My new 2023 BMW X1 (U11) Review

BimmerTom94 · 10-18-2022, 05:28 AM

Hey everyone, I recently tested the all new 2023 BMW X1, I quite like the size of the new X1 and the ride was good. I found the seats up front quite tight. There are 2 screens up front that now host all the controls.
I quite like the uniqueness of 'expressive' mode.

That's the color I ordered. It's stunning. Is the hidden tow hitch standard on the US version?

The new X1 has the best implementation of iDrive 8 IMO. The layout and design is pretty much identical but the rounded corners on the screen make a significant difference between having it looked like it slapped on the dash (3er/M3) and sort of integrated (X1).

Still disappointed that the iDrive knob is gone and thr X1 is touch screen only.

Product looks good (finally don't have to avert my gaze with a new BMW launch). Look forward to the English version of this.

Ok, ok, just taking the piss.

Thanks for the review.

I have one coming in this week, mineral white on mocha, M-Sport & Premium enhanced packages, 20 inch wheel option. Drove the base model and it was comfortable.
