The Mini Clubman is the quirky wagon you didn't know you needed until you hit the open road.
Agile, responsive handling · Punchy JCW engine delights
Pricey with options · Styling can polarize
The 2026 Mini Clubman is a charismatic oddball in a world of cookie-cutter crossovers. Its agile handling and punchy JCW engine bring a smile the moment you dart through winding canyon roads. What surprised us was how much space it offers compared to the Mini Hardtop, making it a practical yet stylish choice for those who love driving. However, that style might not be for everyone, and the price can climb quickly with options. If you're someone who craves a unique blend of personality and practicality, and you're not afraid to stand out, the Clubman might just be your perfect match.
Our pick: JCW ($41,000)
vs. Volkswagen Golf R: The Golf R offers a more understated look and slightly better value, but the Mini Clubman wins with its unique charm and engaging drive.
