Bmw is renowned for its handling and a heavier steering is part of the characteristic to allow the driver to have better control and feel of the road. Bmws come with power steering but not as light as those Jap cars and it is deliberately engineered that way. Once you get used to it, its a pleasure to drive. There were once bmws made lighter steering, but received complaints from their owners and trackies that bmw should have retained its characteristic of a heavier steering instead of imitating the Japs whereby you can maneuver the car with a finger. In the end, bmw listened and reverted back to the heavier steering. The X1 steering is considered light. My previous E90 steering is heavier. I am truly enjoying my ride
