There’s no reason to the awkward placement of the hood line on the X2. That and the upside down kidneys ruin what could have been a great car. |
I remember reading somewhere that the hood cutline was that way for pedestrian safety. If they hit someone the facia will bend and be much for forgiving than the sheet metal hood, as it's very horizontal so it cut into you more easily
.
Again just what I remember reading Not that I agree as I've always hated the 3 and 4 series cut line as well.
