BMW X1 review - can Munich's smallest SUV compete with rivals? - Interior and tech

BMW’s X1 is a sharp-driving junior SUV

Evo rating
RRP
from £24,230
  • Drives better than its rivals, less money than an X3, cabin quality
  • Poor economy from petrol engine, some might find ride too stiff

Interior and Tech 

The X1 benefits from BMW’s class-leading interior tech, meaning you get iDrive, Bluetooth and the option to spec a bigger screen and ‘professional’ navigation.

Fit and finish is excellent, while the revised switchgear and improved materials make the X1 feel more premium than its predecessor. It’s more than in-line with the competition too for quality and finish.
