The X1 is the most affordable model in BMW’s line-up of SUVs, and the sDrive20i sits high in the range at $53,600, which is $8500 more than the sDrive18i entry grade car.
Despite the price difference the sDrive20i doesn’t come with a great deal more in terms of features than the sDrive18i. The standard equipment list includes LED cornering headlights, 18-inch alloy wheels, roof rails, a power tailgate, auto parking system, and front and rear parking sensors.
Inside, there’s a leather sports steering wheel, a 6.5-inch touchscreen with sat nav, reversing camera, six-speaker stereo, digital radio and floor mats. All of those are found on the sDrive18i. By stepping up to the 20i you’ll gain dual-zone climate control, a luggage net, a dimming rear view mirror and an ambient lighting package.
Really the benefit to buying a 20i is the more powerful engine - a four-cylinder turbo-petrol unit making 141kW/280Nm. Shifting gears is a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. BMW says the 0-100km/h ‘sprint’ takes 7.6 seconds.
The X1 scored the maximum five-star ANCAP rating when it was tested in 2015. While there’s lane departure and forward collision warning, the X1 doesn’t come with AEB or other advanced safety equipment such as blind spot warning and rear-cross traffic alert.
