  equipment features and the latest technology in the areas of operation
  and connectivity, the new MINI Clubman hones its profile as a stylish
  individualist in the premium compact segment. Combining hallmark MINI
  driving fun with a high level of suitability for both day-to-day
  driving and long-distance travel, the variable 5-seater now gains
  additional charisma with fresh accentuations for the exterior and
  interior. The latest updates in the range of MINI Connected digital
  services underscore the progressive, lifestyle-oriented character of
  the new MINI Clubman. Meanwhile, attractive additions to the programme
  of optional equipment features and Original MINI Accessories provide
  further possibilities for customisation.</p>
<p>Ride comfort, space and variability define the all-round properties
  of the new MINI Clubman, its modern interpretation of the classic
  shooting brake concept establishing a distinctive style within the
  compact segment. Four side doors and five seats along with a versatile
  luggage compartment behind the two split doors at the rear ensure a
  high degree of functionality and the kind of creative use of space
  that is characteristic of MINI.</p>
<p>Hallmark brand agility is guaranteed by the modern engine portfolio
  and the high-quality suspension technology fitted in the new MINI
  Clubman. There is a choice of three petrol* engines and three diesel*
  engines, with output ranging from 75 kW/102 hp to 141 kW/192 hp
  (combined fuel consumption: 6.5 – 4.0 l/100 km; combined
  CO<sub>2</sub> emissions: 147 – 105 g/km). If they wish, customers can
  also opt to combine the all-wheel drive system ALL4 with the most
  powerful petrol and diesel engines. The model range will be
  supplemented at a later stage with the new edition of the extremely
  sporty MINI John Cooper Works Clubman.</p>
<p>
  <strong>The new MINI Clubman: an overview of the highlights.</strong></p>
<p>•       Distinctive front design with newly designed radiator
  grill.<br />•       LED headlights with Matrix function for the high
  beam.<br />•       New LED fog lamps with driving light
  ring.<br />•       LED rear lights as standard, optionally in Union
  Jack design.<br />•       New body colours, new option Piano Black
  exterior.<br />•       New light alloy wheels. <br />•       Sports
  suspension with vehicle lowered by 10 millimetres.<br />•       New
  range of leather trims and interior surfaces.<br />•       New MINI
  Yours equipment programme. <br />•       MINI Connected with new
  functions.<br />•       Extended range of Original MINI Accessories.</p>
<p>
  <strong>Expressive and powerful: new distinctive front design.</strong></p>
<p>The body design of the new MINI Clubman is stylish, individual and
  exclusive. Its distinctive proportions result from a body corpus
  modelled in tight, sporty style as is typical of MINI, a dynamically
  elongated roof line and a steep rear. In addition, the split doors
  consisting of two laterally opening wings make it the only model in
  the compact segment to offer six doors, along with outstanding
  versatility due to the fact that the luggage compartment can be
  extended from 360 litres to as much as 1 250 litres according to needs.</p>
<p>The individual body concept is combined with hallmark brand design
  elements. At the front of the vehicle these mainly include the
  powerfully domed bonnet, the circular headlamps – of which the
  surrounds are in chrome as standard and optionally in Piano Black –
  and the hexagonal contour of the radiator grille. The most striking
  design feature of the new MINI Clubman is the newly designed radiator
  grille, which now extends across the entire bumper. With powerfully
  modelled contours and a new structure for the air inlet, it gives the
  front view a particularly distinctive appearance. The radiator grille
  is bordered by a slim frame produced from a single piece. The air
  inlet is separated into six black, horizontal struts, which can be
  optionally upgraded to a chrome version. Specific features in the
  front section of the models MINI Cooper S Clubman and
  MINI Cooper SD Clubman are the hexagonal grid pattern instead of the
  horizontal struts and the individual chrome strut in the air inlet as
  well as the latter’s chrome-plated emblem with a red “S” at the centre.</p>
<p>
