Interesting thing is the M-sport with 19" summer tires that Car&Driver has do 70-0 in 151ft compare to 189ft they did (and complain) with Sportline months ago. That show how bad the low rolling tires perform.

Yes, a lot of this is the tires. But braking distance will also be affected by temperature.
And the M-sport has a small edge with the harder suspension.

Germans have drove the PFL X1 100.000 KMs and took it completely apart.

Interesting video! The X1 ranked 15 out of 88 cars in this super strict wear/durability test. Not bad.
