BMW X1 and Audi A4 Allroad side by side
I had no idea the X1 was that small, and that low to the ground. Interesting crop of new vehicles that look like SUV's, yet are no taller or higher than some sedans or wagons.

I've always liked the All-Road and its versatile capabilities. It is, in effect, a more expensive, more sophisticated, and more plush, though somewhat less-reliable Subaru Outback.
Though I could be wrong, I don't see much of a market for the X1 in the U.S. Most people in the market for smaller, car-based SUVs that size are going to buy the less-expensive Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV-4, Nissan Rogue, or Mitsubishi Outlander, rather than spend BMW kind of money. I do think, however, that it will probably outsell the X6.

The A4 allraod is basically a loaded A4 Advant with a few extra euro options. That baby X6 is one ugly car or SUV or what ever it is. I am not sure why these manufactuers are pushing these type of vehicles into the markey such as X6 X1 and ZDX. There is oboviously no market for them and yet they keep designing new ones. Are they hoping that we will get use to the ugly design or are they simply trying to set a design trend that no customer wants to follow.
BTW, is anybody sure that Chris Bangle is still not desiging cars for BMW?

The X1 looks really nice. They're already a daily sight in Stuttgart. A really nice-looking vehicle.
Seeing it in the photos doesn't do it justice. But in real life, up close, it looks fantastic.
