Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Practical and well built interior
Potentially long warranty
Comfortable and quiet to drive

Cons
Range is nothing special
Some rivals can charge faster
Rivals have more-user friendly infotainment

By: 
whatcar.com

Pros
Handling is spry,
nicely-trimmed interior,
compliant ride.

Cons
Less range than rival EVs,
doesn't offer the fastest charging tech,
steer-by-wire system takes getting used to.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
More convincing than a petrol X1
New curved display is very appealing
Bigger and more practical than older X1s

Cons
Could there be a more affordable, less powerful version?
It’s a heavy blighter (but then so are most electric SUVs)
Lacks the pioneering feel of previous BMW i products

By: 
whichcar.com.au

Pros
Impressive performance
Good rear seat space
Decent range on a full charge

Cons
Firmer ride than rivals
No physical infotainment controls
Currently only one very expensive version available

By: 
whatcar.com

Pros
Feels premium
Easy to drive
Lots of kit as standard

No full one-pedal drive available
Pricey for a family SUV
Fiddly infotainment controls
