The third-generation BMW X1, a tiny luxury SUV that has been a fan favourite among automotive aficionados for more than ten years, is returning with a bang. The 2023 BMW X1, which goes on sale on January 28 in India, is expected to revolutionise its market thanks to its svelte appearance, cutting-edge technology, and potent engine choices. With reservations currently available for a low price of Rs. 50,000, interest in this SUV is at an all-time high.

For the new BMW X1, clients in India may select between a petrol (sDrive 18i) or a diesel (sDrive 18d) engine. The 2.0 litre, four cylinder diesel engine provides 150 horsepower and 360 Nm of torque, compared to the 1.5 litre, three cylinder gasoline engine's 136 horsepower and 230 Nm. A 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox coupled to both engines transmits power to the front wheels.
