MINI wrote a new chapter in the brand’s history when it extended the product family by a vehicle concept that was both innovative and stand-alone: the MINI Clubman. This MINI take on a “shooting brake†was a sports car that combined the style of a coupé with a hatchback for greater functionality – and proved a winning formula from the start.
In 2015, MINI takes the Clubman’s success story further, transporting it – literally – into a new dimension. Arriving in the Middle East in 2016, the commanding, elegant and noticeably matured third generation has clearly grown both inside and out while carving out a new vehicle class for MINI. Even in the new premium-compact segment it is consciously designed as the “smallest large carâ€: true to the maxim of the classic Mini, it offers maximum interior space on a minimal footprint.
Just over 32 cm longer and around 12 cm wider than its predecessor, the new MINI Clubman provides plenty of space to meet the demands of youthful, urban mobility. Pared down to the essentials, the side view exhibits its qualities at first glance. Classic MINI design cues, such as wheels at the far corners of the car, short overhangs and the incipient wedge shape of the side, signal the dynamic driving experience before a wheel has even turned, while its familiar compact proportions hold the promise of that genuine go-kart feeling. At the same time the stretched roofline and four fully-fledged side-doors indicate a larger interior and enhanced functionality. Liberal surface areas convey supreme elegance, while taut lines elongate the side view and fine contouring adds classy highlights and extra dynamics.
Two round headlamps with LED daytime running light rings and a large hexagonal grille create the typical MINI face. These iconic design cues are mounted like jewels in high-quality chrome surroundings, lending an exclusive touch to the front end. Other style-defining details such as the side scuttles with indicators have likewise been redesigned. Horizontally aligned as before, the indicator unit no longer emerges from the side scuttle join but now stands alone.
Designed for the urban experience since 1959.