  <strong>Variable illumination intensity, dazzle-free long beam:
    adaptive LED headlights with Matrix function.</strong></p>
<p>The characteristic look of the new MINI Clubman from the front is
  also a result of the modified design of the circular headlamps. The
  standard halogen headlamps now have an enlarged reflector and a
  striking black shield on the inside. The daytime driving light is
  integrated in the parking lights in the lower section of the front
  apron. The optional LED headlamps likewise feature a new design. The
  modified styling includes LED modules for low and high beam, which
  generate enhanced brightness, and a shield that is also finished in
  black. A white ring of light surrounding the headlamps serves both as
  daytime driving light and turn indicator.</p>
<p>The adaptive LED headlamps with Matrix function for the high beam are
  available as a new option. They offer a turning light function which
  can be recognised by an inlay inside the headlamp and automatically
  adapt their brightness to the situation on the road. In urban traffic
  and when visibility is limited due to the weather conditions, the side
  area of the road is illuminated more intensely by adding the dimmed
  turning light. When driving on motorways it is possible to selectively
  increase the range of the high beam.</p>
<p>What is more, the adaptive LED headlamps of the new MINI Clubman now
  feature an automatic selective dip function for the high beam. Their
  innovative Matrix technology for the high beam enables the visibility
  range to be increased while at the same time avoiding any dazzle
  effect for other road users. For this purpose, the high beam is
  subdivided into four segments which can be activated and deactivated
  independently of each other and adapted to the situation on the road
  at speeds of over 70 km/h. As soon as the front camera of the new MINI
  Clubman registers an oncoming vehicle or a vehicle driving ahead, the
  space that vehicle occupies is only illuminated at low beam brightness.</p>
<p>LED fog lamps are available as an additional optional equipment item
  for the MINI Clubman. These take the place of the standard parking
  lights and offer an additional daytime driving light function
  implemented in the form of an LED light right.</p>
<p>
  <strong>LED rear lights as standard, optionally available in Union
    Jack design.</strong></p>
<p>The new MINI Clubman is now fitted as standard with LED rear lights.
  The light units with chrome surround are now especially integrated in
  the wings of the split door. In conjunction with the optional LED
  headlamps or the adaptive LED headlamps, the horizontally oriented
  rear lights feature a new design that underscores the brand’s British
  origins: the graphic structure of their light sources traces the
  abstracted pattern of the Union Jack. With its striking lines, the
  flag motif provides a distinctive form of identification – both during
  the day and in terms of night design. The brake light is now also
  generated from this newly designed light unit.</p>
<p>
  <strong>Fresh look with new body finishes and Piano Black exterior.</strong></p>
<p>Three new colour variants are available to choose from in terms of
  body finishes. The new MINI Clubman is now available in Indian Summer
  Red metallic, British Racing Green metallic or MINI Yours Enigmatic
  Black metallic. As an alternative to body colour, the roof and
  exterior mirror caps can also be finished in black, white or silver.</p>
<p>What is more, the list of optional equipment items offers further
  ways of customising the exterior design. With the option Piano Black
  Exterior for the MINI Cooper S Clubman and the MINI Cooper SD Clubman,
  the surrounds of the headlights, rear lights and radiator grille are
  finished in high-gloss black instead of chrome.</p>
<p>
  <strong>New light alloy wheels, sports suspension with vehicle lowering.</strong></p>
<p>Depending on the model variant, the new MINI Clubman is fitted as
  standards with light alloy wheels which are either 16-inch or 17-inch
  in size. As an option, light alloy wheels are available in the sizes
  18-inch and 19-inch. A new addition to the range are the 18-inch light
  alloy wheels in the design variants Multiray Spoke 2-tone and MINI
  Yours British Spoke 2-tone, along with 19-inch light alloy wheels in
