BMW X1 2013

 ABOUT:

The BMW X1 is a compact crossover SUV manufactured by BMW, and marketed worldwide in rear-wheel (sDrive) and all-wheel-drive (xDrive) configurations. Production followed the debut of a concept version at the 2008 Paris Motor Show. with series manufacture beginning at the BMW Leipzig plant in October 2009 — followed by production in Chennai, India (from knock-down kits (CDK)), Shenyang, China, (by BMW-Brilliance Automotive Ltd) and Kaliningrad, Russia (CDK,with local partner Avtotor).
New BMW X1 was launched at the end of year in December 2010. Three variants viz. X1 sDrive 18i, X1 sDrive 20d and X1 sDrive 20d Exclusive are launched in as many as ten vibrant colours. These sDrive cars in India are not offered with all wheel drive systems and have a modest 2-liter diesel and petrol engines. Attractively priced between 22.4 lacs to 30.4 lacs, the cars are going to divert a major share of market in BMW's favor.
The X1 shares a similar platform with the BMW X3, based on the platform of the BMW 3 Series (E91) Touring (wagon). The EPA classifies the vehicle under the Midsize Cars category.
The X1 introduced BMW's N20 engine in its xDrive28i model. The X1 is slightly smaller and more affordable than the X3.
The design tweaks to the X1 facelift include revised headlamp console, new bumper, modified front grille and sleeker ORVMs. On the inside, there are hardly any changes expect new colour tones, bit of chrome, new upholstery and few additions to the trim options.
The X1 offers a 420 litre cargo volume, which can increase up to 1350 litres of storage space with the seats folded. For comparison, the 3-Series Touring (E91) has 460 and the X3 (E83) has 480 litres. The backrest in the rear is adjustable in 11 steps and can be divided in the ratio 40:20:40. The vehicle offers adaptive cruise control, seating positions with modestly raised H-point seating (marketed as Semi Command Sitting position) and Performance Control.
The USA market gets the BMW N20B20 2.0-liter turbo inline-4, in RWD sDrive and AWD xDrive configurations, as well as the BMW N55B30 TwinPower turbo inline-6 from the X3 xDrive35i. BMW will start selling the X1 in the American market in late 2012 as a 2013 model, but BMW Canada started selling the X1 in early 2011 as a 2012 model. The Indian market is currently getting the sdrive18i (4 cyl petrol), sdrive20d and sdrive20d (highline) (4 cyl diesels). The three variants have an 8-speed automatic transmission. No manual transmission option is available now.
