2020 BMW X1 Trims Comparison

2020 X1 trim level differences

The X1 is available in two trim levels, the front-wheel drive X1 sDrive28i or the all-wheel-drive X1 xDrive28i. Every X1 comes with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine good for 228 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission is also standard.

The X1 comes with a reasonable list of standard features, and BMW will happily sell you more in one of its option packages. But every X1 comes with features such as simulated leather seats, an 8.8-inch touchscreen, a navigation system, Apple CarPlay smartphone integration, power-adjustable front seats, automatic wipers and a power liftgate. A variety of advanced driver safety features, such as forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, are also standard.

The Convenience package adds a sunroof, auto-dimming interior and exterior mirrors, LED foglights, keyless entry and several other niceties. The Premium package offers upgraded navigation, heated front seats and a heated steering wheel, a head-up display, and LED headlights with cornering lights. Other notable upgrades include 19-inch wheels, leather upholstery, a sport-tuned suspension, traffic-adaptive cruise control and a premium sound system.

Which 2020 X1 trim does Edmunds recommend?

You can consider getting the xDrive28i if you need the extra traction of all-wheel drive in wet-weather driving. Otherwise, save some cash and get the front-wheel-drive X1 sDrive28i. It provides similar performance in most scenarios and gets slightly better fuel economy, according to the EPA. We'd also add the Premium package for its heated seats and steering wheel plus LED headlights.
