What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2018 Mini Clubman

2018 Mini Clubman Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2017 4dr Wagon turbocharged 189hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual AWD
The sport seats in the basic black leatherette are nicely bolstered though not overly enveloping like seats in my FR-S. This means it hits a nice middle ground of comfort but still keeping you from being thrown around in aggressive driving. The manually adjusted seats are easily positioned to a comfortable state after you figure out which of the 4 levers is doing what. The adjustible thigh support is especially nice and not something I often see in this segment. see full Mini Clubman review
