Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Much faster than you'd expect
Decent battery range
Roomy and comfortable

Cons
Touchscreen could be easier to use
Not cheap to buy
Doesn't handle as well as it goes

By: 
carwow.co.uk

Pros
Design,
overall build quality,
performance,
handling and ride

Cons
Expensive for a ‘small’ SUV,
some of the interior certainly doesn't match the price

By: 
topgear.com

PROS
Trendy design,
powerful electric powertrain,
thoughtful interior storage solutions.

CONS
Some rivals offer more driving range,
heavy and feels like it in corners,
high starting price.

BMW has given its smallest crossover a visual freshening for 2020, with larger front grilles, new front and rear bumpers, updated LED lighting elements, and fresh wheel designs. Last year's standard 6.5-inch infotainment display has been scrapped in favor of the previously optional 8.8-inch unit with navigation. BMW revised the eight-speed automatic transmission for 2020, but we haven't driven it yet so we can't confirm BMW's claim that it shifts faster and more smoothly than before.

Pros
Eager powertrain, fun-to-drive nature, big cargo capacity.

Cons
Bar-stool shaped standard seats, slow-reacting infotainment interface, anonymous exterior design.

The 2020 BMW X1 comes with front wheel drive, and all wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 8-speed shiftable automatic.Refreshed exterior with a larger grille that mimics those on other BMWs.8.8-inch touchscreen now standard.Some package content has been shuffled.

Pros
Strong and responsive turbo engine
Sharp handling makes it fun to drive
Plenty of rear passenger and cargo room
High-quality materials and fit and finish

Cons
Ride quality gets a little jarring on rough roads
Not particularly quiet on the highway
