The 3rd generation BMW X1 was spotted with its NK design.

Why aren't you in your bed? It's sleepy sleepy time buddy. Mommy will wake you up early in the morning so you can continue trolling.

On topic, is this the actual next gen version with the RWD based NK platform? Or a facelift of the current with new design, because 2027 would most definitely mean facelift. 2023 was its first full year on the market, and we haven't had a facelift yet.
Then again, this all looks pretty radical for a mere facelift of the cheapest model they have...it even has iX3 style pop up door handles.

Yeah this is the new platform for EVs only. The current U11 will get a facelift when this comes out for the ICE versions.

So iX1 basically will be the iX3 of the X1? The LCI of the present X1 will be heavily reskinned to accommodate some of the styling of the new iX1 similar to the 3er G50 which is a reskinned G20 3er but will use styling elements from the i3?

In this prototype at the rear at least I am seeing some of the Circular Concept especially with the arches flaring out. If rumours are true? Then the next 1er/i1 will be influenced somewhat by that concept.

So I suppose the current U11 facelift will drop the iX1 then.

Makes sense with an all new iX1. Wonder if iX1M is on the cards?

iX1M....broooo lmao what a name

Don’t see why the current X1 has to receive a heavy FL. It’s such a great design.

Needs to fit with the new era.

We are looking at the first spy shots of the NK platform based iX1, aka totally different from the current U11

I really don't think they will change the current X1 much with its facelift.

We are getting the iX3M or the X3M as they want to call it. Seems logical.

New iX1 is going to be a big improvement from the current one, available in RWD instead of FWD is a biggie. Hopefully they sell it in the states.
