It’s been nearly two years since Mini unveiled the new-generation 2014 Mini Cooper, which brought many design and drivetrain changes to Britain’s iconic nameplate. Having already introduced a four-door version of the hatch and a revamped 2015 Mini Countryman, Mini has now launched an updated version of the Clubman.
As expected, the new wagon borrows heavily from the hatch as far as styling goes, but with major changes at the rear, the area that makes the Clubman a Clubman. Also, the new-generation car is significantly larger than its predecessor, confirming yet again that Mini has repositioned the Cooper in a niche of its own.
Surprisingly enough, the brand selected the Clubman as the first Mini to use an eight-speed automatic transmission borrowed from BMWs using the same UKL platform. However, it’s not yet available on all trim levels of the Clubman and it remains to be seen in which versions of the Cooper it will become available in the future.
The updated wagon will go on sale later this year for the 2016 model year.
Updated 09/25/2015: Mini announced prices for the all-new Clubman which will go on sale in January 2016. Prices will start from $24,100 for the Cooper model and from $27,650 for the Cooper S version.
