Certified CenterYour local BMW dealer near Waynesville welcomed the 2013 BMW X1 recently to its dealer lot. The 2013 BMW X1 is a brand new model for the BMW lineup. Though the vehicle adopts many characteristics of the popular BMW SAV - the BMW X3 - the 2013 BMW X1 is no doubt a model all its own. What's more, this model fills a niche for consumers who like the look and convenience of an SAV, but shy away from their size.
Most notably, the 2013 BMW X1 is smaller than the BMW X3, even if just slightly so. The BMW X1 is about 3.3 inches narrower than the 2013 BMW X3, and just about twice that shorter than the BMX X3. Besides the size difference, however, the exterior of the BMW X1 is quite similar to the BMW X3. In fact, to the untrained eye the two models might appear to be identical.
Underneath the hood, the 2013 BMW X1 continues to follow in its elder sibling's footsteps. The base model of the 2013 BMW X1, like the 2013 BMW X3, features a 2.0-liter, four cylinder engine with 240 available horsepower. However, thanks to its smaller size, the 2013 BMW X1 enjoys a slightly better fuel economy than the X3.
