In Q1 2022, BMW X-series vehicles represented almost 50% of total sales in the US with X1/X2 models on par with X3/X4 sales.

Nice.

Styling-wise, I'd say it looks surprisingly GREAT. Especially in orange:

We've loved our 2016 X1 so this may be an easy upgrade when the time comes.

Okay, one can make the case for "flared nostrils" on SUV's; but, coupes & sedans? C'mon BMW!

Send us wagons plz.

Thanks!

One thing that bothers me about the functionless grille is the depth of the "back plastic." I don't know what it's called, but it's too shallow. It just looks cheap.

Am I the only one seeing similarities here 🤔

I bought my wife a ‘22 XC60 R Design and what a car…excellent all around.

Couldn't agree more. The wide angle lens in the video doesn't help to accentuate the "facelift" aspects of the front end either.

Can't say that I'm as excited as I was initially after the reveal after seeing this.

They both look excellent.

Blue Angel · 06-07-2022, 08:57 PM

Is this actually a new platform, or just a facelift? Still share Mini guts?

XC60 isn't in the same class. X1 is brand new so I wouldn't bet the xc60 is better but it is a great little SUV.

Made in China?

Had known a few people that abandoned newly acquired Volvos over teething quality problems.

Good question, I was wondering that myself. It appears it is still using the exact same UKL2 platform from the prior X1 F48 generation and also shared with the MINI Countryman and Clubman among other BMW products.

Can anyone confirm?

BobBMWX3 · 06-08-2022, 11:27 AM

Would the X1 not compare to the XC40...We have a X3 and a XC60. They are about the same size and seem to be in the same class. Comparing a X1 to a XC60...not much comparison there, the Volvo is a better model. Comparing X1 to a XC40...then we start to get into things.

On the X1...The looks are definitely improved in my opinion. I thought earlier models were very plain. A nice entry model look for this version.

JasonX4MComp · 06-08-2022, 01:51 PM

Can't wait to get these in. Looks great and think its going to be a big seller

heavyD^2 · 06-08-2022, 02:30 PM

Interior looks miles better. That current gen interior has been a tough sell for a few years now with its decade old BMW interior styling cues.
