宝马设计总监卡里姆·哈比(Karim Habib)近日透露了2016款X1细节。他表示，这款重新设计的车型外观更突出运动风格，采用了类似X系列的车身比例。不过，他也表示，该车外观风格不会与现行版偏离太远，仍是一款非常成熟，有些圆润的车型。他还证实，该车与MINI Cooper和2系Active Tourer共享UKL平台。虽然他拒绝透露具体规格，但表示，今年夏季公众就可以看到新款X1的早期版本。这似乎暗示宝马将在法兰克福车展正式亮相之前透露新车信息。

 

BMW design boss says the 2016 X1 will have sportier styling

BMW's head of design has revealed some new details about the 2016 X1.

 

Speaking to Auto Express, Karim Habib said the redesigned model will have sportier styling and "more ‘X-like’ proportions." He went on to say the crossover's styling won't alienate current owners and the model will be "very mature" and a "bit more rounded.”

 

Habib also took the opportunity to confirm the model will ride on the UKL platform that underpins everything from the MINI Cooper to the BMW 2-Series Active Tourer. This isn't terribly surprising but at least it's finally official.

 

While Habib was coy on specifics, he confirmed we'll see an "early version" of the X1 this summer. That's a little vague but it seems to suggest the company will preview the crossover ahead of a Frankfurt debut.
