Nor is the price when you compare the X1 to the far more expensive X5, 5 series etc
You have to consider that it is built to a price to compete in a market segment. If it had the best seats, transmission etc, why would anyone buy the more expensive BMW models.
Yes, the Gearbox in the X1 is not as smooth or dynamic as the 125i F20, and the seats are a little small for larger bodies, but for me (average size) overall it is a really good package. I am sure that the all the comments find their way to the relevant teams within BMW, so time will tell. The good thing is most items like seats can be fixed to suit the individual.
