The iX1 distinguishes itself from its ICE version with blue accents on the fore and aft bumpers and also on the door sills. Besides this, LED headlamps with inverted L-shaped DRLs and chunky kidney-shaped front grille continue to be offered.
Inside, the cabin of the iX1 will be equipped with a 10.7-inch touchscreen infotainment and a fully digital instrument cluster. The infotainment will be powered by BMW’s latest, eight-generation operating system.
