Doesn't make any sense.
Those with 35i don't expect less frequent trips to the gas station...and for the last 2yrs I have fit a 7ft Christmas Tree in my X1 with seats folded flat. Tough to do in a 9-3. Utility depends on what you will be using the vehicle for. I only occasionally need the utility. Yesterday, I loaded the X1 with several bags of cement mix and stone from Lowes for a patio repair. Good enough utility for me. Like I said in my prior post, if you don't like the X1 go buy or lease something else. As for me and other 35i owners, we'll keep driving our perfectly imperfect vehicles.
