- The BMW X1 sdrive16i xline is the 2nd generation BMW X1 and will sit within Category A COE. The entry level car in BMW's range of small SUVs or compact SUVs has grown up significantly though, delivering better ride quality, larger wheel arches, 540 litres of boot space, more legroom in the rear seats, a redesigned kidney grille, and will sport the same refined 1.5 litre turbocharged 3 cylinder found in other cars such as the 2 Series Active Tourer, 2 Series Gran Coupe, and the 1 Series Hatchback.

Hi - are you planning to do a review for The new Tiguan?
Yes! Coming up in August
Hi - the three cylinder engine has got a lot of attention versus the upcoming GLA’s mild hybrid engine. Buy this or wait for the new GLA?
Well I guess it depends on which variant of the upcoming GLA is available to you. If hybridisation is important to you, then the GLA is a good option. I haven’t tested the new GLA so I can’t say which drives better - but you can’t go wrong with the X1. It’s very refined for a 3 cylinder, makes a nice sound, and driving dynamics are good. Space utilisation is also excellent.
@@roadpilgrim thanks
Will u be doing a review of GLA180?
This or the GLB? Provided the GLB has been around for quite sometime alr
Unless you need the 7 seats from the GLB or you have a brand inclination toward Mercedes-Benz, I think the X1 is a better buy. Better engine, good looking, and technologically more up to date.
@@roadpilgrim thanks!
Why is it labeled a 2022, whwn the revised x1 starts with the 2023 year designation?
Hey thanks for the question. This car was actually launched in Singapore in Dec 2022. Thus for the Singapore market we refer to it as a 2022 model.
how is the boot space like?
It’s 540 litres which is class leading. For reference the current GLA and Q3 have about 100 litres less.
was that engine growl piped into the cabin?
Yes it is. 😂 to be fair though, the 3 cylinder does sound quite decent on its own as well.
The only time I drove this vehicle, I could feel a lot of noise from the engine and definitely a bit of rattle. Steering is very light , but the ride is a bit firm
How is this car in stop and go traffic?
The auto start/stop isn’t quite as seamless and quick as some of the more premium BMW models in my opinion. But other than that the car is quite spritely off the line. Moves easily.
We in Malaysia are lucky. We get xdrive20. I heard the the drive is quite jigling. Is that true?
Ah ok that’s good. Probably a much better drive with the 4 cylinder. But wouldn’t you just buy an X3 in that case?
I drive the previous generation X1. I think it's due to the run flat tyres that has hard sidewalls.
This or the Active Tourer would be a better buy?
Same engine and same chassis. They feel almost identical to drive. But the X1 is definitely the more complete package overall.
hey man, thanks for sharing. Appreciate it!
