Mutt is right. Or useless monkey crap. Frankensteins. Hussein Bolt running in high heels.

BMW really knows how to make a chasis multifunctional. every design has a sedan , suv, or coupe and suv in the x6 case.

DASHOCKER told me that the X1 will replace the X3 in terms of size and the X3 will grow slightly larger and the X5 slightly larger as well. So no it won't be an X6 mini, however I heard they're going to create an X4.

Boy does that X1 clips the apex or what? This vehicle is actually slightly smaller than the current X3 by 4 inches in the length dept. & sits slightly lower.. Here is the Concept X1 below from the Paris Auto Show.
