Already took delivery of mine. Didn't care for the Volvo, not a fan of Mercedes, and the Lexus is less value for the price. This X1 has an amazing amount of features for the price.
One of the best review and I have watched nearly 30+ BMW X1 videos. However, it would have been great if you had covered a little more ride quality, ambient noise, handling and tech that helps with driving (the premium package, none of the videos covered that, LKA, auto-drive.....). As it's BMW, "the ultimate driving experience", it would have been great to have seen you cover this. But, overall a Great video! Cheers
Two minor corrections for the US market. The 19" wheels are an available option on the M Sport, a unique 18" is still standard. And the heated seats/steering wheel are not included in the Premium Package, they are a completely stand alone option. You can also add the disable start stop as a shortcut in the swipe down menu, though it really only saves you maybe one or two steps. Otherwise great review, I appreciate the effort you took to point out a lot of the details that a lot of other channels don't cover!
Hey,how much is the cost of heated sits and steering wheel as an extra option? And the lights near the screen that are changing colour,how much is this aswell as an extra?
What's the reason behind a lot of people turning off the Auto start/stop button? does it like damage the engine? I just bought the new 2023 x1 as my first car so I don't know much about it.
It causes a hesitation at a stoplight, also shuts off the heating/cooling of the interior until the the temperature inside the cabin changes enough for it to for the motor back on, and stopped on a hill the hesitation is absolutely horrible. Will be the first thing I code out as soon as it is possible.
Thanks for this - nice review. Voice commands were not mentioned, but work quite well in the new X1. So you don't need to reach for the distant touchscreen that often.
I feel like you should just get used to the auto start-stop. Helps save gas. The real change they need to make is easier cycling though the modes so you can change to eco mode or power more easily.
Removing the iDrive controller was a mistake. The taillights were better in the previous version. Does the new X1 even have front fog lights? I’m upgrading my 25e in 24 months, hoping they offer a version with iDrive controller by then.
I love it how people complain about pollution and at the same time they the turn off the start-stop system. the new engines that are also mild hybrid have absolutely no need for having the start-stop turned off, the battery can instantly give you plenty or torque. great review though!
It almost makes you wonder why they need an X3? I know X3 is rear wheel drive but can any company afford two SUVs of same size that looks same to majority?
I ordered my BMW X1 Sdrive20i Xline just before Xmas (2022). Estimated delivery-time given by the system of the dealer : ... January ... 2024 ! (I am living in Belgium). !? Nice video. It's a pitty you did not shortly touch the possibility of "voice command". 😇
@@tgchris2222 Produced in Regensburg (Germany). Seems deliveries outside Europe get priority. I could not get production nr. so far (as chassis nr. is not known yet). If I am lucky delivery could be expected October-November according to the dealer. 🙄😏
Good review. Too bad you had the X-line. Kind of is a letdown when the M Sport exterior and interior are so excellent. It basically a shrunk iX interior. Considering that a gutless RAV 4 with plastic seats costs $42,000 and a CRV is similar, there is really no question. Plus, BMW pays for your service and 50/4 warranty. I just dont understand why you would even buy one of those junk, expensive Cute-Utes.
3 separate button push/steps to shut off the engine wearing ASS every time you drive?! Open viewable storage area under the armrest - have you been to an American city lately?! And we all stare at digital screens all day for work/on phones, do we really have to do it in our cars now too?
That leather looking material really doesn’t look like leather. I am not really liking all this digital interior. Good luck operating it on the move. What a fail.
It actually feels very nice and requires less maintenance than leather. And so far, operating the controls in the car hasn’t been much of an issue, though I do miss the iDrive controller just a little bit. Other markets such as the UK do get leather as an option, but unfortunately the US misses out on a few things, (hybrid and electric powertrains, leather, adaptive headlights, retractable tow hitch, amber rear turn signals, and cloth seats)
So you’d rather kill a cow? Do you also want your shampoo tested on animals? Sensatec is a great, cruelty-free, sustainable material that breathes and provides superior comfort. I’m hoping that when I have to turn in my X1 lease in a couple years that they reintroduce a few physical buttons or at least the iDrive controller.
Would you consider buying the 2023 BMW X1 over the competition? Let me know and thanks for watching!
I would definitely choose this over something like the Lexus NX
@@MilesPerHr oh def yes! This thing is so impressive now!
Yes👍

Kudos: very good review. Was there an issue with WOT from stop to start? I think thats one of the issues ive seen on other reviews.

