I am now waiting for X2M to come out in about three years time- alternatives are XC60 and upcoming E-Pace.
Cooper S Works has had very good reviews for handling in UK Car Magazines, and I expext M to be able to "take out" any remaining FWD bias by tuning AWD system.

XC60 vs X2?
First of all, the X2 is a lifestyle SUV, a smaller car and it's got a bit more attitude than the F48, but it's not a full blown family SUV like the new XC60 is, totaly different segment! I-Pace is a full EV suv, not an apple vs apple comparo imo.
About the X2 M35i Scott, that's with the B48 right, because this is the UKL, with 4 pot only - so it's taken steps towards the 35 moniker, i guess that means close to 300 hk?
Should be a good platform for performance imo, allthough i don't fancy the UKL platform at all.
