The New BMW X1 is Around The Corner

BMW lovers around the world are sitting on the edge of their seats, waiting for the official release of the newly updated BMW X1.

This compact luxury SUV gives drivers a practical and fun ride. The 2021 version of this sophisticated machine hit the market without any real changes or upgrades. Before that, it had some minor refreshes and additions, but nothing too significant. All of that points to a complete redesign that should kick of the X1’s third generation.

Here’s what we know so far about this highly-anticipated update

Add Some Turbo To Your Life

The new BMW X1 comes with a single powertrain that is sure to knock your socks off. Under the hood, you’ll find a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine attached to an eight-speed automatic transmission.

The robust 228 horsepower helps launch this joy-rider from zero to 60 mph in a mere 6.3 seconds. That means the X1 is one of the quickest vehicles in its class. While all models come with a standard front-wheel-drive drivetrain, an all-wheel-drive is an option as well.

Where the BMW X1 is really gunning for first place is in the fuel-efficiency category. BMW likes to compare its compact SUV with the Mercedes-Benz GLA250. You’ll enjoy at least an EPA-estimated 31 mpg on the highway.

Pure Beauty Inside and Out

The premium materials found inside the X1 are exactly what you’d expect from a BMW luxury vehicle. The cockpit is focused on the driver with easy-to-access and use controls.

Don’t forget the spacious 27 cubic feet of cargo volume. Just because it’s a compact SUV doesn’t mean it can’t provide plenty of room for your luggage, groceries, or gear.

Outside, you’ll love the aggressive grille that almost seems to smile at other vehicles as you pass. This car just puts off good-time energy that matches its smooth lines and sophisticated look. There’s no doubt that this bad boy is a BMW.

Upgraded Galore

Feast your eyes on the new 8.8-inch iDrive system. This infotainment center comes with built-in navigation, Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth connectivity, and SiriusXM satellite radio. Make sure you consider upgrading the standard seven-speaker audio system with the available 12-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system to blast the soundtrack to your next road trip.

If you’re into advanced driver-assist safety features, the BMW X1 will not disappoint. You’ll get several standard systems, including forward-collision warnings, lane-departure warnings, and automatic high beams.

The Future Is Bright

Although the official release date of the newest BMW X1 isn’t on the calendar yet, the expected facelift and redesign is coming soon.
