Could you tell this was a BMW interior without the roundel on the steering wheel? Of course. |

Horrors: a sideways powertrain, in a BMW. Brand loyalists are aghast. |

The cover lets you know this isn't the identical engine in the latest JCW Minis. |

Plus a large storage compartment beneath the floor. |

Class-leading cargo space with the rear seat down. |
|

Class-leading cargo space with the rear seat up. Ten more cubes than the old X1. |
|

Plenty of room for heads and feet in back seat. Slides, reclines, returns to fully upright position. |
|

Good support from seat back. Cushion on the small side, and looks odd. Get the sport seats. |

Another compact crossover with BMW cues--from Hyundai. |

The X1's display perches atop a slender instrument panel, where it's safest and easiest to view. |

The face is clearly that of a BMW. |

The new Clubman's interior is the best designed, best finished yet in a Mini. Very nice. |

If you've been inside one recent Audi, you've been inside all of them. |

Light beige doesn't do the X1's interior any favors. Arfully U-shaped center console trim. |
|

BMW cues abound. Plenty of glass for outward visibility. |

The new Clubman is a foot longer than the old one. Same wheelbase as the X1, but 7 inches lower. |

The Audi Q3 looks much like a Q5 with the proportions of a cartoon car. |
|

The proportions of the 2013-2015 BMW X1 were those of a rear-drive hatchback with a slight lift. |

The transverse powertrain forces some additional front overhang, but not much. Taller. |

The new BMW X1 a thoroughly conventional compact crossover with BMW cues. What more is there to say? |
