Though the excitement over the 2009 Detroit Auto Show is just starting to settle - its public days still remain in the future - already carmakers are gearing up for and releasing the cars that will be at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show. BMW's Mini brand is among the first, revealing the new Mini One Clubman, positioned as the entry-level trim for the brand.

A four-cylinder engine generating 95hp (70kW) powers the One Clubman as standard, but a special 73hp (55kW) model is also available for the Mini One (non-Clubman), offering lower fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and pricing than ever before.

Rated at 43.6mpg (5.4L/100km), the new Mini One Clubman only emits 130g/km CO2 as well. The same engines are available in the Mini One, and improve fuel consumption to 44.3mpg (5.3L/100km) and emissions to 128g/km in the smaller package.

Starting price for the new Mini One Clubman is €18,200, while the Mini One starts at €15,200. Both cars will be launched for retail sale shortly after their Geneva debuts in March.

  3. Since this is not an America bound model, many people will pay for it and the interior content will be higher then a base car in America.

  4. Europeans pay more for all of their vehicles. That is why they get desirably small cars and we get crappy econboxes.

    For Comparison:

    Mini One Clubman --- 18,200
    Mini Clubman --------- 19,900
    Mini Clubman S ------- 23,900
    (Prices from German Mini Site in Euro)

  5. Wow I totally agree with LLN on the rear end and the club “suicide” door. I think they should of put them on both sides. The rear door should be whats on the two door mini. but if for some reason they had to put those split doors on they should not have painted the c-pillers silver keep them black like the two door. the part around the rear lights are stupid if you must have them paint them the same color of the car same goes with the bumber
