BMW is reportedly working on an M version of their new X1 compact SUV. Taking the engine off the 135i, this answer to Audi's Q5 could potentially have around 350hp similar to that of the 1 series M. With the addition of an X5M an X6M, and potentially an X1M; is the BMW M division losing its focus?
To keep it short; I think so. BMW's M brand has always been for the driving purists, creating road going sports cars with the perfect blend of everyday driver cars and track day performance. M cars are not just street cars for the track, nor race cars for the road, they are a unique brand for those who love driving.
