I could keep going for days, but when you drive a 2015 BMW and get smoked by a Rav 4, I think "pedestrian" is the very definition of your engine.

I just checked my local Toyota dealership. They have 33 Rav4's in stock. All with the 4 cylinder. Also 33 Camry's 4 of which are 6 cylinder. The X1 is faster than Audi Q5 or Audi A4 or Mercedes GLK 350.

You will note that your car does the quarter mile in 14.1 seconds according to car and driver. So your beloved x1 35 would get smoked by the RAV4 6 cylinder as well. Maybe you should trade in your pedestrian X1 and get a RAV 4 to mod.
