Almost identical to the 228i, the xDrive swaps out the standard front-wheel drivetrain for an all-wheel-drive version. This allows for up to 50% of the engine’s power to be sent to the rear wheels and also improves traction for better handling. The result is a slightly improved 0-60 mph sprint time of six seconds over the FWD’s 6.3 seconds. However, the added weight of the system comes at the cost of fuel economy, losing one mpg of efficiency across the city/highway/combined cycles. The 228i xDrive gets all the same comforts and conveniences, though, such as power-adjustable front seats, dual-zone climate control, and comprehensive safety and infotainment suites.
