The Classic MINI features hexagonal radiator grille, side scuttles, the black band, short overhangs and elliptical front and rear headlights. The new model is 260mm longer and around 170mm wider than the current generation Clubman. It measures 4223mm in length, 1844mm in width and 1450mm in height.
The MINI Clubman Concept is broad and athletic in the rear view. It sports characteristic split doors, door graphics and horizontally positioned rear lights. Selected chrome accents such as the "Clubman" inscription, the MINI emblem on the left-hand door and the door handles are specific details which emphasize the high-quality aspiration of the MINI Clubman Concept. Like its front, the aerodynamically optimized bumper finishes off the rear to the road. A functional detail in the rear apron is the Smart Opening function: a sensor underneath the bumper allows the tailgate to be opened using the feet if hands are not free.
Inside the cabin, the new MINI Clubman gets the nubuck leather in a light Sky Blue, patent leather in rich Berry Red and black soft nappa leather, which ensure an exclusive interior atmosphere. It features a leather-covered instrument panel. The upper section of the panel gets a blue lined ash grain surround and a white porcelain finsih.
