BMW X1 xDrive35i: 0-60 In 5.3 Seconds

Although Canucks have been enjoying the BMW X1 xDrive28i for over a year now, the launch of the X1 in the United States will see both the four-cylinder model, and a 3.0L twin-turbo I6 version, dubbed the xDrive35i. And it's fast. The xDrive35i will dash to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds. The sDrive28i (RWD only) will do it in 6.2, while the xDrive28i takes additional tenth of a second. Fuel economy is 24 city/33 highway for the RWD model, 22/30 for the AWD version, and 18/27 for the xDrive35i. No manual will be offered, just BMW's 8-speed automatic transmission. Looks like BMW's baby crossover isn't so lame after all. from The Truth About Cars http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com
