The urbo 4 in our 2010 Clubman S is smooth and a blast to crank thru the gears so I have to assume the 2.0 will be even better. When gas is $5-6 bucks in a year or two good luck with your inline 6's. Great engine at high revs, smooth as hell, but without a stick you can't maximize that engine.

The I4 is NOT a hybrid engine. Still we will pay for gas. The Canadian BMW site states that the X1 with the I4 compared with the X3 I6, there is only a difference of 1 liter of gas per 100km. Yes you will save but less than a cup of coffee. Not really a huge savings. Just me...looking for the silver lining
