regarding that "worst SUVs of 2024" video, they should have added a a BMW X1 to that list. We had one as a rental for a week this summer (2024 model) and you couldn't pay me to drive one daily. Talk about crappy user experience. The instrumentation was all digital and I'm guessing they had some hack-shop in Bangalor do the design and programming. Words do not even begin to describe how distracting doing simple things like changing the AC temperature was. No knobs means you're staring at a screen that is not uniform in dialogs in any way. Driver preferences that get set do not get retained on the next session so simple things like "stopped-motion engine shutoff" need to be set each time you drive. My VW has a biutton to accomplish this.
Connecting a phone to the system? About a 4 minute process. Android Aiuto? You have to dig through about 3 screens to find it. Again, no 2 screens use the same layout.
I can't believe people pay what they pay to drive these cars.
