Comparison Review

Comfort
The BMW X1 offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the INFINITI QX55, with comparable head- and legroom. 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 QX55.

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 QX55, 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). Clearly, the BMW X1 is a better financial choice over the INFINITI QX55, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the BMW X1 is much slimmer than the INFINITI QX55, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. If you go with the BMW X1, you'll have a much easier time finding a large enough space to park than you will with the INFINITI QX55.

Handling
The BMW X1 has a larger turning radius than the INFINITI QX55, 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 QX55.

Powertrain
With somewhat higher torque, the BMW X1 transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the INFINITI QX55.

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 QX55. The BMW X1 has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the INFINITI QX55.
