The most awaited BMW of the year, the X1 is coming to a BMW dealership near you next week. Come December 23 and BMW India will launch its cheapest Indian offering so far. Pricing for the BMW X1 is expected to be extremely competitive, starting at Rs 23 lakh, ex-showroom Mumbai.
The X1 will be offered in two trims – a basic two-wheel drive car called the Corporate Edition and the two-wheel drive Highline. The All-wheel drive xDrive may be an option but is not known for the moment. To be offered with a 1995cc, four-cylinder diesel engine, the X1 20d will produce about 176 bhp of peak power and an equally impressive 35.5 kgm of peak torque, the X1 is bound to become one of the quickest in its segment. Mated to a six-speed automatic, this 2.0-litre diesel motor should have good driveability in town and on the highway as we've seen with the 320d. The Corporate Edition will also be offered with a 2.0-litre petrol option, producing around 160 bhp – the same as the one found on the 320i.
