Best in Class for 2023

2023 BMW X1 xDrive28i 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 7AM)

Best all around pick in its class when looking at both the luxury and mainstream competition. Pros: Driving dynamics - Has more than enough power and is surefooted in corners. Braking is superb and has good braking feel. Comfort - Very quiet ride for its class and delivers a very supple ride. M sport seats provide ample lateral support though it is a bit hard to get in and out of due to the high bolsters. Fuel economy - Better than expected for the performance this car delivers. Build quality - Everything is well put together with high quality materials. Zero creaks, rattles, or noticeable panel gaps. Cons: Auto start/stop function - Can only be disabled through the touch screen menu and defaults to "ON" every time the car starts. Produces significant lag when at a stop and must be finessed in order to get the car to take off smoothly. Infotainment - Lack of physical switches and removal of rotary knob. iDrive8 feels like a downgrade from iDrive7. Steering feel - Feels highly assisted and lacks feedback. Overall this car is well worth the money, even when fully loaded at $50k.

Awful electronics and poor quality construction

We purposely invested in a BMW for its reputation for quality -- and we were sorely disappointed. The fancy display was trouble from the start; hard to navigate and operate, and cutting out the CarPlay connection at critical times. We reached our limit when the vehicle wouldn't start on a trip to Vermont; we had to have it jumped and wasted a day of our trip, losing hotel deposits and time. The repairs involved replacing parts in the system that were defective -- and would have cost $2,000 if not under warranty. This was not the experience we signed up for, so we sold the car after less than a year of use.

2023 X1 broken hearted

The 2023 X1 is my sixth BMW and my 4th X1, I turned in my 2020 and picked up the 23 in October, the car was riding perfect then about a week ago, I started hearing banging when I put on the brakes and when I turned left it got louder. My car has been at the dealership since Tuesday and they still don't know why, they opened a case with BMW to see if any other vehicle had the same issues. They called today and told me to come and pick up the car that BMW said this is the way all new X1's perform. I told them that this is unacceptable the car ran perfect for over 5 months and now this happens and I have to accept it. No, I won't the service department is contacting upper management to see what they can do. They even told me that they took another vehicle just like mine for a ride and the same thing happened. I wanted to know if anyone else's vehicle is doing the same thing. They are supposed to call me back tomorrow. Thank You for listening

I have to say that I downgraded to this vehicle from the 2019 X1. The 2019 was a refined piece of machinery, but I am struggling to appreciate the 2023 the same way. The auto-park feature hit the curb the other day, I am just happy it was not another car. The walk-away lock (and approach unlock) works - sometimes. The sport seats have negative lumbar support, and unless you purchased "active seats" you are out of options. I am about to duct tape support where I need it. Can't just crank up the heat with a spin of a button - there is no button any more. You need to tap tap tap tap a + button which is small enough that while driving, your finger drifts off and then you touch something else on the screen. Many actions have a latency, even the engine start button. You push.... then, after a small delay, it starts. You floor it, and after a small delay, it will downshift. You are unloading groceries, the hatch is open, you walk away, the car locks. You come to get more bags from the car, the car unlocks. The other day, the engine was off, my wife was sitting in the drivers seat with her keys inside. I walked away, the car locked, mirrors folded... She was just going to start the car and drive away. Oh... and a street that has been there for many years near our house apparently does not exist in the navigation system. It did exist on the 2019's nav. I sincerely regret upgrading.

Missing my 2018 x1 - Disappointing Remodel

I loved my 2018 x1 but needed to replace it due to high mileage. I thought the 2023 would be even better. Unfortunately, it's not. The car hesitates when speeding up. This is NOT safe. The lack of the middle console dial and knobs is annoying. Why get rid of them? That dial was such a great feature. Now you are forced to take your eyes off the road to change the temp or turn the station. Sure, you can use the voice assist but it is slow and unreliable. The other thing that annoys me is that you have to put it in sport mode every time you start the car to disable auto shut-off (car turns off at lights are when not in motion). Sports mode turns the car into a gas guzzler which defeats the purpose of even having an auto shut off feature. The former x1 was petite but had lots of storage areas. Now the car is wider (bulkier) and no longer has the discreet necessary storage areas. Yesterday there was a system update which disabled my blue tooth and my phone won't connect.

Mechanically flawless elcectronically inept

I have had this suv for 5 months. I traded a Tesla Y since highway commutes were challenging with supercharger availability. The vehicle with M sport is mechanically flawless and highway mileage is excellent at 34-36 mpg. The electronics are inept and I have owned 10 prior BMW and Audis. As cars rely more on electronics to control all car functions they have to be more integrated and functional. BMW has always had problems with their electronics but this is the worst. Cons: Some examples: The stop start feature has always been annoying no less with this version. The electronics cannot hold a personal profile, wireless locks work intermittently, continually drops Sirius profiles/memory and the phone charger feature is not functional. When at BMW service it is performing to "specs." It will not charge an Apple iPhone 15 pro at all without a case. It will charge a Samsung at a rate of 1% in 8 minutes=specs. Compared to Tesla electronics I would give it a 4/10. Love driving the car but living with it is disappointing for the price point. BMW should do better by now or outsource their electronics.

