Mini Clubman: official specs & pics




BMW officials have finally released details for the new Mini Clubman stretch, less than two years after it was first displayed as a concept car. A longer wheelbase, vertically-split tailgate and a single suicide-style rear-opening door on the non-driver’s side differentiate the new Clubman from the regular Mini hatch.

The engine range kicks off with the base 1.6L naturally-aspirated petrol four-cylinder mill, which develops 120hp and 160Nm of torque. This is followed by the new 1.6L common-rail diesel with 110hp and 240Nm of torque and the turbo 1.6L petrol engine in the range topping Clubman S, which produces 175hp and 240Nm of torque. All three engines will be available with a six-speed manual as standard or an optional six-speed auto.

Pricing should be announced closer to the car’s sale launch early next year, according to the guys at Edmunds, and the final production version should make a showing at September’s Frankfurt Auto Show.

Re: Mini Clubman: official specs & pics

Well then, here it is. Zilch surprise.

I stand by my last assertion. Fussy, over-complicated, hardly any more practical and totally pointless automobile.

I hope the engineers have stiffened the rear tailgate frame for better torsional rigidity... any body flex at the rear and those two barn doors are going rattle like grandma's false teeth...

Re: Mini Clubman: official specs & pics

this looks like a fancy hip delivery or catering car.
Even though I really like the Cooper, I wouldn't be caught dead in this
