Buyer’s Guide
History/Overview
The subcompact X1 is BMW’s most affordable crossover model, and one of its most accessible offerings overall. It was an early entry in the luxury subcompact utility class at its 2012 introduction and helped establish the category, prompting a wide range of competitive products from other automakers.
What’s New/Key Changes From Last Year
For 2023, BMW has redesigned the X1 into an all-new third generation.
Available Trims
The BMW X1 comes in a single xDrive28i trim, and is powered by a 2.0L turbo four-cylinder engine, AWD, and a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Standard Features
Among the X1’s standard features are 18-inch alloy wheels, remote engine start, LED headlights with automatic high beams, and a hands-free tailgate. Inside, you’ll find leatherette upholstery, power-adjustable front seats, ambient cabin lighting, a parking assistant, satellite radio, and a curved combination infotainment display and gauge cluster.
Standard safety kit includes front/rear parking sensors, rear cross traffic alert, forward collision mitigation, lane departure warning, and rear collision prevention.
Key Options
The X1’s options list includes an xLine package of satin aluminum exterior trim, and “sensatec” dash trim.
An M sport package adds an adaptive suspension, shift paddles, gloss black exterior trim, a leather steering wheel, sport seats, and “sensatec” dash trim.
The premium essential pack bundles auto-dimming mirrors, passive keyless entry, heated front seats/steering wheel, a panoramic roof, and wireless phone charging. The premium enhanced package builds on those items with a drive recorder, an upgraded gauge cluster, Harman/Kardon audio, a head-up display, an interior camera, and surround-view cameras.
Fuel Economy
BMW’s fuel consumption estimates for the X1 are 9.6/7.0 L/100 km (city/highway).

2023 BMW X1 Review: Entry-Level SUV is Not Barebones
The 2023 BMW X1 is the most affordable way to get into the automaker’s lineup. As the brand’s entry-level model, it has a big responsibility to be a lot of things to a lot of people and deliver a true BMW experience at a price that won’t scare people away. And yet this third-generation version doesn’t feel like any corners were cut in spite of its entry-level roots, and it’s an excellent representation of what the brand is all about.
