Compare the 2025 BMW X1 Specs
The new BMW X1 features powerful performance, something backed up by the 313-horsepower X1 M35i model. Not only is it the most powerful variant of the X1 -- it also is the only performance-oriented model that offers more than sporty looks alone.
While models like the Lexus UX and Cadillac XT4 offer variants that look fast, they don’t increase horsepower or performance beyond what’s already found in their respective base models. In this segment, nothing comes close to the sheer athleticism that’s inherent to every new X1 for sale in Tennessee.

Compare the 2025 BMW X1 Interior Features
The BMW X1 interior further underscores why this SUV reigns supreme. The iDrive Infotainment software found in the X1 promises a seamless and intuitive control over the multimedia experience, while its industry-leading Active Driving Assistant overshadows the Lexus Safety System+ 2.5 and the Cadillac Smart System. Additionally, the Mercedes-Benz GLA doesn’t even feature a comparable safety suite.
Combining comfort with practicality, the X1 becomes an irresistible option with its maximum cargo volume of 58.7 cubic feet, making it the best option here by a wide margin. No wonder so many drivers prefer the X1 to any of the competing models profiled here.
