The BMW X1 is a luxury subcompact crossover that serves as the entry point for the BMW SUV lineup near Auburn and Phenix City. The BMW X1 is distinguished by attractive BMW styling and it provides a level of cargo space that's surprising for an SUV of its size. Of course, it wouldn't be a BMW if it didn't live up to the brand promise of the Ultimate Driving Machine™, and it does. Here's what else you can expect when you review the new 2025 BMW X1 our luxury dealership in Columbus, GA.
