2021 MINI Clubman

The MINI Clubman comes in main two trim levels: Cooper S and John Cooper Works (JCW). The Cooper S starts at $30,750 including destination, and the JCW shows up at $40,350.

Both trims are available in the same three equipment groups: Classic, Signature, and Iconic.

The Cooper S carries a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, while the JCW gets a high-output version of the same.

The Cooper S Classic starts out with a six-speed manual transmission, and a seven-speed automatic is available for $1,500. The automatic is standard on the Cooper S Signature and Iconic, but the manual remains a no-cost option. All-wheel drive, designated as Cooper S ALL4, mandates the automatic gearbox and costs $3,000 on the Classic and $2,000 on the Signature and Iconic.

Along with the more powerful engine, the JCW comes standard with all-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic.

The Clubman is a compact hatchback with sufficient room for five. The cargo area hold 17.5 cubic feet, or 47.9 with the rear seat folded. Instead of a liftgate, this model features rear swing-out doors.

Safety technology on the Classic is limited to rear parking sensors and a rearview camera. Upgrading to the Signature brings forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking.

The Driver Assistance Package ($1,250) for the Signature furnishes adaptive cruise control, front parking sensors, and a parking spot locator. The package remains optional on the Ionic, although the price drops to $850.

Lane keeping assist and blind-spot monitoring aren't available on any Clubman.

The Classic's infotainment system is rather basic, consisting of a 6.5-inch display-only screen, six audio speakers, and one USB port. Satellite radio can be added for $300.

The Signature does a lot better in this department, adding an actual touchscreen, navigation, Apple CarPlay compatibility, a second USB port, and a 12-speaker Harman Kardon audio system. Satellite is available separately or as part of the $2,000 Premium Package, while a head-up display is part of the aforementioned Driver Assistance Package.

The Iconic tops off the Clubman with an 8.8-inch touchscreen and standard satellite radio.

Android Auto isn't offered on any version.

The Cooper S comes equipped with leatherette upholstery, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, fog lights, and 17-inch alloy wheels in Classic form.

For an extra $4,600, the Signature provides heated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, full LED exterior lighting, selectable driving modes, proximity key access, and hands-free power-open cargo doors.

The $2,000 Premium Package on the Signature includes power front seats with driver memory, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, power-folding and auto-dimming side mirrors, and a split-folding rear seat.

The Iconic comes with everything in the Premium Package, plus leather upholstery, a universal home remote, and 18-inch wheels. The Cooper S Iconic lists for $9,000 more than the Classic.

The JCW packs the 301-hp engine, all-wheel drive, a track-tuned suspension, and standard 18-inch black wheels. Other standard features include selectable driving modes, cloth sport seats, and LED headlights and taillights.

The Signature costs $3,400 on the JCW and includes the Premium Package as standard. Going for the fully loaded Iconic adds $7,000 to the price.
