MINI Cooper Clubman D

Economy (mpg) Official/Test: 68.9/57.0

CO2 (g/km) Official/Test: 109/133

Price: £15,405

What Auto Express said: In our hands, the Clubman averaged 57mpg - the best on test. Yet its styling, driving enjoyment and performance are all first rate. BMW has got the balance and efficiency and pace spot-on - the Cooper D proves it's cool to be green.
