2023 BMW X1 First Drive Review: The sporty one
more presence while still being kind to the eyes, and an interior that feels interesting and inviting, but also modern in both design and technology. And the cherry on top for 2023 is more power, which, ultimately, means this X1 is faster than last year’s xDrive28i. Not a bad formula, at least at first glance.
Inside, that step up in size gives the occupants more room, but the subcompact segment limitations remain: The passenger seat still needs to be moved forward quite a bit to put a rear-facing child seat behind it. The optional sport front seats are quite comfortable, offering great lower back and shoulder support. The rear cargo area is smaller on paper, down from 27.1 cubic feet in 2022 to 25.
The dual-clutch transmission does its job quickly and smoothly, and we never found the X1 hunting for the right gear. Paddle shifters were a notable exclusion in our tester, though they are available with the M Sport package, which we hope to sample soon, as it also includes an adaptive suspension, a slick M steering wheel and a number of other goodies. It also meant we were missing out on the Sport Boost function, which puts the car into its sportiest settings when you hold the left paddle.
