BMW X1 exterior and interior

The third-generation X1 was launched at the third BMW Joytown festival in January. It is now larger than its predecessor in all dimensions, being 53mm longer, 24mm wider and 44mm taller, with its wheelbase 22mm longer. 

It now wears a new, slightly larger grille with the bumper getting more angular creases with blacked-out inserts. The headlamps are sleeker than before and feature BMW’s new inverted L-shaped Daytime Running Lamps. In profile, the X1 has flush-fitting door handles and rides on 18-inch alloys. At the back, the SUV gets L-shaped wraparound LED tail-lamps and a sculpted tail gate. 

The biggest change in the X1 is the new curved display that is similar to the one seen on the BMW X7, 7 series and 3 Series Gran Limousine. The floating centre console has houses few physical buttons and the slim AC vents are now neatly integrated into the dash. 

BMW X1 powertrain and performance

The new X1 is available with petrol (sDrive 18i) and diesel (sDrive 18d) engine options in India. The former is available in the xLine trim, while the latter is available with the M Sport trim.
