The next-generation BMW X1 will be officially launched in India on January 28, 2023. Prices for the new SUV will be announced at the Joytown event, which will be held at the Manpho Convention Centre in Bangalore.

The next-gen X1 is based on the FAAR architecture. The SUV gets a few cosmetic tweaks on the outside. These include a larger kidney grille with slim LED headlamps and redesigned L-shaped LED daytime running lights, reworked bumpers and door handles; among others.

Inside, the X1 gets a curved screen that houses a 10.7-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster.

Globally, the new X1 is offered with petrol and diesel engine options combined with 48V mild-hybrid tech. Both powertrains are paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox, while all-wheel drive is available as an option.
