Will it be an ultimate driving machine or ultimate parking at the mall machine?
I took another look at the spy photos of the X2 and it's not the perspective. The car has a big body and a small greenhouse. Maybe it will look better proportioned when the camouflage is gone. Good to know about the planned electric assist and potential handling improvements.
