I think Mini can help BMW to claim a higher average gas mileage on all cars/SAV combined sold, unless someone know for sure they separate that calculation between the two brands. This, together with electric cars, can help BMW survive existing and new gas mileage mandates.
I don't think wagon, even performance versions, is making a come back any time soon. The new X3 drives better than many cars on the road. My G01 M40i can more than hold its own vs many sporty cars (or even sport cars) on the road. I cross-shopped this vs. 540i and have to say the M40i was much more BMW-like than the 540 sedan.
