BMW X1
As a subcompact luxury SUV, the BMW X1 is pitted against the Audi Q3 and Mercedes-Benz GLA. Along with the 2 Series Gran Coupe, it represents the gateway to the German automaker’s lineup. Motivation comes in the form of a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that produces 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission handles power delivery with the help of the xDrive all-wheel drive system.
