BMW has certainly arrived well in the mid-size scooter segment with the C400X. Thanks to the competitive performance, the propulsion is completely satisfactory and, in combination with the sporty chassis, even gives rise to real riding pleasure. In addition, the scooter can be equipped to a very high standard (for an additional charge) and can almost be raised to motorbike level. Unfortunately, the sporty tuning of the suspension struts is not much fun on bad roads, and the front brake does not do justice to the scooter's character.
