that's because X1 is based on e90. It doesn't have EPS, suspension, or size of F30.

Btw, in 2010 I also was comparing the current C class to my e90 and e90 won in handling, steering feel, and interior finish in my opinion. The only category C was better was the exterior shape and looks. With release of F30, BMW lost suspension and steering feel, and gained ever worst looking exterior. Thus I am not surprised C wins in the class.
