Verdict
The MINI Clubman costs RM298,888, RM9,888 more than the Toyota Harrier at RM289,000. It is the quicker, more compact choice: 192 hp, 280 Nm and 7.2 seconds to 100 km/h versus the Harrier’s 175 hp petrol engine and 118 hp electric motor. But the Toyota is 487 mm longer, has a 396-litre boot and brings adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking and a 360-degree camera. For Malaysian running costs, the MINI’s RM379 annual road tax undercuts the Harrier’s RM830, while its rated consumption is 5.6 L/100 km.
Pick the MINI Clubman if you want 192 hp, 280 Nm, a 7.2-second 0-100 km/h time and substantially lower RM379 annual road tax in a 4,253-mm wagon.
Pick the Toyota Harrier if you need the larger 4,740-mm SUV body, 396-litre boot, hybrid assistance and the stronger suite of driver-assistance equipment.
