BMW X1: New engines and restyling for popular cross-over

Author:

Revised exterior styling combined with a subtly evolved cabin distinguish the newest BMW X1 series.

There is a new all-diesel range of engines with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology and EfficientDynamics and Sport and xLine models join traditional SE and M Sport.

With revised dynamic exterior styling, detail improvements to the cabin and a new range of advanced diesel engines, every rear-wheel drive X1 now emits less than 130g/km of CO2, and with the option of a new eight-speed automatic gearbox combined with BMW’s award-winning EfficientDynamics technologies, the new BMW X1 range is more efficient than ever before.

Company car tax bands for the updated BMW X1 range from just 17% for the EfficientDynamics model to 24%.

Customers can now also choose from two new models: Sport and xLine. In addition, SE and M Sport specifications receive an increase in standard equipment, further enhancing the value to the customer.  Priced from £24,660 for the BMW X1 sDrive18d and rising to £31,860 for the xDrive25d, the new BMW X1 goes on sale from July.
