2018 Mini Clubman towing capacity

The 2018 Mini Clubman is published in 5 configurations, with tow ratings ranging from 1,430 to 1,650 lb depending on cab, bed, drivetrain, and hitch class. The peak figure (1,650 lb) sits in very light towing only.

The table below lists every trim of the 2018 Mini Clubman with the engine, drivetrain, axle ratio, horsepower, torque, GVWR, curb weight, and payload that go with that trim's headline tow rating. Manufacturers often publish more than one tow figure per truck — a conventional bumper-hitch rating, a weight-distributing rating, and a gooseneck or fifth-wheel rating — so the highest number here is the maximum across all hitch classes the source carries for the trim.

Per-trim breakdown

How to interpret the headline tow figure

Tow ratings at this level are normally achievable with a conventional Class II or Class III receiver hitch. Always verify your vehicle has the manufacturer's tow package installed if you intend to tow at the upper end of the rating, and inspect the door-jamb sticker for the actual maximum permitted on your specific configuration.

How this year compares to 2014

The 2014 Mini Clubman carried a maximum tow rating of 1,650 lb. The 2018 model carries the same headline figure — manufacturers usually leave the rating alone year-over-year unless there's a powertrain or hitch change. See the 2014 Mini Clubman page for the full per-trim breakdown of the prior year.
