Woodcliff Lake, NJ – May 28, 2019.
Today, BMW announces the updated 2020 X1 Sports Activity Vehicle. Since its introduction in 2015, the X1 has gone on to become BMW’s best-selling X vehicle worldwide. In the U.S., the X1 is the third most popular X model, behind the X3 and X5.

The updated X1, available in front-wheel drive X1 sDr28i and all-wheel drive X1 xDr28i versions offers one of the roomiest cabins in its class combined with the technology, performance, comfort and agility attributes which make up the heart of all the models in BMW’s Sports Activity Vehicle line.

New exterior features

The latest version of the BMW X1 SAV receives more modern, updated exterior styling to reflect the design details found in its newer, larger siblings, such as the X3, X5 and X7. New, optional, LED headlights with hexagonal iconography are complemented by new LED fog lights. The BMW kidney grills feature a new, sculptured design with larger openings. Changes to the front and rear bumper design are highlighted by sharper lines and larger openings with integrated LED fog lights and give the 2020 BMW X1 its more modern look.

Towards the rear of the vehicle, new tinted LED taillights with L-shaped light bars accentuate the wider appearance of the exterior. The tailpipes have grown by 20mm, now 90mm in diameter.

The M Sport Package features a new, redesigned and more aggressive aerodynamics package including a new front bumper, side skirts, wheel arch trim, and rear diffuser in body color.

New interior features

When opening the front door, the driver is greeted by a new two-tone LED “X1” welcome projection. Inside the cabin, the driver and passengers are able to interface with the 2020 BMW X1 via the standard 8.8 inch central control display screen with iDrive 6, Navigation and Apple CarPlay Compatibility.

The instrument panel and floor mats features new, decorative contrast stitching while choosing the optional Dakota leather interior adds color-matched lower dashboard and door handles surfaces.

A new electronic gear selector switch connects to an updated version of the 8-speed Steptronic automatic transmission.

New colors

Three new metallic colors have been added to the options list: Storm Bay metallic, Jucaro Beige and Misano Blue metallic. Estoril Blue has been removed.

Standard, non-metallic carryover colors include Alpine White and Jet Black. Carryover optional metallic paints include Black Sapphire Metallic, Glacier Silver Metallic, Mineral White Metallic, Mineral Grey Metallic, 3 Sparkling Brown Metallic, Dark Olive Metallic, Mediterranean Blue Metallic and Sunset Orange Metallic.

Power and performance

The 2020 BMW X1 is powered by the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbocharged engine (SULEV rated) from BMW’s family of modular engines. Power output is 228 hp @ 5,000 – 6,000 rpm and 258 lb-ft of torque @ 1,450 - 4,500 rpm. Full torque is available in the low and mid-range, where the majority of daily driving takes place, allowing for quick and immediate acceleration when needed. Acceleration from 0 – 60 mph is accomplished in 6.3 seconds for the all-wheel drive X1 xDrive28i and 6.6 seconds for the X1 sDrive28i.

The 8-speed Steptronic automatic transmission in the 2020 BMW X1 features revised gear ratios for improved performance and offers fast and almost imperceptible shifts, improving comfort for the driver and passengers. A Sport Automatic transmission and steering wheel mounted shift paddles are included when the optional M Sport Package is selected.

The BMW xDrive system, available on the X1 xDrive28i, works with the DSC Dynamic Stability Control system to transfer power to the rear wheels when it is needed, to reduce understeer in turns, improve traction when going uphill, on slippery surfaces and during more spirited driving.

Wheels and Tires

New design 18 inch Y-spoke bi-color and black wheels replace the previous Y-spoke wheel design. A new 19 inch M Double-spoke wheel replaces an outgoing 19 inch Y-spoke wheel design.

Standard equipment on the 2020 BMW X1 includes 18 inch Y-Spoke bi-color wheels with 225/50R18 all-season run-flat tires. 18 inch Double-Spoke Jet Black wheels are available as a no-cost option. 19 inch Y-Spoke wheels with 225/45R19 performance run-flat tires are a stand-alone option.

18 inch M Double-spoke bi-color wheels with either all-season run flat or non-run-flat tires are standard when selecting the M Sport package. Additionally, M Sport vehicles can be upgraded with 19 inch M Double-spoke bi-color wheels with 225/45R19 performance run-flat tires.

I get it that it's a big product onslaught, but BMW needs to be better in spacing out their new releases and LCIs.
 
autocar

BMW’s most popular global SUV, the X1, has been given a mid-life makeover, bringing tweaked looks and – for the first time outside of China – a plug-in hybrid version.

Given that BMW shifted nearly 287,000 examples of the X1 last year, leading the segment, it’s no surprise that visual updates aren’t the most extensive.
 
This is one very nice LCI, in true BMW style. The F48 is a success right from the start and with the LCI model, it will certainly remain on the growth path. The details are harmoniously integrated into the whole and add a note of freshness to the X1, updating to the latest BMW design trends. It looks that they have added a 5 Series-style, larger center display as the range-topping iDrive screen choice, which is great compared to the smaller display Professional offered up to now on the pre-LCI X1.

Great with a new big center screen and a proper round tachometer for those of us who still appreciates that.
 
Very surprised they didn’t include the live cockpit...3 more years of the analogue display?

The Live Cockpit is mated to the BMW OS 7.0 and requires additional physical space and thus, it would have meant that BMW had heavily revised the whole dashboard, if not a whole new dashboard a la F40 would have been required. And this solution would be totally unacceptable and unnecessary for an LCI model (given the fact this is X1, a lower-range model). Analogue dials are still ok and they successfully accomplish their tasks even in this ubiquitously digital era.

P.S.: The G11/G12 LCI is another story, given the dimensions of the dashboard. The new OS 7.0 was easier to accomodate without changing the dashboard design, plus we are talking about the brand flagship.

The LIVE cockpit is also analogue.


There seems to be a misunderstanding as to what "analogue" means. Analogue means something which presents data in a continuously variable physical quantity. In the case of a speedometer on a car, the needle continuously moves and indicates the speed at any one moment. The LIVE cockpit does just that, it's just that the needle has been swapped for a graph on the periphery of the display. "Ah, but the needle isn't physically there, it's an LCD panel". Well, so is the needle in this X1 LCI. So, both the LIVE cockpit and this X1 LCI are both examples of analogue displays, but with the continuously variable physical quantity being respresented by something which is electronically generated.

On both examples, you can also display the speed ADDITIONALLY as a numerical display.

Today you taught me something new. Very enlightening! But now you've got me scratching my head. Paradigms, paradigms...

So, if we want to be scientifically exact, computer graphics by its nature can not be continuous because of the limited number of pixels, so there is no continuously variable on any digital screen.
Live cockpit is digital representation of analogue instruments.
 
It's a refreshing update that brings it into line with its older siblings.
Especially the front, where the X1 takes on an appearance of a mini-X5.
I expect X3 will get a similar refreshing when it comes around with the now ubiquitous "connected" Kidney Grille.

Eh, to me 'analogue instruments' is when it stops working if the service indicator PCB battery leaks over the odometer and the cogs dissolve, leaving the mileage stuck where it was 5 years ago.
