MiniClubman是在2015年法兰克福车展首次亮相的，该车采用六个车门，内部可容纳五名乘客。这款车最近准备进行改款，谍照记者在德国慕尼黑拍到了改款车照片。新车外观变化不大，只是车头和车尾部分进行了伪装。谍照记者表示，前大灯和尾灯组造型将进行改款，这也是几乎所有设计师时下都在研究的问题。据猜测，新车前后保险杠将进行改款，但从这些照片看，似乎一切都没有变。新车内装将采用更高质量材质和真皮内饰，因此改进主要集中在信息娱乐系统，可能采用宝马提供的最新科技。基于UKL2平台的MiniClubman改款车采用前轮驱动，同时也有全驱版本。入门级车型动力总成设计没有改变，因此只能预计新车引擎有一些提升。包括CooperS搭载的2.0升四缸涡轮增压引擎和1.5升直列三缸涡轮增压引擎以及欧版车搭载的柴油引擎将获得升级以满足新的WLTP标准。

 

Mini Clubman Facelift Makes Spy Photo Debut

Revealed for the first time in 2015 at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the Clubman is Mini’s entry into the premium compact hatchback segment. It has six, not five, doors, and can accommodate up to five passengers in its retro-styled cabin. This model is now being prepared for a facelift and these are the first spy photos of it, taken in Munich, Germany.

 

Not much is happening with the Clubman's design, as it is easy to see only the front end and parts of the rear are covered with thin camouflage foil. Our spies tell us the headlights and taillights should receive revised graphics, and that’s pretty much everything the designers are currently working on. We guess some modifications could also be made to the bumpers, but everything seems unchanged in these first spy photos.

 

The interior of Clubman is already featuring some high-quality materials and real leather upholstery, so the tweaks here could be focused on the infotainment system, which could receive the latest tech from parent company BMW. Based on the UKL2 platform, the vehicle is motivated by its front wheels and there’s also and AWD version. The basic powertrain design of the car won’t be changed with the facelift, so we can only expect some improvements in the engine department. For example, the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder of the Cooper S model and the 1.5-liter inline-three turbo unit, as well as the diesel offerings for Europe, should all be tweaked to meet the new WLTP standards.
