Start with the X1 if you want the most sense BMW packs into its smallest SUV, because this is the one quietly doing the heavy lifting for real families. It's roomy well beyond its footprint, easy to park, and now comes in petrol, diesel, plug-in hybrid and fully electric iX1 form, so almost anyone finds their fit. The cabin feels properly grown-up and it drives with more polish than a compact crossover has any right to. It won't set your pulse racing, but as a no-regrets first BMW it's very hard to fault.
