ABOUT THE 2024 BMW X1 XDRIVE28I
The 2024 BMW X1 xDrive28i belongs to the third-generation X1 (U11), which arrived in the US for the 2023 model year. It uses a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder rated at 241 hp and 295 lb-ft (400 Nm), with all-wheel drive and a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. BMW quotes 0–60 mph in 6.2 seconds.
Second year of a new X1
The U11 is larger than the F48 it replaced, with a longer wheelbase and a more upright, boxy design. The cabin moved to the Curved Display with iDrive 8 and a floating centre armrest that houses the gear selector and wireless phone charging. The 2024 car was otherwise little changed from the launch year, with the high-performance M35i joining the range alongside it.
Practicality
Front-wheel-drive-based packaging gives a roomy cabin for the footprint. The rear seat can slide and recline on some specifications, letting owners trade legroom for boot space, and the cargo floor is flat with the seats folded. It is built at Regensburg, Germany.
Ownership
The X1 is mechanically simpler than larger BMW SUVs, and its B48 engine is well proven. The touch-based controls take some learning, so try the infotainment before buying.
Rivals
The X1 competed with the Audi Q3, Mercedes-Benz GLA 250, Volvo XC40 and Lexus UX. For economy units, see mpg vs L/100km explained.
