BMW X1 F48 LCI

Subcompact Crossover

Product Gallery

Product Overview

BMW X1 F48 LCI is a subcompact crossover in production from 2019. It is available with a range of inline-3 and inline-4 engines that displaced 1.5 to 2.0 liters.

Compared to the pre-facelift, the LCI only differs with moderate cosmetic updates. The one new drivetrain is that in the xDrive25e PHEV.

Those who drive offroad, for work or leisure, need to think twice before pulling the trigger: the BMW X1 is hardly the "offroader" that BMW would like you to think. BMW has made a good effort in aerodynamics, with a decent 0.28 coefficient of drag to show for it.

Reviewer score 47% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from autocar have found:

The facelifted X1 line-up starts with the front-wheel-drive sDrive16i. There are seven different X1 models, including the new xDrive25e plug-in hybrid. Three models offer the choice of front or four-wheel drive, while the remainder feature four- wheel drive as standard. With 228bhp and a healthy 332lb ft of torque available between 1500 and 3000rpm, it certainly delivers on the performance front.

Pros

Powerful turbocharged petrol engine
Good standard equipment
Decent infotainment system

Cons

Ridiculously choppy ride
Slightly heavier than rivals

Reviewer score 70% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from autoexpress have found:

The X1 is based on the same UKL2 platform as the MINI Countryman and Clubman, BMW 2 Series Active and Gran Tourers and the coupe-styled X2 crossover. The platform is offered with front or four-wheel drive, so unlike the previous X1, there's no rear-wheel-drive option on the current model. Prices for the X1 start from around £29,000 and rise to around £40,000.

Pros

Sleek styling
Cheap to run

Cons

No rear-wheel drive option
No front-wheel-drive option
