The BMW X1 is a compact crossover manufactured by BMW. It extends the current BMW Sports Activity Series model lineup which includes the BMW X3, BMW X5, and the BMW X6. The X1 is based on the same platform as the BMW 3 Series Touring (wagon) with xDrive.[2] Compared to the larger X3, the X1 is positioned as a slightly smaller but more affordable and sportier entry.[3]

The USA market may only get the BMW N52B30 3.0-liter inline-6, either in the 260 hp (194 kW) tune as in the X3 xDrive30i[5] or the 230 hp (172 kW) tune as in the 328/xDrive28i variants.[6] BMW will start selling the X1 in the American market by late 2012 as a 2013 model, but BMW Canada started selling the X1 in early 2011 as a 2012 model.
