BMW X1
Last Updated:
Finally some official pictures. And we see the interior too.
It’s actually not that bad. And much, much better than the horrific looking X3. (But what isn’t…)
At least in Europe the engine offered include a 2.3 Liter Diesel and a 2.8 Liter.
More later….
It looks less terrible than I expected it to look. But my cynical opinion of BMW is a result of eight years of clunky designs. It still is an ugly thing compared to the Audi Q-whatever or the Volvo XC-whatever. Real estate agents will love them.
Id take an X3 over this anyday, this thing is a glorified, gussied up 1 series that they can charge 30k for, with an odd front end and a rear end that could be from any carmaker… YAWN !
Awesome!
This gets an A!
…with an incredibly boring dashboard…
leave it to the krauts to get us this kinf of overpriv ced crap just when you can get a chevy or a cadillac for cheaper and t you wont look lik e a a sh ole driving one cadilac is cla ss
Finally… Honda Designers have waited long enough for this, since they will base the next generation CR-V after their idol BMW.
Same awful steering wheel design.
I love the crisp, uncluttered interior, but this thing looks bloated and puffy on the outside. No thanks.
Hideous. This should be called the BMW Xcrement1.
Not to be confused with the BMW Xcrement3, Xcrement5, and Xcrement6.
Give me a CR-V over this any day. I'll pocket the 15K saved and put it towards something else.

What in the hell are you talking about?
Vince, other than it looking less tall, is this really that big a size difference from the X3 ?
NOT THAT BAD?!?!!?!? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!!?!??! the interior might not be that bad…. but seriously look at this thing! it looks liek a terrible chinese knock off!.. its fat, bloated and waaaaaaay to whale-like curvy…. it also looks bigger than the x3
Douchebag Jones forgot to mention the great SUV's that Pontiac makes these days that would beat a BMW hands down…

Compared to the X1 and the X3, GM offers SUVs that I'd rather own.
Interior actually looks more expensive than that of the X5.
This is lame. So much for BMW as a viable independent.
I'd much rather have a Subaru Forester. All Wheel Drive. Under $26K and pocket the $15K difference and buy my son his first car.
I'd take a CR-V or Forester over this as well. Invest the money you save and be better off down the road.
What a stupid vehicle.
