Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
More convincing than a petrol X1
New curved display is very appealing
Bigger and more practical than older X1s

Could there be a more affordable, less powerful version?
It’s a heavy blighter (but then so are most electric SUVs)
Lacks the pioneering feel of previous BMW i products
