As X1s built before March, 2023 have MGU22/MGU22H head units which are compatible with id8.5 and X1s built after March or July,23 (depending on region) have IDC23 units which are id9 compatible.
Based on the hardware support, we have a reason to rejoice

I mean it's not impossible, but highly unlikely. BMW representatives have previously stated in interviews that ID8 U11 vehicles are not compatible with ID9, and that the X1 would not be getting 8.5 at all. After seeing the many complaints about iD9 here, I'm perfectly happy with staying on ID8. Everything that I use daily works without issue, though I am a bit disappointed that as an early production model there are not many options in the Connected Drive store for me to add on compared to current production vehicles.
