Fuel Type
Variant

The 2026 BMW X1 is a top-tier subcompact luxury SUV for shoppers who want premium design, sporty performance, and everyday practicality in a city-friendly size—making it a strong rival to the Audi Q3, Mercedes-Benz GLA, and Volvo XC40. In the U.S., the X1 lineup centers on the X1 xDrive28i and the performance-focused X1 M35i, both with standard BMW xDrive all-wheel drive and a turbocharged 4-cylinder paired with a quick-shifting 7-speed dual-clutch transmission; the xDrive28i makes 241 hp, while the M35i steps up to 312 hp for quicker acceleration and a more aggressive sport-tuned feel.  The 2026 X1 also stays commuter-friendly with EPA-estimated 25 city / 34 highway / 28 combined mpg for the xDrive28i, plus a modern cabin centered around BMW’s curved display and tech-forward features that help it stand out as a refined, fun-to-drive AWD luxury crossover for daily driving and weekend trips.
