  • Powered by a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine with 154bhp

In terms of styling, the X1 LWB retains the overall design of the standard model. However, it gets a chrome windowline, silver inserts on the door sills and rear bumper, along with 18-inch alloy wheels. The SUV continues with the same LED headlamps and tail lamps as the standard X1.
BMW offers the X1 LWB in four colour options - Mineral White, Carbon Black, Night Dusk Blue and Skyscraper Grey.

Inside, the BMW X1 LWB gets a modern cabin with a focus on comfort and practicality. The front occupants get multi-way electrically adjustable Sport Seats, while the elevated seating position offers a clear view of the road ahead.
The rear seats also get extended cushioning by 15mm and additional bolstering for improved comfort on longer journeys. For added relaxation, the rear seats can be reclined by up to 28.5 degrees, making the X1 LWB more suitable for buyers who frequently travel with rear-seat passengers.
The X1 LWB also gets a vertically stacked wireless charger with a holder for convenient smartphone charging. For entertainment, it is equipped with a Harman Kardon sound system with 12 speakers and a 205W output. Another key highlight is the Panorama sunroof, which covers around 9 square feet and is claimed to be the largest in the segment.
