This is a sad proof that you can put a BMW on every car.

I don't really like it, it does not resemble any real BMW at all. The interior is even worse IMO. Look at the gear lever and the cockpit. Even the seats do not look like bimmer seats.

For me this car belongs to the same category as all the sh%&* Active Tourers and new X1.

true story.. front and rear bumper covers and a little different headlamps is about all it would need.

Will never come to North America, and the average Chinese person is much smaller than the average american.
Your assumption of average Chinese is smaller than American is a tad absurd. Majority of the buyer are Chinese from
Large cities which is mainly of Northern China. Northern Chinese have an average height similar to Europeans. The young generation in general are quite tall. Some even towering Caucasians.

Why is Mercedes and BMW making subcompacts?

C class/3er is enough! Will the Germans PLEASE stop trying to get customers from the bottom of the totem pole!

So much fail in this car. The x1 is the same. Had it as a loaner car. The shifter was embarrassing to look at/use, definitely belongs in a 90s GM product. The motor was facing the wrong way. Luckily I had the xDrive. They actually now have a FWD sDrive version....

But my mom loved it. Guess she is the target demo.
