Completely redesigned a year ago, the third-generation BMW X1 gains a new model for 2024. Joining the base xDrive28i (241 horsepower) is the sportier M35i xDrive, which boasts the German brand’s most potent four-cylinder engine ever (312 horsepower) and sharper styling. There are no immediate plans to bring the fully electric iX1 to Canada, in case you were wondering. Driving dynamics are particularly impressive for a small luxury crossover.
Pros
- Agility in the city
- Well adapted and efficient mechanics
- Touchscreen responsiveness
Cons
- Lots of apps (multimedia system)
- Some inferior quality plastics
- Slightly more upright driving position
