Mini styling with AWD

The 2017 Mini Cooper Clubman is the perfect blend of Mini Cooper’s unique styling and outstanding handling, paired with practical touches. Although the 2016 Mini Cooper Clubman is still a subcompact car, its back seat and cargo space are both functional, whether you’re looking for a family car or need a bit of extra space for instruments or sports gear. New for the 2016 model year, the 2017 Mini Cooper Clubman is available with all-wheel drive, a great perk if you live in a cold, snowy area.

1. Cold weather ready 

The 2017 Mini Cooper Clubman is ready to handle winter driving. All-wheel drive is now standard on the John Cooper Works trim. Pair that with the available Cold Weather package, which adds heated front seats, and you’ll be cozy on all your winter drives.  

2. Flexible cargo space 

Whether you need to fit your children in the backseat, or want space for your golf clubs, the 2017 Mini Cooper Clubman is up for the task. That car has 34 inches of legroom in the rear seat, and 17.5 cu-ft of cargo space. The unique vertical van-style doors make the cargo area easy to load.  

3. Distinct styling 

If you’re known to wear a fedora or integrate the Union Jack into your outfits, you’ll love the 2017 Mini Cooper Clubman’s distinctive styling. All 2017 models come with the option for roof and mirror colors that are distinct from the body color. The cockpit-like interior styling is as unmistakable as the exterior design.  

4. Sports trim 

To channel your inner rally driver, choose a 2017 Mini Cooper Clubman in the available John Cooper Works trim. This trim comes standard with a 189-hp 2L turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Standard sports touches including a rear spoiler, an upgraded suspension, and all-wheel drive make the John Cooper Works trim a stand-out on the track.  

5. Lots of features 

The 2017 Mini Cooper Clubman comes in three trims, with lots of optional packages and stand-alone features, so you can find a Clubman that is just right for you. If you’re always low on charge, choose a Clubman with the available wireless charging pad. For long commutes, choose available adaptive cruise control. Available leather seats, extended thigh supports, and a panoramic sunroof keep you comfortable behind the wheel.
