No changes of note for 2025.

Two 2L turbo fours, the 28i and the M35i, are offered. The 28i produces 241 horsepower. The M35i is rated at 312 horsepower. Power reaches all wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automated manual transmission. Active safety equipment includes a forward collision warning, including for cyclists and pedestrians, autonomous emergency braking and blind spot monitors that include a safe exit feature. The exterior of the X1 is fronted by a gigantic version of the BMW twin-kidney grille motif. The grille is supplanted by a large air intake which itself is flanked by smaller piercings in the front fascia. The rest of the car is artless and generally unattractive. Inside, the driver faces a shallow but wide computer tablet with vehicle information in front of the driver and infotainment data over the centre console. The infotainment and climate controls are via a touch screen, which is never a suitable way to do things in a car on the move. The rest of the cabin is very interesting, relying on shapes rather than applied ornament to make for a visually calm cabin. With very similar dimensions to its predecessor, cabin space is reasonable for the size of the car.

The mainstream 28i is sold in a single trim that offers a variety of option packages. A lane keep assist system is part of the advanced driver assistance package. The Premium Essential package adds a panoramic sunroof and a heated steering wheel. The Premium Enhanced upgrade includes a 360 degree camera system and a Harman-Kardon audio system. Leather seating is not available, even as an option. The 35i model is priced over $10,000 more than the 28i. Most metallic paint colours command a $900 fee but Storm Bay gray is priced at $1500 and Frozen Pure Grey costing a stout $6000.

Below average predicted reliability. Engine and electrical problems are among the expected weak points. Complimentary u0022scheduledu0022 maintenance for the first four years or 80,000 km. High servicing costs after the warranty expires. The APA recommends oil changes every six months or 8000 kilometers even if the dealer charges you for them outside the complimentary service plan. Four year/80,000 warranty but no additional powertrain warranty after that. Leasing is a way to enjoy the car and hand it back before there are any major problems. A BMW of Canada extended warranty is recommended if you plan to keep your X1 past the four year/80,000 kilometer warranty.
