SUVs. Love or hate them, they're here to stay, and it seems the general public can't get enough of them. A tall stature, good boot space, room for 5 to fit comfortably, and it's off to the races. BMW has a proven track record of great SUVs, or SAVs as they're more locally coined. The German marque is no stranger to the crossover platform, and it has just released a new update to the X1. Bigger dimensions, better infotainment, and crucially a Cat A COE-friendly propulsion system. The list seems ticked off well, but is the BMW X1 all that cracked up to be? Macho looks

The new BMW X1 impresses with its cheerful demeanour and wallet-friendly price.


Okay, enough with the ’toenail’ jokes already… While understandable why phonetically it may LOOK that way, especially to those who aren’t familiar with Italian pronunciations, it is pronounced tow-NA-ley. Tonale. Now with more plug-in hybrid electric vehicle-ness (PHEV) on-board, Alfa Romeo calls it the Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4, with Q4 being representative of their all-wheel drive variant. For our purposes, ease of understanding and avoiding repetitious mouthfuls, we’re just gonna call it the Tonale PHEV instead.

An Xclusive peek into the new BMW X1

The new BMW X1 promises to be a great ride for all occasions and every terrain, city or nature!


And now today we have the all-new, 2015 X1 sDrive20i. It’s a different animal altogether too; first and foremost, it’s now a front-wheel drive — something BMW fans still find hard to swallow. Secondly, it has an exterior that mimics the bigger X5 closely; in other words, more mature and there’s that undeniable tinge of macho-ness as well.
