This is a great effort by bmw I have to say. I loved the first gen and I like this one too. A nice evolution but not too keen on that line above the rear wheelarches. Too pronounced.
I think bmw knows competition is going to be fierce in this segment over the next years.
Design wise you can tell there is quality here. No longer the cheap plastic bits ala X3 and 3ser and 5 ser etc you see in the bumpers and Xline packs nice brushed steel instead but with that said I will have to wait a see how it drives - for me the biggest beef with current bmw´s apart from cheap interiors and degrading quality all arround. We know bmw does not come close too porsche in the last few years - Z4 vs cayman etc etc -.
Enjoy some stills I took from the vid.
I love these videos. Such branding bullshit. At one point the guy says "best in segment! Yeah mate. It would now wouldnt since its the only one in class unless bmw considers the pontiac aztec as in its class lol
