BMW Malaysia Introduces the New BMW X1 sDrive18i.

BMW Malaysia recently introduced the New BMW X1 sDrive18i, a new addition to its portfolio of locally-assembled vehicles. The new locally assembled BMW X1 variant underlines BMW Malaysia’s continued investments in the country.

Harald Hoelzl, Managing Director of BMW Group Malaysia said, “We are pleased to present the new locally-assembled SAV in the BMW X portfolio – the New BMW X1 sDrive18i. The new variant joins the BMW X1 sDrive20i M Sport we introduced in January this year, which is one of the key drivers of the relief work we have been doing for the underprivileged during the pandemic.”

“The New BMW X1 sDrive18i takes on the New Normal by further amplifying the energetic spirit and independence familiar of the powerful BMW X range in the premium compact vehicle segment. The new variant is ever-ready to meet each new challenge of thrilling sportiness with composure – bringing together the perfect synergy of dynamism, agility, and versatility,” Hoelzl added.

The New BMW X1 sDrive18i is a classic variant featuring the powerful yet efficient in-line 3-cylinder 1.5-litre engine paired to a 7-Speed Steptronic transmission with double clutch, capable of up to 140hp. With the most spacious interior in its class, the New BMW X1 sDrive18i features an expandable boot space of up to 1,550 litres. The new SAV is also equipped with unrivalled innovations, such as the highly-intuitive iDrive system.
A grand performance on any terrain.

The New BMW X1 sDrive18i comes with LED headlights, front LED fog lights, satin-finish aluminium roof rails and exterior trim, with new 17-inch light alloy wheels in V-spoke style 560 that gives the new SAV an athletic appearance.

Powering the New BMW X1 sDrive18i is the BMW TwinPower Turbo 1.5-litre three-cylinder engine, that won the International Engine of the Year Award for five consecutive years since 2015. With a maximum output of 140hp and a peak torque of 220Nm, the SAV generates a top speed of 201km/h. The new SAV can achieve the century sprint in 9.6 seconds. The model has a lower fuel consumption of 6.3 l/100km and reduced carbon emission of 144g/km. The dynamic engine is also complemented by a 7-Speed Steptronic transmission with double clutch.

Inside, the cockpit of the New BMW X1 sDrive18i features interior trim finishers in black high-gloss and highlight trim finishers in Pearl Chrome, along with Leather Dakota upholstery for a touch of sophistication. The new SAV also comes with a sport leather steering wheel, electrically-adjustable front seats, two-zone automatic air conditioning and the BMW grey headliner.

The new SAV is the most spacious interior in its class. The boot capacity of the New BMW X1 sDrive18i can be easily increased from 505 litres to 1,550 litres, when the rear seats are folded, for more storage space – making it the most spacious SAV in its class. The new SAV is complete with automatic tailgate operation with contactless opening and closing functions via Comfort Access.

The advanced infotainment system highlights the technological capabilities of the New BMW X1 sDrive18i via the intuitive iDrive system within the 8.8-inch Control Display that can be operated via the iDrive controller, by touch, and even voice control.
