Among the 13 C-SUV plug-in hybrid, the X1 xDrive25e combines two vehicles in one: an electric sedan for urban use (last in segment), a petrol tourer for long distances. Caralogy puts the X1 xDrive25e through its paces: motorway simulation, consumption simulation and performance simulation.

Caralogy Verdict
Suitable for

C-SUV plug-in hybrid among the best in segment: 4th of 13 in Combined range (708 km), 2nd of 12 in Thermal cons. estimated (5.5 L/100).

Less suitable for

Regular long motorway trips. Beyond the 49 km EV range, the car runs on pure combustion. On trips >300 km weekly, a BEV or HEV would be more relevant.

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is Electric WLTP range, the Honda CR-V e:PHEV (1st with 81 km) takes the lead. If the priority is Combined range, the Ford Kuga PHEV 225 (1st with 1013 km) takes the lead.

In the city: 49 km pure electric (last in segment)

With a full battery, the X1 xDrive25e drives in pure electric mode for the first 49 km WLTP - placing it 13th of 13 in Electric WLTP range, behind the Honda CR-V e:PHEV (81 km). In urban and peri-urban use, the X1 xDrive25e behaves like a pure electric sedan in its segment.

BMW X1 xDrive25e: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Where does the X1 xDrive25e rank in its segment?

Among the 13 C-SUV plug-in hybrid 2019–2023, the X1 xDrive25e ranks 13th of 13 in Electric WLTP range (49 km, behind the Honda CR-V e:PHEV), 4th of 13 in Combined range (708 km, behind the Ford Kuga PHEV 225), 2nd of 12 in Thermal cons. estimated (5.5 L/100, behind the Ford Kuga PHEV 225), 8th of 13 in 0–100 km/h (6.9 s, behind the Toyota RAV4 PHEV).

What is the électrique range of the X1 xDrive25e?

49 km WLTP announced - making it the 13th of 13 in Electric WLTP range out of 13 models. The reference is the Honda CR-V e:PHEV (81 km).

How much does the X1 xDrive25e cost to run?

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Why not a Honda CR-V e:PHEV instead?

The Honda CR-V e:PHEV leads in Electric WLTP range (81 km vs 49 km). The choice depends on your priorities: check the X1 xDrive25e vs Honda CR-V e:PHEV duel for a detailed comparison.

How does Caralogy calculate its figures?

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
