Mini Clubman

Mini makes the JCW Tuning Kit available for the Countryman and Clubman, and shows off an Ice Blue Cooper S at SEMA.

Bang for lots of bucks.

Mini is giving its "executive" car a hot twist, expanding its John Cooper Works range to the polarizing six-door.

This is the Mini Clubman All4 Scrambler, a concept from Mini of Italy built for the 2016 Valentino Park Motor Show. Inspiration for this tough-looking Mini is the BMW R Nine T Scrambler motorcycle.

Forget the Countryman, if you want a cool, soft-road Mini, you'll be begging the British brand to put the new Clubman All4 Scrambler Concept into production.

Demand for the Mini Clubman is outstripping supply. The company moved over 1,000 of the polarizing wagons in March, many of which were customized.

The John Cooper Works label is poised to spread to Mini's most grown-up car, but don't expect a jacked-up off-road version ever.

Mini has brought in some big stars to shine a spotlight on the new Clubman and "Defy Labels" in an ad to run this Sunday during the Super Bowl. Check it out here, along with a look behind the scenes of its making.

The Mini Clubman All4 finally adds all-wheel drive to the brand's practical hatchback.

Mini will allegedly offer the all-wheel-drive system from the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer on the Clubman as soon as next spring. The next-gen Countryman might also use the setup.

The introduction of the new Mini Clubman has cemented the brand as another premium proposition, rather than the quirky outpost of BMW's small cars.

The Mini Clubman may be more versatility and comfortable in its second-generation, but it still features the kind of endearing traits driving fans love.

Mini finally showed the all-new Clubman, the largest vehicle the company has ever built, to the motoring public at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show.

Mini USA's product planning manager Patrick McKenna walks us around the all-new, 2016 Mini Clubman, discussing changes both big and small.

Mini has officially taken the wraps off the all-new 2016 Clubman, longer and wider than any Mini before. It's also more luxurious, to serve as the brand's new flagship model.

Mini provides a sneak peek at the upcoming new Clubman wagon, expected to debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show with a more conventional door setup than its predecessor.

Mini gears up to hit the virtual racetrack with its Vision Gran Turismo concept, based on the upcoming new Clubman and upgraded with a hefty dose of attitude.

Mini is testing out its second-generation, barn-door-equipped Clubman on the roads of Germany, allowing us to catch an early look at the new model.

Is Mini constricting its staggering array of model variants or expanding it? That depends largely on which way you look at it. Because while some models may not make the cut as the second-generation family is gradually replaced with the third, others appear to be joining the fold. They just might not bear different model names.

Contrary to popular belief, it seems that Mini's growth plans do have a limit both in size and number of models. During the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, it unveiled the six-door Clubman concept (pictured above) that was 4.4-inches longer and about two-inches wider than even the current Countryman crossover.
