It's priced from $61,800 RRP, which is before on-road costs, so the figure you pay on the road will be higher. BMW quotes fuel use of 6.5L/100km combined, the boot holds 540 litres with the rear seats up and 1,600 litres folded, and it can tow 1,700kg braked. It's not quick, with a claimed 0-100km/h time of 9 seconds, so it suits buyers who want a practical, easy-going family SUV more than anything sporty.
Configure the sDrive18iThe 2026 BMW X1 xDrive20i is a petrol SUV with 5 seats, an automatic gearbox and all-wheel drive.
