BMW X1 (U11)
The third iteration of the BMW X1, a range of subcompact luxury crossover SUVs (C-segment), consists of the U11 short-wheelbase model and the U12 long-wheelbase model. The U11 X1 was revealed in June 2022, and launched in select markets globally in late 2022, and early 2023.[1] Unveiled in June 2022, it has an optional choice of front and all-wheel drive using BMW's xDrive AWD system. Based on the UKL2 platform, it is based on the same platform on the previous model.
Overview
Base models are front-wheel drive (branded as sDrive), with all-wheel drive (xDrive) available as an option (standard for some higher-end models).[2][3] Like the BMW iX3, the all-electric iX1 will not be available in the United States nor Canada.[4]
The redesigned X1 has an updated interior similar to that of the iX, i4, and 2023 3 Series. It features a 10.25 inch digital gauge cluster as well as a 10.7 inch center screen running BMW's iDrive 8 infotainment system.
The long-wheelbase model was introduced in China in April 2023 under the model code U12,[5] with available 1.5-litre turbo petrol (20Li) and 2.0-litre turbo petrol (25Li).[6]
M35i xDrive
In June 2023, the M35i xDrive higher performance version was announced. The M35i xDrive uses 2-litre 4-cylinder turbocharged engine which generates 300hp and 400Nm. For selected countries and the United States, it generates an additional 17 horsepower. It accelerates from 0-60mph in 5.4 seconds and its top speed is limited to 155mph. Deliveries for the United States begin in October 2023 while deliveries for the rest of the world begin in November 2023. [7]
Equipment
The X1 features equipment such as heated front seats (sDrive18i exclusive) and heated steering wheel via a subscription on the BMW ConnectedDrive store. All U11 models receive a ‘Curved Display Unit’, meaning it combines a 10.25-inch digital dial display along with a 10.7-inch infotainment screen.[8]
The boot is 50 litres larger than the outgoing model, with 540 litres with seats up, and 1,600 litres with the seats down. The X1 receives more safety equipment compared to the F48, along with more technology, power and performance.[9]
An M Sport package is available that adds adaptive suspension (available for the first time on the X1), a lower ride height, and interior and exterior styling elements. The package also includes sport seats and launch control with paddle shifters on the M-Sport steering wheel. [10]
For the X1 sold in the US, the optional Active Seats with Lumbar Support includes massaging seat function for both front seats. Massaging seat intensity and timer can only be controlled from the touchscreen.
