The x1 is the perfect small suv for singles or small families. Great in all weather conditions. Excellent gas mileage.

We leased this BMW because it was their least expensive lease. BMW always does this. Even if the MSRP is higher, they will offer different vehicles with lower leases since they don't have a lower priced vehicle. Now they have the 2 Series Gran Coupe, but as of right now, the X1 lease is still less where equipped identically. The X1, X2, and 2 Series Gran Coupe are all based on the same platform. So plan that the X1 will have the most rear seat room and rear storage followed by the X2 and series. Our X1 has the PDC and rear camera which are welcome must-haves. The rear and rear quarter visibility is MUCH better and safer than the X2. Since we have both, the rear seat room is the same in X1 and X2. It's the rear storage that is much more in the X1. Since we already had an X2 with sport seats and 19" wheels and since we wanted to save money, our X1 has 18" wheels and no sport package. It rides much softer this way and is easier to get in and out of. It also has the heated steering wheel which we love. It is excellent all-around and we use it for all of our errands. Really feels like a BMW. We HATE that it doesn't have blind spot detection or rear cross traffic alert. The front crash alert is a joke and only a toy. Even in the most sensitive setting, it only provides a dim red light on the dash and way too late and close. Totally useless. There are Nissans with AWD that are half the price that come with all these features and much more as standard. We heard the new 2-series Gran Coupe has more features. We also heard the next gen X1 and X2 will have them. Unfortunately we now have an interior rattle coming from the right side. We had another one that they attributed to a loose bolt in the sunroof track. Now we have another one that the dealer has not been able to isolate. I'm sorry but this should not happen in a $46K vehicle. Something is loose, out of place, or not tightened down properly hidden somewhere in the right side front passenger area. We hear it every day and it is scary that the dealer would have to take apart the interior to try to find it which could make things worse.... In a design that's been around since 2015, we hoped they would have gotten rid of all the bugs by now. Otherwise, although this is an older design begging for an update it is still quite excellent as an every day vehicle. Excellent ride and sporty feel. Great performance that other companies continue to try to copy. This is the original and is still obviously a BMW. Just a note, we will NEVER get a daily driver again without rear cameras, PDC, blind spot monitors, and rear cross traffic alerts.

Went from a smooth riding Lexus sedan to X1 and I love it. Call it mid-life crisis or whatever...but wanted to drive a fun, sportier car with cargo room and decided on the BMW X1 after researching several other cars in this class. The interior is roomy enough, cargo space is great and I love that it"s not bulky like many other SUV's. Has great power and handles well. One con, if you want to call it a con - the hands free entry is a bit slow to react compared to the Lexus, but I'm sure I'll get used to it - only had it for 2 weeks. All in all, a really cool SUV!

AVOID THE X1 AT ALL COSTS!

I have a 2017 X1 sDrive28i and it has been the worst BMW I have ever owned. It has spent more time in the BMW service department than I have actually driven it. I have had constant problems, the brakes have been replaced FOUR times and it still doesn't qualify under CA State lemon laws. So many recalls, insufficient power if u need it, IT IS FRONT WHEEL DRIVE, WHICH IS AWFUL (<I>unless you get the AWD version</I>). The Goodyear RunFlat tires wear out extremely too fast, had to replace mine at 23K miles out of 50K they are guaranteed for. There are way too many rattles, creaks and a lot of interior materials are very cheap quality; the suspension is showing signs of being a 10 year old car, not a 2 year old one. The brake calipers are rusted (<i>after 11K miles, and I live in CA where it doesn't rain and no harsh environmental conditions like back east</i>) <b>and BMW will not cover them under the factory warranty</b> (<i>which should be due to the low quality material they are that makes them rust so fast</i>). I have ultimately concluded that if I had to get another one, or recommend this model to anyone, I WOULDN'T. <b>I am so unhappy with it.</b> It has been so frustrating to own, the worst BMW I have ever had (<I>I have had 5 before this one, all 3 series</I>). BMW needed to work out all the bugs - this is the 2nd year of this body style - so I thought they had. Every single person I see at My BMW Center who owns an X1 agree with me: the X1 is a great temporary loaner vehicle when your BMW is being serviced, but NEVER to own yourself. The X1 ages and wears out absolutely way too quickly. <b>Avoid the X1 at all costs.</b> Thank god I leased mine - <b>cannot wait to get out of it!!!!</b>

Excellent purchase experience at the dealership set high expectations for the vehicle. So far, so good, after only two months. Ideal town car for my driving needs. Visually attractive exterior and interior. Very smart design. Very satisfied and looking forward to many years with this vehicle.
