Certainly not a niche product for BMW, X1's outsold X3's in May each with over 14,000 units worldwide. I think the X1 will pass the X3 in the US because of the price point being the entry level to get into a BMW. I can certainly see how it could get the EPA numbers especially on the hwy. The several hwy trips we have taken have all been about 30 mpg avg but at substantially higher speeds and not steady speeds or flat. We're only getting about 21.5 city but it depends on what you call true city driving. Our city driving would be mostly 1-3 miles of stop lights and stop signs going with moderate traffic.
