1. appearance

in terms of appearance, all four models have very obvious family design elements. among them, the bmw x2 adopts a large-size "double kidney" air intake grille, matched with irregular headlights on both sides, which has a high degree of recognition and makes people recognize it as a bmw at a glance. alfa romeo tonali is a classic italian sports style. the interior of the triangular front grille adopts a black honeycomb mesh design. the sharp and narrow headlights stretch the visual width of the front of the car. lexus ux is a standard japanese elegance. the front of the car adopts a family-style spindle-shaped air intake grille and is equipped with slender irregular headlights. mini countryman focuses on fashion style. the hexagonal air intake grille and round headlights are the classic designs of mini brand models.

in terms of body size, all four models are positioned as compact suvs, giving people a small and exquisite visual effect. in terms of parameters, the bmw x2 has an advantage in body length, width and wheelbase, and has better interior space performance; the alfa romeo tonali has the most outstanding body height.

in terms of exterior configuration, the bmw x2 is the only one among the four models that comes standard with an electric trunk and electric trunk position memory. the alfa romeo tonali relies on the unique rear side privacy glass to improve the privacy of rear passengers. in comparison, the configuration level of the lexus ux is slightly lower and there is still room for improvement.

2. interior

in terms of interior, the bmw x2 adopts a dual-screen design with a more technological feel; the alfa romeo tonali adopts an italian-style concise style; the lexus ux inherits the brand's usual restraint and luxury; the design of the mini countryman is most popular among young people, with a rounded retro style and a sense of fashion. in terms of technological sense, except for the mini countryman, the center console display screens of the other three models adopt a floating design.
