our expert's take

What Is the 2022 BMW X1?

The five-seat BMW X1 is a good fit for shoppers who want good cabin space and ample cargo room in a small SUV that’s easy to maneuver. The X1’s sole engine is a 228-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Front- and all-wheel-drive versions are offered, and competitors include the Audi Q3, Volvo XC40 and Cadillac XT4.

What’s New on the 2022 BMW X1?

There are no significant changes this year.

What Features in the 2022 BMW X1 Are Most Important?

Standard features include:

  • Power liftgate
  • 8-inch touchscreen navigation system
  • Apple CarPlay smartphone connectivity
  • Rain-sensing windshield wipers
  • Forward collision warning
  • Lane departure warning

Available features include:

  • Wireless device charging
  • Heated front seats
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Harman Kardon surround-sound system
  • Sliding and reclining backseat
  • Head-up display
  • Panoramic moonroof
  • Adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability
  • Lane-keeping assist

Should I Buy the 2022 BMW X1?

The X1 earns praise for its roomy interior, spacious cargo area, good outward visibility and quality cabin materials. Its turbo four-cylinder engine delivers solid passing power, but the SUV’s handling and brake-pedal feel leave something to be desired considering the BMW badge on the hood.

from honda crv to bmw x1-was it worth it

this is my first bmw, being a toyota and honda guy previously. this is a honda plus, meaning the refinements you wished your honda had, this has. powerful, comfortable and a bit more luxury. not quite the gas mileage of my crv but a super automobile. so if your looking at this you must be contemplating a purchase. do it you won't be sorry.
