2020 BMW X1 Review
Overview
Enjoy the act of driving no matter where you go. Small and nimble in town; poised and powerful on the highway; capably agile off-road—the BMW X1 is the perfect Sports Activity Vehicle. Choose from two models: the front-wheel-drive sDrive28i and the all-wheel-drive xDrive28i. A two-liter TwinPower Turbo engine gets your X1 from zero to sixty in as little as 6.3 seconds—and there’s lots of power down low for off-road adventures. But there’s more to the X1 than muscle. Inside there’s the BMW tradition of driver-focused ergonomics—but that’s not all. 37 inches of legroom and over 39 inches of head room mean even rear-seat passengers can get comfortable. You can control the BMW infotainment system with your voice or the iDrive controller. All you have to do is tell your X1 where you want to go and BMW Navigation with Advanced Real-Time Traffic Information makes the rest easy. Choose from a variety of colors options and accessories and build an X1 that’s all yours. The BMW X1. The overachiever in the BMW family.
Technology
When you’re an original’s little brother you have to try harder. That’s why the BMW X1’s iDrive infotainment system1 features voice control and the iDrive controller. With Navigation and Advanced Real-Time Traffic Information all you have to do is tell your X1 where you want to go and it’ll do the rest. The BMW Connected App links your smartphone smart watch and digital personal assistant to your X1 so you can control your X1 wherever you are. Send it directions set the cabin temperature see how much gas you have left and more. The BMW X1. Simply connected.
Safety
The BMW X1 isn’t just fun. It’s safe. Because it comes with the ABMW Active Driving Assistant which includes Lane Departure Warning Forward Collision Warning Speed Limit Info Automatic High Beams and more. Add available Active Cruise Control with Stop and Go and take the stress out of rush-hour traffic. You’ll also get Collision Mitigation. And of course the X1 has a comprehensive supplemental restraint system including dual-stage dual-deployment airbags and front and rear head protection. The BMW X1. Simply safer.
Performance
The BMW X1 is the perfect combination of agile power and compact footprint. 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque get you from zero to sixty in 6.3 seconds—and the torque comes on at 1450 RPM so there’s lots of power down low for off-road activities. sDrive front- or xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive plus Dynamic Stability and Traction Control help you grip all kinds of terrain in all kinds of weather. Electronically controlled M Sport suspension is available for an even better ride. The BMW X1. It’s a textbook overachiever.
