The BMW X1 has undergone quite a significant overhaul since it first rolled off the production line nearly 15 years ago.
In fact, if you saw an original X1, you'd think it was just a glorified 1-Series with some off-road styling.
Compared with its bigger siblings, the X3 and X5, the X1 just lacked something – it didn't look like it belonged in the same line-up.
But, after bridging the gap with the second generation, the third generation has arrived.
The X1 is now bigger and bolder; first impressions are that it should be taken far more seriously as an SUV.
Although it’s the fossil-fuelled version we’re interested in here, part of the size increase over the outgoing model is to accommodate electric motors for the launch of its all-electric counterpart, the iX1, which goes on the market soon.
So, how does the new BMW X1 shape up?
