Thanks for the video. I ordered mine a few weeks ago and while I’m waiting, I watch some videos about it on CZcams. But there isn’t many videos about the 25e, so thanks again.
A decent review of the X1 hybrid, especially as English is not your first language. Well done, a good practical review. Thanks from the UK. You deserve more views and likes! 👍
Hi Steve, thank you so much for very nice comment! this keep me doing what I do for people. When I started I assumed that will be disaster for me trying to record video in English, but I do practice and hopefully next ones will be a least slightly better. This is real world test so I believe I will save some time and effort (which means money ;p) for many people doing this stuff. Have a nice weekend - cheers :)
Like you said, it’s a shame that adaptive cruise control doesn’t come standard. My company is leasing one for me, but to keep it under budget you really lose a lot - no heated seats, standard paint, no adaptive cruise control, even apple car play is extra. I had to push for a reversing camera, which should be standard on a BMW if it’s standard on VW or a Honda. 🤦🏻♂️
Hi Y3MINEM, thank you for comment, my biggest complain is lack of option for digital driver display which is becoming standard for all other vehicles this class. I must admit that in Norway these vehicles are slightly better equipped. Well, this is BMW cheapest SUV so I guess they want to make it looks like really cheap one so the others X2, X3 looks way better for the price you pay. I don't know, I'm just gassing. Have a nice day - cheers :)
Hi Filip, yes and yes, electric motor is powering the rear wheel axle, the 4 wheel drive we have only when battery is powering the motor. I have had this system in my previous BMW 225 xe iPerformance. thank you for comment and have a nice weekend - cheers :)
Hi Yossi, thanks for comment. Actually is not noisy, I have received very good score in my testing. You can find the video on my YT channel with this particular test: czcams.com/video/4Se6Ysnovqc/video.html or full review of this particular vehicle under this link: czcams.com/video/UlsIkbD_Scs/video.html Have a good watching and take care :)
Plug-In Hybrid doesn't have paddle shift, this is only available for Sport package combustion engines. The other one I was showing in the video was 20d. cheers :)
Great, practical review! Could you tell me how this vehicle behaves after 140km/h when there is no electric support? Is it acceptable on highways or definitely "no"? hows the fuel consumption ~140km/h and above? I understand this car is exceptional for city and roads, just wondering.. or should I look more for 330e.
Thank for comment Artur. I cannot tell because in Norway maximum speed limit is 110km/h unfortunately. I would say 3 series should be way better on the highway, hybrids should be cheaper to run in town. Have a nice day :)
👋 feel free to SUBSCRIBE to my channel, soon new exciting videos are coming 😍

This is not AWD car. Did you feel the difference compared to other suvs with full 4x4?

Are paddle shift an extra choice? Cannot seem to add this in the configurator in my country?
The hybrid version doesn’t have paddle shifters

It definitely feels less powerful after 140kmh but it’s still not too bad. The e motor does assist the engine a bit when you press the pedal more.

thanks a lot for support. have a great day Isaac :)
