never mind rivals such as the upcoming mercedes-benz gla and its suave interior, current alternatives like the bmw x1 2020 have a considerably more upmarket and practical interior.

It proved to be so well-received that BMW went on to sell over 820,000 units over the model’s 6-year lifespan.

Yes, we are aware that the XC40 has a price premium over the X1 (RM 255,888 vs RM 233,800), but it is well justified.

Apart from the MINI Countryman, the other worthy alternative is the Volvo XC40.

Rounding up the exterior design are a set of 18-inch Style 570 M dual-tone alloy wheels.

The M Sport kit introduces large front fog light surrounds, more prominent side skirts, and a redesigned rear bumper with twin exhaust outlets.

The mid-life update for the X1 also gives the compact luxury crossover new full LED tail lights.

The revamped infotainment brings with it support for Apple CarPlay, as well the usual BMW ConnectedDrive suite of services.

Let’s take a closer look at the new X1 LCI versus the model it replaces.

But that’s where the good news ends – it is painfully obvious that the X1 came from an era of older BMW models, as its interior looks and feels dated.

While lower variants of the MINI Countryman share its powertrain with the X1, MINI Malaysia also offers the John Cooper Works version of the Countryman, which pumps out an eye-watering 306 PS.

The extra grunt allows the unassuming-looking XC40 to complete the 0-100 km/h sprint in just 6.4 seconds, as opposed to the 7.6 seconds of the X1.

Being an M Sport model, the X1 gets a sprinkling of M bits and pieces, including style 570 M alloy wheels, M Aerodynamics exterior package, M Sport suspension, and an M leather steering wheel.

Furthermore, unlike the earlier model’s Sport Line trim, the X1 LCI is adorned in an eye-catching M Sport kit, giving it a sportier appeal.

furthermore, just like the x1 price 2020 , the x1 price also does not feature any bmw x1 features, so no autonomous emergency braking, lane keep assist, or forward collision warning.

Stepping into the X1 LCI, the new model gets a new M leather-wrapped steering wheel, an updated 8.8-inch touchscreen infotainment display running on BMW Operating System 6.0.

But on-paper stats aside, the Volvo XC40 has a surprisingly practical interior, offering a lot of storage spaces that is well-suited for those who carry a lot of stuff.

starting with the front end of the new x1 price, the x1 lci gains a new trapezoid kidney grille, surrounded by new led headlights with more angular integrated led daytime running lights.
