New 2010 MINI Cooper S Clubman

A mini-minivan profile, with accompanying cargo room, joins power and efficiency in the 2010 Mini Cooper Clubman S.

Behind that cute front end is a 172-horsepower, turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. This little motor provides plenty of zip, and zaps its power through a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission to the front wheels. All together, the Mini Cooper’s powertrain delivers fuel economy ratings of 23-26 mpg city and 32-34 mpg highway. Power slots the Cooper Clubman S in between the Mazda3 wagon and Volvo C30, while fuel economy puts it in the lead.

Exterior design blends Mini Cooper adorable-ness with what looks like a bread van extension on the back. It is an intriguing look for its balance of utility and dynamics. Inside the Mini Cooper Clubman S, the benefit of that bread van styling plays out in more interior room. At 17 cubic feet, luggage space behind the rear seats is three times greater than the standard Mini, and far greater than the aforementioned competition. Front and rear headroom are also excellent. 

The Premium Package adds a dual pane panoramic sunroof and a Harman Kardon audio system. For well-engineered fun, the Sport Package includes an electronically-locking differential, 17-inch alloy wheels and optional stripes. Bluetooth connectivity and 50th anniversary Mini appearance upgrades are also available. For smiles and laughs, the Camden package includes the Mission Control System, which features a trio of voices that can offer advice and encouragement for your drive.

Fun is engineered into the structure and suspension of the Mini Cooper Clubman S, so driving is a blast at any speed. The suspension is tuned for smiles, while suspension and brake upgrades are available for even more driving pleasure.

Safety is high for the mighty Mini. Four-wheel antilock disc brakes with electronic brake-force distribution provide excellent stopping power, and Dynamic Stability Control keeps the 2010 Mini Cooper Clubman S poised in low-grip situations, so you that you don’t have to find out for yourself how safe it is.

When you want the power of a Mini Cooper S but can’t work or travel in that small of a space, step into the surprisingly roomy 2010 Mini Cooper Clubman S.
