Is the BMW X1 considered an SUV?
1 Answers
BMW X1 is classified as a compact SUV. Configuration: The latest model of BMW X1 is front-wheel drive, and the front-wheel-drive version offers more interior space. The new BMW X1 is equipped with two engines: one is a 1.5-liter three-cylinder turbocharged engine, and the other is a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine delivers 140 horsepower and a maximum torque of 220 Nm. The maximum power output of this engine is achieved between 4,600 and 6,500 rpm, while the maximum torque is available from 1,480 to 4,200 rpm. This engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. Driving Experience: The BMW X1's seating position is designed low enough that you don't feel like you're sitting high up in an SUV. The hood lines that converge toward the grille provide a more expansive field of view compared to driving a sedan. The steering somewhat diminishes BMW's sharp handling feel, with the steering wheel offering light damping and a noticeable electronic feel. The front end's response to steering inputs is also less sensitive.
