BMW Expands Long-Wheelbase X1 Models in India with Petrol and Electric Versions
BMW has expanded its long-wheelbase (LWB) luxury car offerings in India, reflecting the preference of many buyers who are chauffeured and value rear legroom. The company recently launched a petrol LWB version of the X1 SUV to complement the existing electric iX1 LWB. Both models share similar spacious interiors and features, but differ in performance, range, and price. The electric iX1 offers higher power and a 531 km range, while the petrol X1 provides convenience for long journeys and is more affordable, catering to different customer needs.
