A decade ago BMW fans had a choice between a 3-series, 5-series, 7-series and a Z3 coupe. That all changed in 1999, when the X5 was unleashed on the world. Now every 5th BMW sold is an X car. That’s a lot of X3’s, X5’s and X6’s. We predict that percentage is going to grow even more now that we’ve driven the brand new BMW X1.

This vehicle looks pretty
This vehicle looks pretty good in person.. just sayin. Also, the performance should be really quite good with the N55.

thumbs up for that car, seen
thumbs up for that car, seen this formula for x1 they derived it from this Agility + elegant = joy. well i think that car has its own ccertified mechanic but i think i much prefer to go back to the auto repair shops that gives me satisfaction in terms of their services.

Most Stylish Car
This is most stylish and sportying car by the BMW, interior space is comfortable for five persons and has auto start stop technology which improves fuel consumption.

Never had the chance to drive
Never had the chance to drive a X series before but I am definitely a fan. BMW are like a different class badges for people who drive them and I am especially referring the X series cars. I intend to become one of those people, I even did some research on BMW parts geek and learned that some parts are not that inaccessible as I thought they were.
x1-ct
Went to the launch last night and was very favourably impressed relative to the mixed reviews I'd read. The interior is a little utilitarian - but then most BMWs have been for the last 5-10 years - it still had a better all round feel than the CR-V, Koleos, Qashqai, Tuscon/i35 and other competitors I've looked at. Interior space seems remarkably good relative to the exterior dimensions. Looks particularly good in white.
X Misses the spot
The x1 is clear proof that the right badge on a car, will ensure success even if that vehicle is mediocre,The x1 is a prime example. styled by an machete wielding drunk, it looks oddly proportioned the front end in particular, with its large protruding grilled and bumper. like a girl with an overlarge jaw, some find that attractive.... overseas reports have been hugely critical of the vehicle poor quality interior as well, in fact uk publication have said that it isnt even up to the class average, space utilisation is also below par for the class. sure it drives well ,thats no suprise, but Bmw has compromised in too many areas to make this vehicle a great purchase. too cut costs, they have even removed a significant amount of sound deadening, in fact Autocar magazine tested the xdrives20d, and commented that x1 the x1 is by far the noisiest out of all Bmws fitte dwith the 2,0 turbodiesel engine. you pays yor money. no suprise that the X1 has not won any comparison test its been featured in. but people are gullable, and will buy it anyway. those who know better will buy a proper quality product. no that doesnt include landdrover........
X1 Great
I like the masculine looks.
confused styling
your comment "odd stying" understates the issue, original X1 chunky and purposeful, Can't decide about this, has an identity crisis. For this type of cross-dresser there is much better available, take the badge off would you still buy it? No because you'd say it looks old-style Korean
X1 -superb
This seems to be one of my favourite BMWs. And this is high praise coming from a Mercedes man. The X1 looks superb and seemingly good consumption of fuel. Also its not too expensive for a BMW. I predict its going to be a huge success. I can't wait to get the petrol model.
x1
i think the x1 is a great car its got the looks,space and its just loveable.
