Take a look at the interior and the exterior of the new BMW X1. Have a first look at the BMW X1 at the Frankfurt Motorshow in September 2009.
The BMW X1 is an upcoming compact SUV manufactured by BMW. It will extend the current BMW Sports Activity Series model lineup, currently consisting of the BMW X3 (which will be moved upmarket), BMW X5, and the BMW X6.
The X1 is based on the same platform as the AWD BMW 3 Series Touring.
Production will begin in Europe in the BMW Werk Leipzig plant in October 2009. It will not be sold in the United States until 2011 (when it will join the similarly-sized but competitive Ford Kuga, Audi Q3), after production of the second generation X3 begins in South Carolina.
