Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat may find themselves a little more cramped in the BMW X1 than the INFINITI QX50. The BMW X1 will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the INFINITI QX50.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the BMW X1 as you will with the INFINITI QX50, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the BMW X1 will have less of an impact on your bank account than the INFINITI QX50.

Dimensions
Since the BMW X1 is much slimmer than the INFINITI QX50, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. The BMW X1 is slightly shorter than the INFINITI QX50, which may make it easier to park.

Handling
The BMW X1 has a larger turning radius than the INFINITI QX50, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The BMW X1 has a little less horsepower than the INFINITI QX50.

Powertrain
With somewhat higher torque, the BMW X1 transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the INFINITI QX50.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the BMW X1 and the INFINITI QX50. The BMW X1 has less cargo space than the INFINITI QX50, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
