Mini targets fleet buyers with the Clubman City

In the 1980s, the City trim grade denoted a grim entry-level Austin with a distinct lack of equipment. For people over a certain age, that’s not a positive connotation for the latest Clubman variant (but Mini has never been shy about resurrecting names from the brand’s past).

Actually, the Clubman City – which is aimed primarily at fleet and business customers – has a fairly generous specification. Satellite navigation, a DAB radio, Bluetooth connectivity, cruise control and rear parking sensors are all standard, for instance.

While 16” ‘Revolite Spoke’ wheels are the default selection, purchasers can upgrade to either 17” ‘Silver Net Spoke’ or 17” ‘Silver Vent Spoke’ rims for free. Run-flat tyres are on the options list.

Three engine and transmission combinations are being offered. All are compliant with the WLTP efficiency testing regime, plus they come with a stop-start device and brake energy regeneration to reduce fuel consumption.
