The classic BMW kidney grilles and the bulging hood hint at the performance character of this car. The curvature of the roof makes the xi look fairly mundane, but the way it's set back, allowing for a longer nose, makes its sporting nature stand out. Our test car came with parking assist, useful on a car with a high trunk lip. Trunk space isn't large, but the cold weather package includes a pass-through to the front, allowing for skis to be carried inside the car. Quality materials make up the interior of the xi, giving it a luxury feel.

Four wheel-drive sedans are divisive devices. Their buyers tend to split into two camps: snow scared drivers who would no more cane their car in the dry than leave home without their wallet and pistonheads intent on boldly hooning where no front or rear wheel-driver would hoon before. Of course, pistonheads like the extra snow-and-go seating, but fear the four wheel-drive gubbins will add extra weight and sap steering feel. So, does the BMW xi coupe cater to both groups, dodging the dynamic bullet even as it pampers the paranoid? Despite all the kvetching about Chris Bangle's flame broiled designs, the 3 coupe marks a welcome return to blandsome Bimmers. That said, the xi's front is busier than Dick Cheney's cardiologist, with grilles below air dams beneath the bumpers. At the back, the 3's ghetto fabulous booty is suitably capacious for lifestyle load luggers. It easily swallows a set of weekend bags for empty nesters visiting their progeny at parents' weekend.

I had zero hopes for a very dynamic feeling car, because despite my personal love of station wagons, the whale-ish nature of the vehicle sucked me into assuming nothing about it. For this cornering test, we jammed the accelerator as we entered a tight turn. The well-balanced gauges show vehicle and engine speed, along with fuel level and, a classic BMW feature, immediate fuel consumption. Most cars we get at CNET tend to be easy to steer at low speeds, in our parking garage, and harder to steer at higher speeds. Its Bluetooth cell phone integration is extremely user-friendly, and even its base level stereo sounds very good. Now for the more serious problems which required attention. Trunk space isn't large, but the cold weather package includes a pass-through to the front, allowing for skis to be carried inside the car. The cabin of the xi features classic European luxury. As long as you can get the accelerator working in a satisfactory manner. Phone integration is excellent, with the phone's address book available at the touch of a button. We used the steering wheel to tell the car where we wanted to go, and it did exactly what we wanted it to. This 3-liter inline six-cylinder engine produces horsepower.

Metal accents between the spokes mirrored the metal inset on the automatic transmission shifter. My favorite feature of the car. Because of that, these issues will likely remain issues. Turn the right-hand knob and you can quickly scroll through them. The transmission can be set to normal drive mode, sport mode, or a manual gear selection mode. Even some systems with LCDs we've seen haven't done a very good job of presenting track and folder navigation. The EPA rates the xi at 20mpg in the city and 27mpg on the highway. In performance driving, such as tight cornering, all the power is transferred to the rear wheels. See full bio. Notable about this experience was that the car never felt particularly out of control. BMW's new active cruise control, which can lightly apply the brakes to maintain your desired speed, is also standard. Our car also came with nice, bright xenon headlights, which include adaptive steering on the BMW, meaning the headlights point into a curve when the steering wheel is turned appropriately. Our car also came with an optional six-speed automatic transmission. Even at their base level, the cabin gadgets don't disappoint. Its 3-liter inline six-cylinder engine makes a great sound and puts out very steady power, up to horsepower at 6,RPM.
