@PRNTestDrive Жыл бұрын
Not quite, unfortunately. The X1 will ride a bit harsher as the suspension isn’t quite as soft as it is on the larger X3, also there’s a bit more road noise due to the price point.

If reminds you the 2 series is normal because share the same platoform and interiors, and this is the platform even for the next generation 1 series, a mainstream fwd trasversal engine, at least the 1st gen x1 was longitudinal engine rdw. But the prices are crazy, in Europe is available even with 1.5 liter 3 cylinder engines (both diesel and gasoline) and for a resonable good equipement (like a mid trim i30/elantra gt) the msrp reach a crazy 39k € for a compact fwd, manual, 3 cylinder 116hp crossover, that insane... Come on BMW... But even x3 is expensive as fuck, for a 2.0 4 cyl with some good extra optionals the price fly to 60k € . Brands like bmw or Audi or Mercedes realy lose the mind with the prices... A generation ago you buy a 3.0 6 cylinder and now for similar price you get only a 2.0...
@PRNTestDrive6 жыл бұрын
We think it's insane, as nice as BMW's vehicles are, we could never consider something like this over so many other more affordable options. But people desperately want to get into the luxury market, so BMW is going to make a killing off the X1, since most buyers don't care it's transversely mounted and based on a FWD platform.

Perpetual Radio Networks yep, some people are crazy about brand... That's why they buy 1.0 liter 86hp vw golf or even worst a 200k km used Audi that fall apart but at least they can show "hey i'm driving an Audi (so i pretend to be rich) " seriously... There's a lot of guys in 20's with low income that buy an old and crapy Audi instead a more modern and realiable "mainstream brand" just for impress other people and pretend to be wealthy... This culture is realy a cancer, also because many time those car have illegaly modified odometer for show less km (scamer vendors) and many Audi driver are know for reckless driving :D