  John Cooper Works Circuit Spoke 2-tone design.</p>
<p>Another entirely new offering in terms of optional equipment items is
  the sports suspension with a lowering of 10 millimetres. This option
  not only additionally optimises the agile driving response of the new
  MINI Clubman, it also lends even more intense emphasis to the car’s
  sporty appeal.</p>
<p>There is also the option of adaptive suspension. This offers the
  possibility of choosing between two characteristic curves for the
  damper set-up by means of the optional MINI Driving Modes. Depending
  on the driving situation, this enables a damper response to be
  activated which is either comfort-oriented or direct and sporty.</p>
<p>
  <strong>Expressing individual style: new exclusive MINI Yours options.</strong></p>
<p>The options provided by the MINI Yours programme offer a particularly
  exclusive way of customising the new MINI Clubman. They underscore the
  British origins and fascinating tradition of the brand as well as the
  driver’s personal style. High-quality materials, a precise finish and
  stylish design are the characteristics of the MINI Yours special
  equipment features for exterior and interior. In addition to the body
  finish in the variant MINI Yours Enigmatic Black metallic and the
  light alloy wheels in MINI Yours British Spoke 2-tone design, there
  are a number of attractive interior design options available for the
  new MINI Clubman.</p>
<p>The range includes a MINI Yours sports steering wheel and the seat
  upholstery variant MINI Yours Leather Lounge Carbon Black. The seats
  acquire an extravagant touch by means of a Union Jack motif on the
  headrests which is applied with precisely positioned perforations.
  Particularly exclusive accentuations are also provided by the MINI
  Yours Interior Styles option: this is available in the three versions
  Piano Black illuminated, Frozen Blue illuminated and Fibre Alloy
  illuminated. The features included here are illuminated door bezels
  along with the all-round cockpit bezel, the cockpit trim and the
  centre console trim elements, which are designed to harmonise in
  matching colours. All MINI Yours options are also available
  individually. The MINI Yours package likewise on offer additionally
  includes MINI Yours floor mats with black piping and
  aluminium-coloured seam pattern as well as a MINI Yours design label
  on the side windows.</p>
<p>Further customisation options for the interior are the seat
  upholstery variants which have been newly added to the programme of
  optional equipment items. The Leather Chester variant is now also
  available for the new MINI Clubman in the colours Malt Brown, Indigo
  Blue and Satellite Grey.</p>
<p>
  <strong>Drive: six engines, all-wheel drive system ALL4 as an option.</strong></p>
<p>The engine portfolio for the new MINI Clubman includes two 3-cylinder
  and one 4-cylinder petrol engines along with one 3-cylinder and two
  4-cylinder diesel engines, each of which features the latest
  generation of MINI TwinPower Turbo Technology. At a later stage the
  model programme will be extended to include the new
  MINI John Cooper Works Clubman. The top athlete of the series is
  fitted as standard with the all-wheel drive system ALL4.</p>
<p>As an alternative to the front-wheel power transmission that is
  typical of MINI, the ALL4 system is also optionally available for the
  two most powerful model variants – the MINI Cooper S and the MINI
  Cooper SD. With its fast and precise electronic control, this system
  ensures permanent distribution of power between the front and rear
  wheels as is appropriate to the situation.</p>
<p>Instead of the standard 6-speed manual transmission, a 7-speed
  Steptronic transmission with double clutch is optionally available for
  the MINI One Clubman, the MINI Cooper Clubman, the
  MINI Cooper S Clubman and the MINI One D Clubman. A 7-speed Steptronic
  sports transmission is also optionally available for the
  MINI Cooper S Clubman: this is characterised by especially fast shift
  times. The MINI Cooper D Clubman can be optionally fitted with an
  8-speed Steptronic transmission, which comes as a standard feature of
  the MINI Cooper S Clubman ALL4, the MINI Cooper SD Clubman and the
  MINI Cooper SD Clubman ALL4 and can be optionally replaced in each of
  these models with an 8-speed Steptronic sports transmission.</p>
