BMW iX1 (2023-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Very classy interior and infotainment system	Not as versatile as some rivals
Good to drive	An expensive option in the class
Efficiency is pretty good	Dimensions aren't as compact as they once were

Quick Summary

The BMW iX1 (2023-present) is BMW's smallest and most affordable electric SUV, sharing its modular platform with the 2 Series Active Tourer. Significantly larger than its predecessor, it now measures 4.5 metres, positioning it as a mid-sized family SUV comparable to the Volkswagen Tiguan. Initially launched as the xDrive30 with 308bhp and a 272-mile WLTP range, a cheaper eDrive20 front-wheel-drive version was later introduced, offering up to 293 miles of range from the same 64.7kWh battery. It boasts a very classy interior, a 490-litre boot, and comfortable rear seating, though some rivals offer even more rear passenger space.

The iX1 offers a smooth and confident driving experience, with the xDrive30 providing serious acceleration and a 'Boost' mode. The eDrive20 is also eager and responsive. Adaptive regenerative braking allows for effective one-pedal driving, while adaptive suspension ensures a calm and comfortable ride on most trims. Running costs are competitive for a premium EV, especially with smart home charging. Standard equipment is strong, even on entry-level models, featuring a striking curved screen with a 10.7-inch touchscreen and 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, though some desirable features like adaptive cruise control are optional.

Best for: Drivers seeking a premium electric SUV, buyers prioritising a classy interior and advanced infotainment, families needing a practical and comfortable car, and those looking for competitive running costs for an EV.

Not ideal for: Buyers on a strict budget, those who need the absolute largest rear passenger space compared to some rivals, enthusiasts expecting the most engaging driving dynamics from a BMW, or those who want adaptive cruise control or wireless phone charging as standard on all trims.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the iX1 if: You're seeking a premium electric SUV with a classy interior and advanced infotainment, a practical and comfortable family car, or competitive running costs for an EV.

Consider alternatives if: You're on a strict budget, need the absolute largest rear passenger space, prioritise the most engaging driving dynamics, or require adaptive cruise control/wireless phone charging as standard on all trims.

Competitive Position: The BMW iX1 (2023-present) stands out for its very classy interior, excellent infotainment system, and sophisticated driving experience within the premium electric SUV segment. While it faces strong competition from rivals offering more interior space or longer range at potentially lower prices, its premium badge appeal, strong build quality, and competitive running costs make it a compelling choice for those prioritising luxury and technology in an EV.