X1 ‘23 Still no remedy for IBS/DSC systems

Update Oct 24: I contacted BMW by letter and their rep responded with a phone call. I explained my utter disappointment at the glacial pace of their Recalls remedies and the virtually non existent Customer Service at all levels. The rep had no answers and was absolutely no help. I am done with the brand. I want to know my vehicle is reasonably safe. I have doubts about this one. Update: X1 '23 Recall notice was issued for the Integrated Braking System (IBS) Feb. 2024. It is mid April and there is no remedy and no service call. 😢 The fuel door would not open when I went to get gas and I've read online others have had similar problem. Fortunately. I had enough gas to travel a long distance, because the local BMW Service where I was, said it would take two days to get the part for the repair and that was the case. TWO DAYS. (Previous review)...it is quite nice. I was looking at more cargo, but BMW was making offers for my very low mileage 2020 2 Gran Coupe and offered the same lease on a new 2023, but as everyone knows, it’s all about supply and there weren’t any at my dealer. My salesperson had a notion, it was the X1 they were using as a demo, 41 miles, 2 months old. From the moment I got in, the upgrade in quality reflected in the seats was palpable. Love the engine, don’t love the Dual clutch. The start/stop is annoying and deactivating it each time you drive is worse. I am appalled at the ConnectedDrive. This program is the worst of the worst. I urge you all to read carefully the terms and conditions before clicking thru. You may have purchased heat capable seats, but you may have to subscribe to BMWs service in order to heat them. It is happening in Australia now! That is only the beginning. I may be parting ways with them if they push this anti-customer service down our throats. But I love the X1. Smooth drive, sporty, and luxurious….no, really this time.

The car is agreeable to drive. The uptake from a stop involves some hesitation, as noted in most reviews. Its ability to remember and back the car out of the garage by itself is something I really like because my garage is narrow. The voice commands for navigation aren’t great. Neither is the map display. And the menu system for setting up options is too complicated. The front camera does not automatically turn on in driving head first into a space— you have to turn it on yourself. Rear cross traffic safety warning is just a subtle thunk, thunk, thunk, and car has to be in reverse. My Toyota is much louder, has a visual and audio warning, and is more aware. Ride is reasonably quiet and pretty good on bumps with my 18” wheels. On highway at a pretty steady 75mph get 36mpg. But in suburban driving, which is far from full of traffic lights, get about 22mpg.

Poor Reliability, Even Worse BMW Customer Service

California Driver, 04/27/2025
2023 BMW X1 xDrive28i 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 7AM)
6 of 6 people found this review helpful

Took delivery December 2023; Sold the BMW X1 April 2025 due to terrible reliability, dealerships not fixing the car correctly and BMW Corporate being no help. In the first year, the car was back at the dealership 5 times for a total of 48 days. And chronic electronic malfunctions were *never fixed* in spite of the fact that I provided 101 photos and videos of various system malfunctions, they repeatedly told me they couldn't replicate some of the problem so they refused to replace the computer. For good measure, I brought the car to a 2nd dealer for one of those visits, reached out to BMW Customer Service and filed a Lemon Law Buy Back Appeal. BMW refused to help. Each BMW representative I worked with was more inept than the one before. Problems included: -Chronic loss of Apple Car Play connection with no ability to reconnect (literally hundreds of times and the iPhone 15 Pro Max works fine on our other vehicles) -Dash board screen malfunctions, error messages, and spontaneous menus popping up without prompt that caused temporary loss of use of maps, radio functions, climate control, etc. -Air Bag Malfunction Warning Light (a software module was replaced for that) -Intermittent loss of safety systems: collision mitigation, rear traffic alert, blind spot monitoring, automatic braking for no diagnosable reason. -Power seat memory loss intermittently -Doors not locking or folding mirrors intermittently -5 Braking System Recalls that took 6+ months to get fixed (this goes against NHTSA Guidelines)* -Major Transmission Recall that took 7 months to get fixed (also against NHTSA Guidelines)* I made it abundantly clear that if the car was not fixed or replaced, that they would be losing a repeat customer. Clearly BMW doesn't value my business. This was my 2nd and last BMW.

Was looking for a small SUV to replace an Audi Q5 to use around town. I drive an M5 and this is for my wife who loves it. It feels way more expensive then it’s fully optioned price if $49k. M Sport package is a game changer if you want something that is more BMW traditional then mainstream modern BMW. Uses tried and true drivetrain and is sharp in person. Highly recommended.

