About the BMW X1

Say hello to the smallest member of the growing Sports Activity Vehicle® family from BMW. The compact X1 offers limitless possibilities for adventure thanks to its potent yet efficient performance capabilities and striking design. Power comes from a standard 2.0-liter TwinPower Turbo 4-cylinder engine that offers a blend of exhilaration and fuel economy to take your adventures further than ever before. The bold styling of the X1 is highlighted by distinctive characteristics like standard LED headlights and taillights, chrome trim accents, and standard 18-inch alloy wheels.

Inside the cabin, you’ll discover a driver-focused command center that’s packed with the latest in connectivity features. Its available sport seats come upholstered with perforated SensaTec 2.0, each offered in a variety of colors and contrast stitching. Dynamic, capable, and ready to take on whatever your weekend plans have to offer – the BMW X1 continues to set the benchmark for the modern compact luxury SUV.

What the Critics Say

Luxurious equipment and extra power aside, the more assertive body shape and styling should help the X1 emerge from the small luxury SUV segment’s shadows. Considering how several of its key competitors remain small, hatchback-ish things, such as the Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class and Audi Q3, the X1’s rectilinear, more SUV-like duds bring it more in line with offerings like the Mercedes GLB-Class and Range Rover Evoque.” – MotorTrend
BMW has redesigned the X1 SUV for 2023. A more powerful four-cylinder engine resides behind a bolder dual-kidney grille. Its larger exterior dimensions promise slightly more interior space for passengers and cargo than the previous generation offered.” – Car and Driver

What’s New for 2023

The popular compact BMW X1 receives a significant refresh for the 2023 modern year. On the exterior, the X1 receives redesigned styling featuring standard LED lighting and a more streamlined front fascia along with a signature rear spoiler. The X1 also benefits from increased horsepower and torque along with a new 7-speed dual-clutch transmission for more responsive performance. In addition to slightly larger exterior dimensions, the interior of the X1 now boasts greater space for drivers and passengers. An assortment of new technologies and driver-assist features round out the comprehensive collection of updates to the dynamic BMW X1 for 2023.
