Paul Tan on the Automotive Industry
In the spirit of “self-published” spyshots by car manufacturers that have been surfacing lately, BMW has released a spy video of the BMW X1 donning a ridiculous camo pattern on its body having some fun in the snowy terrain of the arctic circle. This particular unit would likely have the xDrive system for sure, but word is the X1 might also come in sDrive rear-wheel drive variants. Watch the “spy video” after the jump.

BMW designs are either hate it or love it….the X1 looks like a horrible. I think BMW can cut cost and cut this ugly line-up from their production.
*bleh*

Well, if you say the X1 is horrible, then i bet the other high end SUVs is even more ugly. This X1 is elegant man, look at the design, it looks so aggrassive and sylish! It is almost like a X6 but just smaller. When this car comes out with a reasonable price, our road will SUV will be dominated by this car just like X3 and X6 did! Back to my former point, this car looks like X6 but just smaller, so it’s ugly, then other high end SUVs must be more ugly, why? Cause i had saw alot of X3 and X6 out there, and rarely saw any High End SUVs yet, especially audi Q7 and porche Cayeene!!
i love this car, an suv alfa romeo would be proud of

No offence but i we shall see thru the sales figure. Not in m’sia but in europe and then we will conclude and see if what u say is believable…Agreesive and stylish? I’ll go for a rather go for a Q5 anytime or even a Nissan Qashai 2+2.
to your point of seeing ore X6? I so far only saw 3. One ont he NKVE (which happens to be quite regular user), 1 in 1u…oh and one as an AMEX advert for MBB =) Or are you refering to X5?
I believe if ur comparing the number of X6 on the road to Q7 and Porsche, I see more cayenne than q7 and x6.

aiyo..another piece of nonsense from bmw…..what exactly is the point of this thing? wouldnt we be better off with the new murano??
look antique.. Nice la.
This car will make you smile and your neighbor mad, especially when you park the car with the front facing them. And their mURANo will run away.
Bangle shagged a Camel?
or did the Camel shagged Bangle?
either way…it must have been good for Bangle..
The cammo is so much, Not much details if any you can see in there. It may be an X3 for all you know

haha! and they can roast this one to…looks fat enuff dontcha think?
Yeah yeah, pig huh? Well, in my opinion, this car has its own taste. You wont be supprise a few years later, other car company start to copy this “PIG” design. Just like the 5 series when u newly came out. Everyone critic that it was ugly, and now? Every car company start to copy its design. What the heck? So i believe this car will be successfull as other bmw models. Cheers.
