As the smallest utility vehicle in the BMW lineup, the X1 is motivated by a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that produces 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. This is transferred to all four wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission. For customers seeking sharper styling and a more dynamic driving experience, an M Sport package can be specified. A new generation of the BMW X1 is coming for the 2022 model year.
