Spied! X1 Sports Activity Vehicle Dec. 11, 2007 ) BMW's new baby SAV, the X1. Click on images for larger views.
Recently spotted as a disguised prototype, the X1 will be a baby brother to the well-established X3 and X5. The X1 is based on BMW's 1 Series cars and is being developed alongside Mini's first Sports Activity Vehicle. The BMW and Mini SAVs are expected to share a platform, raised suspension and four-wheel drive — with the BMW being a bit bigger in size. Unlike the X3 and X5, the X1 has a less upright and more sloping rear, as depicted in these photos. Engines will likely carry over from the 1 Series, which means a range-topping 300-horse bi-turbo inline-six that will certainly distance the BMW X1 — figuratively and literally — from competition such as the Toyota RAV4.
