop me an e-mail. I am happy to lend a hand.
LET’S MOTOR.

I was reading about Mini's plan to implement regenerative braking and a start-stop technology into its vehicles later this year. I was wondering if this applies to cars in the U.S. as well and, if not, why not? I think these features would be huge selling points among all audiences.
