Before you buy this vehicle, let me point out the error BMW made in its design. On the front grill area where the radiator is located and slightly visible. Designers should have considered to put a mesh grill cover. Just recently purchased the M35i version, in less than 3 weeks of driving on the freeway to go to work. A rock hit the radiator, took it to BMW for service and unfortunately it is not covered on their warranty. Hefty service price to pay 😏
I just called the dealership right after reading this, I did notice the unsecured gap on the grill, my m35 is just two weeks old. So what i learned is ur Car Insurance will cover for that damage with any deductibles if you have on ur plan. And the dealer will take care of it. Where you able to check with your Insurance?
I have a dealer loaner of this car, its been fun driving it around. Completely loaded. I almost considered canceling my x3mc order and just getting this instead 😂😂😂
@rickrolled2691 I just had a 24 has a loaner, holy s***it's a beast and honestly don't think yiu need anymore power than the m40i. Handles amazing, sounds amazing, isn't too big. Perfect suv imo
My regular X1 with upgrades to provide an acceptable vehicle with things like lumbar support, adaptive cruise, sport seats, etc ran $45K. Pricing a comparable M35i runs about the $58K of the vehicle tested here. So what do you get for that extra $13K? Quad exhausts, wee bit faster, better brakes, piped in artificial sound. What do you lose? Spare tire, bumpier ride, poorer gas mileage. What doesn’t change? Lag/jerk from a stop. AWD that does not perform when making a turn in snow - simply skates wherever it pleases on a turn.
It has the new m139 hand built motor. It’s almost 400 horse power in a car that weighs 3,600lbs and it’s awd. I destroy my body that has a 2015 c63. Not sure what you mean by real AMG?

It's actually pretty common with new cars before they begin selling them to the public. But usually they make the repairs before they make it to the dealership
It bothers me that for a luxury brand that the price ranges from 50k to 120k that EVERYTHING is an additional option. Things that would be standard equipment on a 30k economy car from Honda or Toyota and probably with a larger infotainment screen.
Like jay Leno said when reviewing cyber beast: nobody wants a giant key fob in their pocket and premium doesn’t come from being heavy and big. It comes from not having one at all, and working with your phone.
That has to be the biggest keyfob I've ever seen and not something I would want to carry in my pocket. My guess is the average person would prefer a much smaller keyfob unless they consider their fob as some sort of overgrown fashion statement. Maybe this is ti compensate for the smaller grill.
They now sell X1 as compact suv and not subcompact. Moreover, the x35i of bmw and 2.5t of genesis trim versions have similar specs and price range. Very much comparable!
BMW seems to crush every category except their pricing scheme is just ridiculous, should be 10k less than msrp in this vid for a small SUV, but I guess that’s inflation too😮💨
I love the car. Such a nice improvement over the last gen X1. The blinking sequence of the new BMW turn signals gives me an epileptic fit. It’s absolutely atrocious..
@07slade do your 2024 x1 m35 make a shvroommmm noise when last minute braking like braking too late? When I hit brakes too late it sounds like it's still accelerating while braking I bought it brand new and I hear it while in sports mode and personal mode but if I brake slowly I don't hear it
You have to keep in mind that Toyota buyers and BMW customers are often very different people. People who want this also want the performance, handling and the badge (and everything that comes with it). They don't care so much about "never seeing a dealer again". They'll drive these cars for a while, trade them in or return the lease and get a new one.
My man needs to get me a Bimmer but this one is too small. I deserve an X5 and above. Sorry not sorry haters! I know what my phat chocolate yams are worth: priceless!!!!
At that price, you are just paying for a brand name. Most other cars in the class come standard with many of the so called options BMW is nickel and diming you for.

That key fob is massive!
Would have been nice to share the details of the recall... oversight or deliberate omission?
I found one for 2023 X1: “integrated braking system.”

Is the glovebox lockable??

Thank you guys for reviewing this car! Been waiting on this one, thinking of getting this over x3m40i to save myself $10k 😅
I'd spend the extra 10k for the X3M40i
@rickrolled2691 I just had a 24 has a loaner, holy s***it's a beast and honestly don't think yiu need anymore power than the m40i. Handles amazing, sounds amazing, isn't too big. Perfect suv imo
Damn, I was looking forward to that test drive
My favorite SUV 😍🔥
what’s this color called?

