2023 BMW X1 xDrive28i Review

The lowest priced BMW and most people still cannot afford it.

My 2018 has 250 horsepower how did it get less and how is this a new engine.

This is their most reliable vehicle. Not liking the new wheels my old X1 were nicer.

Transmission killed the deal for me. I had a similar problem with my 2018 civic and it's downright dangerous to have the car not move from a stop immediately. The infotainment system kind of sucks because I am not using voice control. Otherwise I would probably have pulled the trigger.

Not liking how rental cars stand out more with the white permanent fleet sticker on the rear license plate. Makes them easier for thieves to spot, especially in SF.

Steven dwells on throttle response. I drive a 2023 X1 Xline with 18” wheels. I find that if you floor the accelerator from a stop the car gasps before launch. Sometimes that happens even without tramping on it, and it is disconcerting to get a lurch forward in tight spaces.

However, at this point I’ve learned how to handle the accelerator and be less aggressive. So this problem has evaporated. I would agree that training the driver instead of the car is undesirable, but experience will solve this problem for the most part.

In my country the car comes with gloos black in the edges not plastic like this one😊

is 3 cylender Engine underpower and deal breaker?

no way you can get 5.5 from 6.5 seconds. most likely there was an error. no manufacturer is so stupid as to undersell/udermine its products.

Good work

Very helpful video! Several questions for you...
1) Did you have to wait for your car after ordering?
2) If so, how long did it take to receive it?
3) Was it shipped directly from Germany to California, or to the East Coast and then trucked over to California?
4) Does the self parking feature come standard or an extra added option?
5) Can you show how this self parking feature work?

Not for me but good value for money
Great review again thanks

Good review. Thanx. What are the options on this car? The paint color, the leather seats, 18inch wheels, any more? Are the LED lights on this vehicle the option ones? I wonder how they compare with standard ones