This is my 1st BMW (and 2nd German car -- the last was a Jetta) and will be my last. From the start, there have been issues, especially with the touchscreen; it's cumbersome and not even remotely user-friendly. There is no easy way to toggle from app to app without pressing buttons four+ times, which is quite annoying with the most basic features such as heating and cooling. Nothing is intuitive even though they claim it to be. With Sirius XM, you cannot save or delete stations and the "handy" next button near the gear shift only scrolls through each station, because (again) it won't let you save favorites. I have sat with two tech people for two hours each and they said, "I don't know why that is happening." Apparently that is considered good customer service. Additionally, some random Pandora stations are popping up, which I have never saved in my iPhone and cannot be deleted from my favorites screen(!!), which makes zero sense. Their response? "We don't know why that is happening." Again, terrific help. As another person noted, there is a lag with everything, whether turning the car on, accelerating, changing radio stations, rolling down the windows, and so forth. And to top this all off, the HomeLink garage function does not work and I have tried everything from watching YouTube videos, reading the owner's manual, and talking with a garage door person. It does nothing but blink that yellow/orange color and programs nothing. Even the remote start function is lousy as it doesn't let you set a predetermined temperature; it only acknowledges the setting for when you last shut off the car. Even my past two Hyundai's had programmable temperature choices with the remote start; how can a BMW not make that improvement? The car beeps with practically every movement except for the blindspot detection; it only flashes on the side mirror. How can that be called a safety feature and NOT have a warning sound? My Nissan's and Hyundai's had that functionality and a BMW doesn't? Last but not least, there is practically no interior storage (just look inside the center console if you want to get a good laugh). Overall car this is an embarrassment to the brand. Run, don't walk, from buying this car.

After owning 9 different BMW's, this is by far the worst car I have ever owned. The new IDrive 9 does not work. Despite the new touch screen being very dangerous, most of the system is poorly laid out and difficult to use. It's really an IT nightmare. Nice looking car that has been in the shop more than it's been in my garage. Suggest that market this as the Ultimate Driving Flop!

Wanted to get back to leasing but also wanted another BMW. This car replaced my 2015 BMW 328i (which I loved!). Loved the redesign job on this car both on the outside and inside. Comes extremely well equipped for the price- I only added the convenience package to mine. It’s much roomier than I expected and the engine and power are as expected from BMW. Definitely glad I made the switch.

Where'd all the money go exactly?

I had the displeasure of being "upgraded" to a base 2024 X1 while on a 2-week vacation to the Rockies, and all I can say is that it really made me appreciate my mid-spec Kia. The utter lack of luxury from this luxury-priced small SUV is simply staggering. It's been years since I've driven a BMW (a 3-series), but it's something I look back on fondly. That made my reentry into bimmer-land all the more shocking, as this thing is an embarrassment to Bavaria in every way, except perhaps its relatively planted/sporty feel on windy roads (plenty of those in Colorado). That being said, even that same confident sportiness is a double-edged sword in the X1, as the general ride quality suffers immensely for it; every minor bump, low speed or high, shudders through the suspension and into the well-bolstered-but-firm seats. Adding to the ride woes, the road noise is just abysmal -- I could even hear the sound difference passing over lane lines on the highway... Any bit of texture in the pavement and it's a sea of white noise in the cabin. Only good news there is that it covers up the lackluster soundsystem, which is mostly muddy/indistinct base, followed by middling mids and missing highs. One could probably adjust the EQ, but it's honestly bad enough I didn't bother. The rest of the vehicle is a mix of disappointment if not outright dysfunction. As others have noted, the wireless CarPlay/Android Auto constantly cuts out (tested with both my Pixel and wife's iPhone), reconnects, then cuts out, and on and on -- usually just when you need to go through a series of turns. The climate controls work, but they're hidden several taps deep in an on-screen menu; I thought my Niro's capacitive buttons were annoying, but this takes the cake. Not that it matters too much, as the heat was annoying in its own right: either not warm enough to notice or set to "sauna" mode. Add in other "little" issues like sluggish downshifts from the transmission, an auto start/stop that jerkily shutters the vehicle back to life several seconds after depressing the throttle, and a host of other small problems gets you to a user experience that verges on utter vexation day-to-day. Which is to say nothing of baffling oddities like the driving modes: it starts out sane enough with basic "sport" and "efficient" modes, but as you scroll further you get into things like "digital art" or "expressive" modes. The former literally just changes the base menu touchscreen background to a BMW-curated "art" screensaver (which you'd hardly ever see, except the CarPlay disconnects constantly, so maybe you will...), the latter I'll let the BMW owners manual cover: "Mode for impressive visualization and lively ambient lighting effects in the vehicle interior." Literally changes the LED strips -- that's it. Foolishly, I was hoping to find a "comfort" mode to soften the ride, but that's way more luxury than you can expect for $45K on a BMW. Finally, the lack of features for the money. I was astonished to learn that the vehicle I was driving listed at over $42K, no options checked. I wasn't expecting good value or anything with a BMW, but when I was test driving Toyotas, Hondas, and Kias this past year, nothing I sat in that broke $30K was devoid of adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, or the real luxuries, like adjustable lumbar support... The X1 **can** have any/all of those things, but only with a bevy of truly overpriced options checked ($250 for adjustable lumbar support -- not a joke). Good news is you get mirrors with little lamps that project the BMW log onto the ground by your feet (would love to know how much one of those costs to replace when someone smacks it on the street). Other "good" things are the auto lock/unlock when you have the key, and you know, when it works (often it doesn't). Mileage is decent for what it as (I average 30mpg), but given that it costs well more than a well-spec'd RAV4 Hybrid in AWD, it's still not impressive by any means. The standard heated seats and steering wheel are nice, but also sadly hidden behind the same annoying touchscreen interface as the climate control. Cargo space is "okay," but ultimately held less bags than the Camry I usually go with. It's just a truly underwhelming vehicle at an awful price. I hope it at least proves to be reliable for those who buy it...

