hi, how was the general handling of this new X1? i saw another video and steering wheel was waggly. it is not as other bmw models. did you feel anything like that?
From my point of view: The steering is quite responsive and feels as direct as on a BMW X1 xDrive23i, which I also drove. Of course, you can feel the higher weight of the BMW iX1 and it feels a bit more unsettled on the road compared to the X1 with a combustion engine. But driving casual it's a comfortable ride. The adaptive suspension is soft enough to absorb uneven roads. (Christian)
Thank you very much for watching the video. The BMW iX1 has real one-pedal-driving, you just need to switch the gear shifter to the B mode. If somebody thinks, the one-pedal-driving is too aggressive, just choose the adaptive mode, which allows three different levels of regeneration. (Christian)
Great! Thank you! I hope i get mine hopefully this year! But the information for the Quots for the Produktionvalue comming 13.10.2022. Fingers crossed! (Alex)
The BMW iX1 is actually quiet. However, the microphone is very sensitive. At the beginning of the video, even the light wind sounds loud. In addition, depending on the sometimes rough road surface, the rolling noise of the tyres, which you would hear in any car, comes into play during the ride. On other parts in the video, the BMW iX1 is really quiet. Furthermore you perceive every other noise in an electric car more strongly, because it is basically so quiet. (Christian)
Hey man, I've got some questions: 1. What colours is this models in? i dont think at the ordering page the colour make sense but this video might give me a hint. 2. What type of seats and material are in this vehicle, and which one would you recommend? I'm looking to business lease a x1xdrive30e, and want to keep the extras as low as possible, but I value comfort in the seats.
The BMW iX1 xDrive30 was a prototype. So I don't have any detailed specifications. The name of the exterior colour should be "BMW Individual Frozen Pure Grey Metallic", which is really very stylish. We have sport seats (they are comfortable) and an upholstery in black perforated Sensatec. The interior trim finishers are called "Aluminium Mesheffect". But show this video to you BMW dealer - they should identify the exact interior specifications. (Christian)
BMW states for the iX1 xDrive30 officially an average electric power consumption of 16.8 - 18.1 kWh per 100 kilometres according to the realistic WLTP cycle. I switched the gear shifter to the B mode to get the strongest regeneration mode. Using different modes from efficient to sport and driving mainly on country roads (cities allow a higher recuperation of energy) I achieved overall an average consumption of about 20 kwh/100 km. Having a larger part of city driving, the WLTP consumption should be achievable. (Christian)
We started to keep the POV videos in this style, because many people simply want to experience the ride without any comments and see, for example, how quiet a particular electric car is, how a car accelerates and much more. We also point this out in the description of the video. In our magazine we will have a detailed review about the BMW iX1.(Christian)

Is there any internal LED lighting in this version? As in the previous version you can also change the color.
If you mean the ambient light: Yes, the BMW iX1 has it as an option and you can change the colour etc. (Christian)

Tanks for the Video! The ix1 has no "one pedal driving" to full stop and auto hold, right?
Thank you very much for watching the video. The BMW iX1 has real one-pedal-driving, you just need to switch the gear shifter to the B mode. If somebody thinks, the one-pedal-driving is too aggressive, just choose the adaptive mode, which allows three different levels of regeneration. (Christian)

@@nerowork2876 I keep my fingers crossed for you! As soon as you get your BMW iX1, please share your personal experiences with all of us. (Christian)
Kind of loud for a electric car, or is it because it’s electric all the other noise seems louder

how about the energy comsumption during your test? did u check the values in each drive mod?
BMW states for the iX1 xDrive30 officially an average electric power consumption of 16.8 - 18.1 kWh per 100 kilometres according to the realistic WLTP cycle. I switched the gear shifter to the B mode to get the strongest regeneration mode.

Could you tell me how the car is soundproofed at 120-140 km/h ?
Maybe this part of the POV video helps you: ua-cam.com/video/glyMm0B8Gws/v-deo.html (Christian)
What is the model X1 plug-in hybrid? Thank you in advance
In the video I drove the full-electric BMW iX1 xDrive30. There will be two plug-in-hybrids named BMW X1 xDrive30e and BMW X1 xDrive25e. (Christian)
hello do you know the topspeed of this car?
BMW iX1 xDrive 30: The top speed is limited to 180 km/h (112 mph). (Christian)
Not interesting w/o any comments about the driving and the quality etc….
