First BMW that I've owned and will be the last. Bought it new in November of 2018 and 500 miles in it had a major steering issue that took the dealership weeks to figure/fix and no loaners available around holidays so I was stuck driving a Nissan versa that felt like it would fall apart at 55 mph. The issue was fixed and no problems with that since. Drives fine. Weatherstrip along the edge of windshield looks like its 10 years old after a year and the dealer says it's not their problem but something I've done. I park in a garage at night and in an open parking lot at the office. We take good care of our vehicles so it's not something I've done. Not worth the money and technology is lagging behind most competitors. Also the worst cooling AC I've ever seen. It has these two vents on the dash behind the info screen that blow a lot of air but the other vents suffer because of this and you literally can feel the air coming out of the other front vents without it on high. Update: Got rid of it because it had too many problems. Also got rid of 2016 328. AVOID BMWs! Not worth the hassle.

I "upgraded" from a Jeep Cherokee to brand new X1 lease but after 18months of use, I am not impressed and not happy at all. You expect a better engine with some performance, the engine is still better than my 2015 Jeep but not by much. Jeep had better materials, at least everything you touched felt expensive and that's not the case for X1. I am also getting cracking noises from the back seats, since the seats are multi position the mechanism is rattling and service is useless. They will be nice and have a look at it for a day or so but never ever fixed an issue with noise so far. My GF has a Chevy cruse and that thing is much smoother in terms of noises. On top this car has absolutely no technology. Small screen with no navigation. I have 2 BMWs and it is really discouraging to see that competition closed the gap with the engine and ahead of BMW at least 10years in terms of infotainment technology. This was not the case when I got my first brand new BMW at 2006. Now I am really waiting for my lease to end to get a Tesla or back to Jeep if I want to go cheap. Update: 6/3/2020: Still same issues and this car is not worth to own it, as soon as my lease ends I am switching to a Tesla, done with really fragile stuff that barely works. Update: 12/06/2020: after driving X3 and getting a really good deal on it, I still decided to go ahead and order Tesla Model Y. I still don’t think BMW has enough technology in terms of entertainment and self driving and electrification... so I will not be happy with a 2l engine and older looking vehicle...

Now one-year old with only 3500 miles (I don't like driving the car), the X1 drives very skittish, perhaps due to the short wheel base. Every bump on the road is felt (even in comfort mode). Going around corners throws the driver around in seat. Acceleration from a standing stop is unfortunately rabbit-like, and stopping is too sharp rather than a softer touch. There is too much of a "mommy" in the in-cabiin warnings, because you are constantly reminded do this or do that that really gets on my nerves. I suppose constant warnings are a result of BMW wanting to save their bacon by alerting you to every little thing. Resetting the low-tire warning is a pain (i.e. takes multiple steps). I could go on, but in short the car is an overpriced vehicle. (And expensive to repair - did I mention $500 and 1/2 day to put in a new battery? Fortunately it was in warranty.)

Rebadged Mini that kinda works

The overall package seems promising a smaller SUV package that works for people that don’t like big cars(me). Pro: Smaller but with good features, sharper handling than most SUVs, okay-ish mpg, AWD capability, maintenance won’t break your bank. Con: rebadged Mini reliability(not too great), mini parts in a bigger car means more wear/maintenance(especially breaks, tires, etc), bad engine mount design, overwhelming BMW electronic/sensor comes with cost and time when dealing with, electrical problems come and go with no reason. Smaller backseat and room than a similar size sedan.

BMW has gone in the direction of high reliability with this car. The B46 engine is derived from its partnership with Toyota to build the Toyota Supra. I understand Toyota worked with BMW to create a smooth, reliable engine. Even the transmission is a Japanese Aisin. The drivetrain has been bullet proof and still feels new. The X1 is fun to drive, light and agile. We see 9.1 liters/ 100 km fuel consumption in our driving which I consider economical. In Canada the X1 is the only model in the X line that is German made. In the 100k we only needed to replace the front brake pads, and spark plugs. I also did oil changes, a coolant change and spraying valve cleaner. I used a coding service to add Carplay to the Connected Drive media system. This integrated perfectly. This has been an excellent car to own. The design is exceptional inside and out - the 2018 design cues were a high water mark for the X1. The equipment the X1 came with gave impressive comfort and performance that has held up well over 5 years. My wife still loves driving it. Her only issue is the visibility in the rear view mirror. The 2019 X1 went heavier on driver assist features to help.

BMW Sports Car, Not little SUV

Amazing! My favorite car ever--first BMW, now forever a fan. Owned a new RX7 rotary and preowned Lexus SC400; just not the same. It's so nice when things just work right! Not luxury for comfort's sake, a Good car in every aspect is luxurious! So sensitive! Touch the gas any speed, you immediately go faster. Touch the brakes, you're going slower! They deserve their motto, after a couple weeks. Driving is Fun again! 31.8 mpg highway right now.

Fantastic small SUV that's fun to drive. We bought in Germany w/a large discount and free shipping to the US offered- it was too much to pass up. Dealer provided $600 in gifts and 1 yr Sirius radio for free. Used the heated seats and heated steering well extensively in Germany and now in the US. Nav system is terrific, although was expensive to load the US maps once we returned to the US. Very comfortable on long trips, love the ambient lighting, sun roof, and safety features. Only "complaint" is gas MPG isn't great- mid 20's around town and max 29-31 MPG on the hiway w/89+ octane fuel. As a US MX clerk said, "you don't buy these cars for gas mileage". A keeper for years.
Not a good car

I bought mine brand new and it has 10,000 miles. The crazy part is I already had to change new tires after 10,000 miles! The Pirelli P7 CINTURATO P7 ALL SEASON RUN FLAT - SIZE: 225/50R17 that came from the factory do not have any warranty and I was shocked that they told me I have to replace mine after 10,000 miles. Also the backup camera is constantly not working, I suspect it has to do with Apple Car Play compatibility. The dealership cannot do much to fix the problem. The drive is rather rough but I suspect that's just how it is with a mini SUV. Overall I don't recommend it as it has too many problems for a brand new car and the ride is not great.

Take a long and winding test drive

I have owned this car for a week and have a bit of buyer's remorse. I test drove the car but not for long enough. It seemed fine on a short drive but the model I bought can be described as stiff and hard to steer. It has 220 horsepower but it sure doesn't feel that powerful because it is not smooth or responsive. Should have held out for the new Audi Q3 that is coming out this fall. Maybe I need to break it in more but wish I had shopped around more and not have relied so much on the reviews.
