2022 BMW X1
Overview
In its second generation, the 2022 BMW X1 is a compact SUV that boasts gargantuan luxury and monstrous value. Proudly wearing the unmistakable BMW badge, the X1 exudes character, confidence, and—of course—the performance you’ve come to expect from the brand. Whether you’re looking for a premium commuter vehicle or a chariot to help you explore new roads, the dynamic BMW X1 will meet your needs and exceed your expectations.
The Perfect Ride For...
Although the BMW X1 may dominate the luxury compact SUV segment, it’s actually in a class of its own — Sports Activity Vehicle. You can choose between two different X1 models: xDrive28i and sDrive28i. What’s the difference? The sDrive28i model is a front-wheel-drive compact SUV; while the xDrive28i is a more capable all-wheel-drive designed to tackle even more rigorous terrains and more inclement weather. When your X1 is equipped with BMW’s intelligent all-wheel drive system, it works around the clock to detect and anticipate wheel slippage and then send power to the wheels that need it the most.
The X1 offers comfortable seating for up to five passengers. Everyone in attendance will enjoy spacious headroom as well as available sliding rear seats. Best of all, the X1 is engineered to deliver the perfect balance of passenger space and cargo space. You’ll enjoy a spacious 58.7 cubic feet of maximum cargo space, so you can always be prepared for your next adventure or your child’s soccer practice. And if you need even more space for longer items, the X1’s 40/20/40 split-folding seats can be adjusted to meet your needs. Because of these innovative features and the X1’s ability to go where other compact SUVs wouldn’t dare, it’s the perfect vehicle for families, commuters, and weekend adventurers alike.
Drive and Handling
One of the key attributes that has propelled the BMW brand to the top of premium vehicles is performance. And the 2022 BMW X1 doesn’t disappoint. It’s powered by a super-efficient 4-cylinder TwinPower Turbo engine that produces a mind-boggling 228 horsepower to go from 0 to 60 in as little as 6.3 seconds. The state-of-the-art engine is mated to an 8-speed STEPTRONIC Automatic Transmission to deliver smooth shifting, quick acceleration, and next-level performance.
The BMW X1 offers drivers an elevated position, so you’ll enjoy a perfect vantage point of the road ahead. And while you’re driving, the X1’s available xDrive, intuitive handling, and adaptable suspension work around the clock to ensure you stay in a position of control. It features a virtually perfect 50/50 weight distribution, Dynamic Traction Control, and standard Dynamic Stability Control. Coupled with the power of a BMW, the X1 performs with unmistakable precision and comfort.
