The 2023 BMW X1 xDrive 28i is a pleasantly surprising baby crossover.
Whereas most new BMWs use an eight-speed automatic, the X1 uses a seven-speed dual-clutch, owing to its shared platform with various Mini models. Oftentimes, a dual-clutch can add an extra sporty edge to a car, but here, it doesn't. It's a little slow to downshift, unless you put the car in "L," for low, and off-the-line, it's very clumsy, leading to slow getaways.
Thankfully, the engine's quite a bit better. It's the same 2.0-liter four-cylinder used throughout BMW's lineup, and it's smooth and torquey, with minimal turbo lag. The auto stop-start system is clunky, though, and to shut it off, there's no dedicated button. You have to go two menus deep to deactivate the system, and you'll have to do this every single time you turn off the car.
