2016 Mini Clubman Photo Gallery

Same distended nose with laid back headlamps as other current generation Minis. Low photo angle.

A different Clubman I tested earlier, in a more attractive color.

Handsome but boring VW exterior styling.

The new Clubman shares and platform and wheelbase with the new BMW X1.

The proportions appear most stretched with the base wheels.

The Mini Hardtop has tighter proportions, and even it has a long nose compared to earlier Minis.

Probably the Clubman's most handsome angle. Notice cut lines for side-opening clamshell doors.

How the doors open--neat?

Clubman interior with no options. Best materials and build quality yet in a Mini.

Much fancier interior of a loaded-up Clubman.

Cleanly styled and solid but boring VW interior.

Cleaner instrument panel styling than past Minis, though distinctive touches remain.

Ergonomics much improved over earlier Minis. The silly huge central speedo is no more.

Standard driver seat has prominent non-adjustable lumbar.

Much fancier, more supportive seating is available.

Adults will fit without squeezing.

Much more cargo space than in the Mini Hardtop. In line with compact hatchbacks.

With the seats folded, the Clubman can carry nearly as much cargo as a Golf hatchback.

Unlike the rest of the car, not much design under the hood.

Three cylinders turbocharged to yield 134 horsepower. Torquey in typical driving, not much up top.
