The X1 and Countryman are not on the same platform. They are close to the same physical size, but you are comparing fwd vs rwd layouts, BMW engine vs PSA/BMW JV engine, etc.
BMW does have a plan for a new vehicle, sub 1-series, transverse engine, to be fwd and awd. This is other than the upcoming electric city car. The plan is for the new vehicle (0 series?) to share a platform with the 2014 Mini.