Unlike the previous iterations of the X1, the totally redesigned ‘23 model is no longer the poor neglected step-child of the family. The finishes, appointments,and design make it worthy of the BMW badge. Once you get used to the idrive8, you’ll appreciate how awesome it truly is. Other than the needlessly awkward auto stop/start override , I really have no complaints at all. I absolutely love it! It’s the most fun you can have behind the wheel without going to a drive-in movie with a really hot date.

2023 X1

I ordered my 2023 X1 back in the end of January and it finally showed up June 28th. It is fully loaded without the M package including the factory trailer hitch. I really enjoy the car but around 1000 miles it developed a nasty rattle coming from the passenger side but haven't taken it in yet to have it looked at. I also haven an annoying buzz in my left ear that seems to be coming from the drivers side grab handle. I created a short cut for the engine start/stop so I can just give a quick swipe down to deactivate it. I have got great mileage on the one long road trip I went on. Pure freeway on the way up to the Canadian border got 43mpg on the computer and took a more meandering route back and filled up got 38mpg overall, the actual mileage is very close to what the computer shows. I really enjoy the car and it is my first BMW. I just need to get it in to the dealer to hopefully solve those couple annoyances.

My 4th Bmw (3 series, 5series, 2017 X1) and most disappointing. Traded prior X1 due to high milage. Find this new one more powerful but drives extremely light on the road, bounces around on the highway and just doesn’t seem to have the “BMW planted on the road” feel that my prior ones did. And auto start/stop very rough restarting engine from a stop so that I now turn it off on every drive. Have always loved the way BMWs drive, this one just doesn’t have that BMW quality drive and feel which is the reason I buy a BMW

I like many features, but the nr#1 reason for me was heated seats and steering wheel - disappointment! X1 is not able to preheat your seats and steering wheel before the drive. The remote starter is working only on engine and cabin, but I'm still sitting down on frozen seat. The seat wormer works when I sit down and manually start the engine. Some of the modes can not be set as favorite, I have to select t every time I start the car. The same with automatic engine shut off during the stop, I have to turn it off every ride - unless you using sports mode. Dissatisfied! That's not what was promised during the purchase.

I actually average over 30 MPG. It's smooth and quiet. Have over 9000 miles now and other than an oil change, there have been no issues. The tech is a bit confusing and could certainly be more intuitive in terms of sound, Sirius and using all of the apps. All in all, I'd buy again

Great car for commuting, around town and short trips. Fun to drive and technology was surprisingly easy to learn. Third BMW and exceptionally happy with car.

We like the height of entry, as seniors we tried many models for ease of entry and exit. We have friends who always complain of the difficulty of their cars. Love the brakes, steering, ride, we use our X5 for distance travel but may take this on shorter trips.

Traded my 2021 X3, interior was a tad dated. This new SUV is packed with tech, fun to drive, massage seats are cool, great cargo space, I got the upgraded stereo which is solid. Only issue is my Spotify connection seems to be sporadic.

So far we love the ride of this car! It has all the bells and whistles which we weren’t originally going to get with a previous car. The ride is smooth!

This car has the ride comfort of a go-cart. Very stiff and rough with little discernible suspension. It is fun to drive if you can put up with the aforementioned. I didn’t really notice this until I had the car for a month or so. I thought it was just the rough road. BMW cheaped out in several areas. It may seem trivial but not having a glove box light is ridiculous. The door handles probably wont last two years before loosening up to an annoyable degree. Would not buy again and am looking to sell now. Garbage really for a “BMW”.
