The arrival of the 2024 BMW X1 enhances the power, prestige, and performance of BMW’s luxury SUV lineup. This compact SUV is ideal for urban driving with a diminutive size that can easily squeeze into city parking spaces and an incredible fuel economy to save money at the pump. Take a look at the sophisticated standard features that come with the base X1 model. 

The base trim of the 2024 X1 is the xDrive28i, which is equipped with BMW’s sublime AWD system for outstanding handling in all weather conditions. The fantastic drivetrain is paired with a lightweight 2.0-liter in-line, four-cylinder engine that provides an output of 241 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. A seven-speed automated manual transmission is standard for this model. 


With this amount of torque, it should come as no surprise that the X1 base model follows BMW’s blazing performance standard. This compact SUV can reach 60 MPH in 6.2 seconds. This model has a center limited-slip differential that enhances the stability and control of the SUV when you turn tight corners. Hill Descent Control is another standard feature that works by automatically pumping the brakes when you drive downhill to slow your speed for easier handling. 

Exterior

This BMW comes with clever exterior convenience features, such as a power liftgate. With this liftgate, you can quickly access the cargo area to load groceries and sports gear, even when your hands are too full to open the trunk with the manual release. This model is equipped with rain-detecting windshield wipers that keep the front windshield clear of rain to maintain optimal road visibility even in heavy downpours. 


The xDrive28i keeps you safe on the road with driver-assistance technology like a blind-spot alert and collision warning system. The blind spot alert will emit a warning when a vehicle approaches your blind zone, so you know to hold your lane position until the vehicle passes. 

Interior

The base X1 can seat up to five passengers. This SUV has a flexible cargo capacity that maxes out at 57.2 cubic feet when the rear seats are collapsed. The cargo space when all seats are in the upright position is 25.7 cubic feet, which is generous enough to accommodate medium to large-sized luggage in the cargo area.


Some key technologies for this BMW model include voice recognition software and a navigation system with real-time traffic updates that help you avoid detours or slow traffic routes when you’re on the road. You can stream your favorite playlists, podcasts, and audiobooks with wireless Bluetooth technology, or use Bluetooth software to make hands-free phone calls. Satellite radio is also a standard feature. 


The X1 has an ultra-modern body style and a collection of advanced features that improve your daily driving experience. Learn about financing opportunities when you contact Zeigler BMW in Kalamazoo, MI.
