Pros Huge fuel economy gains Seriously improved towing capacity Thoughtful and easy third-row access
Cons Unsettled ride quality Interior quality fails to match the price tag Mushy brake pedal saps confidence
Pros Handsome new styling, powerful and relatively efficient hybrid powertrain, quiet cabin.
Cons Rear-seat headroom is limited, feels unwieldy to drive, third row of seats don't fold flat into the floor.
Pros Ample power from the V6 hybrid drivetrain Impressive list of standard and available tech features Comfortable ride for a truck-based SUV High max towing capacity
Cons Noticeable wind noise at highway speed Awkward third-row seating position
Pros More convincing than a petrol X1 New curved display is very appealing Bigger and more practical than older X1s
Cons Could there be a more affordable, less powerful version? It’s a heavy blighter (but then so are most electric SUVs) Lacks the pioneering feel of previous BMW i products
Pros Impressive performance Good rear seat space Decent range on a full charge
Cons Firmer ride than rivals No physical infotainment controls Currently only one very expensive version available
Pros Feels premium Easy to drive Lots of kit as standard
Cons No full one-pedal drive available Pricey for a family SUV Fiddly infotainment controls
