I'm booked in for a 48 hour test drive of the Mini Countryman ALL4 PHEV just to get a feel of the platform, as I imagine it will be fairly comparable to the hybrid X1 if/when it launches. I don't obviously know exactly what might be shared technology between the two, but I think I'm right in saying that the underlying chassis is the same?

You're right. The X1 and Mini Countryman chassis are the same.