I ordered mine and now just waiting. Got the M option!
So impressed with the X1! Love the redesign too.
Same! This thing is so awesome

Mine is at the port in Germany :) Cant wait to put my hands on it.
Great color and super SUV ❤
Great review as always. Glad to see BMW doing good things!
Yup let's hope they keep doing it. Thanks for watching 🙌
One of the best and most thorough reviews. Thanks!
appreciate that so much! Thanks for watching!

they will not bring the iDrive back, that's for sure. Its the only negative on this new model.
I love it how people complain about pollution and at the same time they the turn off the start-stop system. the new engines that are also mild hybrid have absolutely no need for having the start-stop turned off, the battery can instantly give you plenty or torque. great review though!
Thanks for watching! Appreciate you 🙌 I just personally can't stand the Auto stop start. It just annoys me
@@omardrives because exactly when you want power you are not getting it. That’s what mild hybrids help you with. Like this car
@@Andrei-kh6kr except in the US it’s not a mild hybrid at all, purely gasoline ICE.
@@ryanohara8103 yeah I see. Tough luck. Actually I notice we don’t even get this engine in Europe….yet
How long to get one in US if ordered?
What about reliability on bmw? These are reliable when compared to volvo or audi or lexus which is best…
Does heated steering wheel and heated seats comes in premium package or 500$ extra?
it is a $550 option for those two items in the US (I know it's stupid as it shows as part of the premium package WHEN IT IS NOT).
Excellent review.
Thank you! Appreciate you watching 🙌
@@omardrives yes, I ordered one Msport, Storm bay metallic with red and black interiors, is in production now. It will take like 2 more months.
Love this new X1. It’s like a whole generation moved forward from its competition.
Definitely agree!
One of my dream cars.
In five years, before I was 32, I had x1 to x4 or z4
I'm trying to buy it.
Use the BMW assistant! You can do the climate control hands free
True true
It almost makes you wonder why they need an X3? I know X3 is rear wheel drive but can any company afford two SUVs of same size that looks same to majority?
X3 is actually pretty big now. Gives me the old X5 vibes
BMW X1 or kia telluride ? 🧐

@@herwigvercauteren2899 and you have a year wait? That’s ridiculous.
@@tgchris2222 yes, one year waiting. In the best case scenario 9 months. It is OK for me as I still have my old car.
You can get leather. It is called Vernasca Leather. It gives all the same colour options in the fake leather
I love the new x1❤ however, i still secretly hope they will bring back the 3 touring.
Would like to see this with some electric motor assist for extra torque. Looks great overall, baby X5.
stunning ❤
I like the exterior and interior of this car. Give me IX1 in the States, and I will buy it.

Best BMW for the money 💰.
No button for HVAC, no i-drive wheel. SMH
Maybe I get one x1 or x2
Wrong! 7 speed dct is worse than 8 speed AT
Budget BMW at 60k USD with good specs... :-O
Volvo is not a luxury/premium car brand. It is a mid tier brand similar to Mazda.
Really good car but I’d still pick the Mercedes 😅
Mama vera

@@omardrivesthis clown has no idea what he’s talking about. The Kia X1 doesn’t compare. Guy probably thinks Olive Garden is real Italian.

I feel ya. The X1 doesn't get leather at any trim. It's all the sensatec vegan leather material

And so far, operating the controls in the car hasn’t been much of an issue, though I do miss the iDrive controller just a little bit. Other markets such as the UK do get leather as an option, but unfortunately the US misses out on a few things, (hybrid and electric powertrains, leather, adaptive headlights, retractable tow hitch, amber rear turn signals, and cloth seats)
Leather is available in all other markets which is a bit odd.
So you’d rather kill a cow? Do you also want your shampoo tested on animals?
Sensatec is a great, cruelty-free, sustainable material that breathes and provides superior comfort.
