Before BMW acquired the Mini brand in 1994, it was owned by the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and later by the British Leyland Motor Corporation. The original Mini was launched in 1959 and became an iconic model under BMC. Over the years, ownership changed, and by the late 1980s, it was part of the Rover Group before BMW purchased it.
