Interestingly, BMW calls this model a Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV), emphasizing its distinct characteristics from a typical SUV or crossover. As mentioned, the car's relatively compact size makes it perfect for city driving. When it comes to handling characteristics, the BMW doesn't disappoint; it's confident, and the driver has a firm connection with the car and a clear feel of the road. As expected by this manufacturer, the car is slightly firmer than SUVs and compacts from other brands. Road imperfections are sufficiently damped. However, due to the sporty suspension and standard run-flat tires, which provide good grip on fast corners, you might be disappointed by how noticeably and loudly uneven road surfaces, potholes, and bumps are transmitted in the cabin. In particular, rear passengers will easily sense this. Fairly speaking, this car isn't exactly designed for those who prefer a relaxed drive.
