2013 BMW X Series Sport Utility Crossover

Summary

Provided by NADAguides.com

All new for 2013, the BMW X1 is a compact crossover SUV available in standard RWD and optional AWD. Engine options consist of a 2.0-liter turbo-charged 4-cylinder engine (240 hp) and optional 3.0-liter V6 engine (300 hp). An 8-speed automatic and 6-speed automatic transmission enable the X1 to achieve an EPA estimated range of 24 mpg city and 34 mpg highway. Features include 18-inch wheels, adaptive headlights, leather upholstery, wood trim, automatic climate control, hands-free phone capabilities, moonroof, navigation, and a M Sport Line package. Safety is comprised of hill descent control (HDC), dynamic stability control (DSC), advanced airbags, anti-lock braking (ABS), and tire pressure monitoring (TPMS). The X1 is backed by a 4-year/50,000-mile warranty.�

Benefits of Driving a 2013 BMW X Series Sport Utility Crossover

At about 175 inches long--a little longer than the Range Rover Evoque, a little shorter than the Audi Q5--the BMW X1 is roughly the same length as a compact sedan, so parking and maneuverability will be easy. It also makes more of available space than some other small crossover vehicles, thanks to a low cargo floor and flat-folding seats. And while the X1 offers a lot of practicality and versatility--as well as EPA fuel economy ratings of up to 33 mpg on the highway--it promises good performance. Even with the turbocharged 4-cylinder in its sDrive28i guise, the X1 can accelerate to 60 mph in just 6.2 seconds.

What's new for 2013?

The BMW X1, which arrives in fall of 2012, is an all-new compact luxury crossover that combines some of the attributes of smaller hatchbacks and wagons, as well as downsized proportions of BMW's larger X3 and X5, with a somewhat more upright look. Performance of this rear- or front-wheel-drive vehicle is quite close to that of the BMW 3-Series sport sedans, however.

Model Strengths

• Space-efficient packaging
• easy parking and maneuverability
• rakish exterior
• strong performance
• luxurious interior
• extensive option possibilities

Model Review

The BMW X1 will be offered in three different models for the U.S.: rear-wheel-drive sDrive28i, all-wheel-drive xDrive28i, and all-wheel-drive xDrive35i. Both of the 28i models include a 240-horsepower, 2.0L TwinPower turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, while the 35i gets a 300-hp, 3.0L TwinPower turbocharged 6-cylinder. Both engines are mated to a 6-speed Steptronic automatic transmission.

Original Warranty  Original Warranty An original warranty is the warranty associated with a vehicle when it is brand new. In addition to the original warranty, select items, like tires, are typically covered by respective manufacturers. Also, an act of Federal law sometimes provides protection for certain components, like emissions equipment. The original warranty is often broken down into multiple sections, including: Basic Warranty: Typically covers everything except for parts that wear out through normal use of the vehicle. Examples of non-covered items are brake pads, wiper blades and filters. Drivetrain Warranty: This warranty covers items the basic warranty does not protect. Wear and tear items such as hoses will not be covered, but key items like the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft often will be. Roadside Assistance: The level of service differs greatly with this warranty, but many manufacturers offer a toll-free number that helps provide assistance in case you run out of gas, get a flat tire or lock your keys in the car. Corrosion Warranty: This warranty focuses on protecting you from holes caused by rust or corrosion in your vehicle's sheet metal. Please check the owner's manual, visit a local dealership or look at the manufacturer's website to learn more about the specifics of the warranties that apply to a vehicle.	Miles	Months

BMW Certified Pre-Owned Warranty  Certified Pre-Owned Warranty To be eligible for Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) status, vehicles generally must be recent models with relatively low mileage. CPO vehicles must also pass a detailed inspection, outlined by the manufacturer, which is measured by the number of inspected points. Warranty coverage can vary from one manufacturer to the next. While most certified pre-owned programs transfer and extend the existing new car warranty terms, others offer a warranty that simply represents an additional year and mileage value. Always check with the manufacturer for the specific warranties they offer. Common features and benefits of Certified Pre-Owned warranties include: Age/Mileage Eligibility To even be considered for certification, a car must be a recent model year and have limited mileage. The exact requirements are established by individual manufacturers. Lease Term Certified Some manufacturers offer certified pre-owned cars for lease. The length of the lease is often shorter than a new car lease, but it will cost you less. Point Inspection These inspections entail a comprehensive vehicle test to ensure that all parts are in excellent working order. The point inspection list is simply a numbered list of exactly what parts of the car are examined. While many inspections range from a 70- to 150-point checklist, most are very similar and are performed using strict guidelines. Ask your local dealer about specific details. Return/Exchange Program Some manufacturers offer a very limited return or exchange period. Find out if you will get the sales tax and licensing/registration fees back should you return or exchange the car. Roadside Assistance Most certified pre-owned programs offer free roadside service in case your car breaks down while still under warranty. Special Financing Reduced-rate loans are available through many certified pre-owned programs. Manufacturer-backed inspections and warranties help eliminate the risks involved with buying pre-owned, so buyers who qualify can take advantage of the great offers. Transferable Warranty When a new car warranty transfers with the certification of the car and remains eligible for the next owner, it is known as a transferable warranty. Once the original transferable warranty expires, an extended warranty takes effect. Warranty Deductible This is the amount for which you are responsible when repair work is performed under the warranty. Some manufacturers require a deductible while others don't, so always ask.
