BMW X1 U11 is the third generation of the sub-compact SUV. It comes as front-wheel drive, as well as all-wheel drive with petrol and diesel engines. For example a three-cylinder, 170-horsepower petrol engine propelled the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, which I reviewed last year. If you don't need all-wheel drive, it's an engine worth checking out.
Except for the least powerful petrol and diesel engines, which are non-electrified, all others are either mild hybrids or plug-in hybrids. Plug-ins finally have charging up to 7.4 kW and batteries with more capacity than the BMW X3 PHEV I reviewed about two years ago.
I decided to remind myself what we liked about diesels, before it became clear that the future belongs to electric and electrified models. And by the way, BMW's sub-compact crossover can also be ordered as an EV called the iX1.
This is the BMW X1 xDrive23d, which means the most powerful 197-horsepower two-liter diesel, which, according to the manufacturer, should use about 5-5.5 L/100 km combined. This result is easily achievable.
