BMW Launches X1 Long Wheelbase SUV Offering Enhanced Rear Comfort in India
BMW has introduced the X1 Long Wheelbase (LWB) in India, extending its smallest SUV to offer increased rear-seat space and comfort, targeting buyers who prioritize being chauffeured. The design subtly lengthens the wheelbase without altering the vehicle's sporty appearance. The X1 LWB features premium interiors with BMW's twin curved screens and improved ride quality, benefiting from higher ground clearance and comfort-oriented suspension. Powered by a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine, it balances everyday usability with the brand's driving dynamics, making it suitable for both city commutes and longer drives.
