Smart money goes to X1 xDrive28i
BMW is about to see wagon sales go as dry as the Okanagan in summer.
BMW might still build the traditional dad-wagon, but who is going to want a more expensive, similarly equipped 3 Series wagon when the hip new X1 now sits on the showroom shelf with a starting price of $38,500?
Arguably, the 2012 BMW X1 xDrive28i even looks better than the aging 328i wagon. The X1 has an aggressive snout, a nice long hood, a rump that looks like the larger X3, yet the X1 is easier to climb in and out of. Even... [Read More]

2012 BMW X1 xDrive28i Review
Since luxury brands are popular right now, is it safe to assume that any vehicle BMW slaps a propeller badge on will sell like hotcakes? No, it isn’t. It all depends on how far you’re willing to push the envelope in creating vehicle categories no one really asked for. Case in point: People are probably still scratching their heads trying to figure out what a 5 Series Gran Turismo is.
If a vehicle is the right size and priced smartly, customers will flock from every direction. For... [Read More]

BMW X1 US Launch Delayed Until After 2013 Facelift
While its off-roading credentials might not be on par with a Land Rover Defender, having the X1 in their range has been the equivalent to a license to print money for BMW. While the model has been on European roads for some time now, the move across the pond has only been partially made. The compact crossover is already available in many parts of Asia and even Canada, but it hasn’t made its presence felt in US showrooms.
First off all, the... [Read More]

BMW: “X1 is indefinitely postponed for US market”
At a recent BMW event, we learned that for now, the BMW X1 has been indefinitely postponed in the United States. In the following days, we learned through unofficial channels that the entry-level Sports Activity Vehicle remains on the U.S. roadmap and a tentative launch date will be in late 2012.
BMWBLOG reported in early January that BMW’s entry-level SAV, the X1, will miss its original launch target in early 2011 and be postponed until late 2011. The delay was related to... [Read More]

Luxury Car Makers Think Small
Luxury car makers are gearing up to offer a wave of small models that will test whether affluent U.S. car buyers are ready to concede that bigger isn't always better.
From the tailfin-ornamented Cadillacs of the 1950s to the super-sized luxury sport utility vehicles of the last two decades, the U.S. luxury vehicle market has operated on a bigger is better aesthetic. Larger cars and SUVs typically command higher prices, and the top-of-the-line car for most prestige brands is still the biggest one.
