Inside the X1

A Cockpit Built Around You.

The BMW Curved Display sweeps across the dash, pairing digital instruments with intuitive touch control. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, and over-the-air updates keep it getting better after delivery.

BMW X1 cargo space

Room for Real Life

Small Footprint. Big Appetite.

Fold the 40/20/40 rear seats and the X1 opens up to 1,600 litres of cargo space — bikes, gear, flat-pack furniture, all of it. Class-leading rear legroom means passengers never pay the price.

BMW X1 driving dynamics

The Drive

It Actually Drives Like a BMW.

Most compact SUVs are tall hatchbacks with badges. The X1's chassis tuning, quick steering, and standard xDrive all-wheel drive make the daily commute the best part of the day — rain, snow, or shine.

Why Drivers Switch

Three Reasons Owners Trade Their Keys.

The X1 wins comparison tests. Here's what wins hearts.

01
Benchmark Performance

241 horsepower and standard xDrive all-wheel drive put the X1 at the front of its class before a single option box is ticked.

02
More Space, Zero Compromise

Class-leading rear legroom and up to 1,600 litres of cargo mean you don't have to size up — or pay up — to fit real life inside.

03
Tech That's Standard, Not Optional

The BMW Curved Display, wireless smartphone connectivity, and over-the-air updates come standard — features often reserved for upper trims elsewhere.
