Last week, Forbes.com posted an article on the MINI Clubman. Nothing really new was presented in the article, but it is cool for Forbes to take notice. Here is an excerpt from the article (full version available at the link below):
The Clubman is aimed at consumers who find the current Mini Cooper too small. ìWeíre looking at the type of person who wants a Mini but also wants to surf, for example,î Cutler said. ìItís more adaptable to someone who does that ó or someone who needs space for a dog or a mountain bike.î
Cutler said that the Clubmanís larger interior and cargo capacity will cut down on the need to contort items in order to get them into the car, as may be necessary with the current Mini Cooper.
