Overview Information
Despite the charm of the Mini Cooper, some consider it just too small to be practical. For these skeptics, Mini offers the Clubman, available in Cooper and Cooper S trim levels. The small access door allows better interior access while the extended wheelbase and length (an extra 9.45") ensures better comfort for rear seat passengers. The Clubman Cooper is powered by a 120-bhp 1.6L inline-4; the Cooper S gets a turbo good for 175-bhp. Transmission choices include a 6-speed manual or automatic that routes power to the front wheels. Options are grouped into several packages. The Premium package includes a wood or leather-rimmed steering wheel, sunroof, and A/C. The Sport package includes items such as 17-inch wheels, sport seats, racing stripes, xenon headlights, and fog lamps. The Mini Cooper Clubman occupies a unique niche as a premium subcompact. While most buyers prefer a larger car at the $20K+ price point, the Mini has a loyal owner base that ensures its continuing popularity.
What Changed:
The Clubman gains a new higher performance factory model, the John Cooper Works Clubman.