Need 3 liters inline 6.
X1 28i with AWD is all you need. No need to go X1 M35i. Both model are 7speed vs 8speed. What they should have done was make the X1 M35i 8Speed.
Insane vehicle guys.
How does it drive ?
I have a new BMW M2 and my key fob is pretty normal. That X1 M35i key fob is as big as a small phone. 😂
Und?Vermutlich sind es ihre Komplexe!
It’s very nice! It’s a great price
If you were going to buy one, you would choose this new x1 or you would buy the genesis gv70 3.5 sport prestige
Excellent review!
I love bmw 😍
I considered an X1 M35i as it’s a great vehicle but for practical reasons I went with a 2023 AMG GLB 35 and I’m super happy with it.
What's the recall? I just test drove one yesterday
It's fine now, nothing to worry about. Automakers often do that on vehicle that aren't for sale yet
Amazing video guys.
Reliability????
Every nice feature is optional...who does BMW think they are Porsche 😮😅😂.
I’ll keep my 22 GLA45. I was hoping it would would be a little more powerful. Can’t go to a slower vehicle. Lol.
Buy a real AMG next time ❤
It has the new m139 hand built motor. It’s almost 400 horse power in a car that weighs 3,600lbs and it’s awd. I destroy my body that has a 2015 c63. Not sure what you mean by real AMG?
Loving it 😍 ❤️ 💖 💕 ♥️. How much does it cost?
$54,000 with the M package.
@@johnsambo9379 OK
Why doesn't M package come standard on a m car? I know its fake M but you pay more for the 35i.
The X-1 has certainly improved over the years, but I’m quite happy with my Mazda CX-5 Signature, which misses out on a couple of perks on the BMW
Belleza de x1
Buy a Toyota or Honda and u can drive it til 1 million miles with cheaper repairs and cheap spare parts
Nobody’s buying these. All leases.
But they are no fun to drive… and I have a Toyota.

I wish the exhaust was similar to the x3 m40i with a little gargle and pops.. but still looks nice and sounds good
Have you driven one- ha
@deancapinegro4575 no, but I kinda want to.. I'm just not a fan of the entire dash is all screen.
The fact that the 2024 x1 got a recall after its not even been out worrys me
It's actually pretty common with new cars before they begin selling them to the public. But usually they make the repairs before they make it to the dealership
Whats the recall
Alright good to know
It bothers me that for a luxury brand that the price ranges from 50k to 120k that EVERYTHING is an additional option. Things that would be standard equipment on a 30k economy car from Honda or Toyota and probably with a larger infotainment screen.
Like jay Leno said when reviewing cyber beast: nobody wants a giant key fob in their pocket and premium doesn’t come from being heavy and big. It comes from not having one at all, and working with your phone.
you have the possibility to have one key as a digital key on your phone, so no physical key needed.
That has to be the biggest keyfob I've ever seen and not something I would want to carry in my pocket. My guess is the average person would prefer a much smaller keyfob unless they consider their fob as some sort of overgrown fashion statement. Maybe this is ti compensate for the smaller grill.
8:27, higly annoyed by that interior storage... practically USELESS for that console.... what was BMW thinking?!?!?!!?
BMW X1 M35I vs Mazda CX50 2.5T (60hp less but torque is 320 lb.ft)...
"long vehicle at 177" !!!
Whats shorter then that ???
Damn. Recalled?
No unrepaired recall on NHTSA. Search a VIN for a M35i like WBX13EF08R5Y14075
A comparison video of genesis gv70 2.5t sports prestige vs bmw x1 35i top model 2024. Looking forward to your analysis and insights!
X1 (subcompact) is not comparable to the Genesis GV70. That would be the X3.
They now sell X1 as compact suv and not subcompact. Moreover, the x35i of bmw and 2.5t of genesis trim versions have similar specs and price range. Very much comparable!
It should be the 40i, then it would have a i6 in a subcompact suv.
OMG, a recall already? I'll stick with my Honda CRV!
If you are driving a CRV the an X1 is not something you would want with or without a recall. FYI Honda is recalling 1.7M vehicles due to steering.
BMW seems to crush every category except their pricing scheme is just ridiculous, should be 10k less than msrp in this vid for a small SUV, but I guess that’s inflation too😮💨
that small suv looks so bulky, might as well be an x5
So we can appreciate the overall design of the car please include a bird's eye view of your review.
I love the car. Such a nice improvement over the last gen X1. The blinking sequence of the new BMW turn signals gives me an epileptic fit. It’s absolutely atrocious..

Great review …except you didn’t drive it
Yes, they option u to death.. then car is double.. buy a Toyota and u will never see a dealer again.. just drive..save money..
You have to keep in mind that Toyota buyers and BMW customers are often very different people.

They'll drive these cars for a while, trade them in or return the lease and get a new one.
You certainly don't get luxury features on Toyotas.
@@tmyere.this BMW does not offer rear heated seats. Kia does.
@@Ken-vl4wkthis is bmw cheapest suv . Don't expect x5 or x7 like features. Kia's cheapest suv seltos doesn't have heated rear seats
@@kevij371 xdrive28i is around 40k. Something like telluride EX $41K will have ventilated front. Plus heated seats is AN OPTION in the X1.
car look great, but i woulnt even think about it all because that storage-nostorage for the front passengers....
Every BMW comes with 20 packages which double your price 😂 , dealers are ripping people off , they are simply thugs
🫣😲👎Et le tesst 🤔..??😱😩
My man needs to get me a Bimmer but this one is too small. I deserve an X5 and above. Sorry not sorry haters! I know what my phat chocolate yams are worth: priceless!!!!
Honda CRV,, and mazda CX5,, is millions time better than
dual clutch sucks
At that price, you are just paying for a brand name. Most other cars in the class come standard with many of the so called options BMW is nickel and diming you for.
