(Height remains about the same at 0.1 inches lower.) That hasn&#8217;t stopped the engineers from trimming as much as 110 pounds off the curb weight, though, with a lower center of gravity and perfect 50\/50 weight distribution for optimal handling.<\/p>\n<p>The designers have also integrated LED head, tail and fog lights, and active air vents, and streamlined the shape to a slippery drag coefficient of 0.30. Under that slanted roofline, they&#8217;ve still managed to fit an 18.5-cubic-foot luggage compartment \u2013 which may not seem like much for a crossover, but it&#8217;s still more than you&#8217;d find in a 3 Series sedan. Fold the rear seats down (in a variable 40:20:40 split) and that figure expands to over 50 cubic feet. And a proliferation of stowage areas help with the versatility aspect as well.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_239604\" style=\"width: 1920px\" \/><figcaption \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\"
