The X1 xDrive25Le is a plug-in hybrid vehicle manufactured at BMW Brilliance Automotive’s Tiexi plant in Shenyang, China. It was unveiled back in 2016 at the Chengdu Motor Show. The vehicle is also the first plug-in hybrid model in the compact luxury SUV segment.

The updated X1 xDrive25Le will carry the same powertrain as the original model. It includes a 1.5-litre turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine, which is combined with an electric motor. The mill churns out a maximum power of 231 PS along with a peak torque of 382 Nm. The petrol engine sends the drive to the front wheels via a six-speed Steptronic gearbox, while the electric motor works for the rear wheels. The car can reach from 0 to 100 kmph in 7.4 seconds.

As per the company, the revamped battery unit uses nickel, cobalt, and manganese in 8:1:1 ratio for the anode material. The increment in nickel's composition is claimed to increase energy density. The standard X1 xDrive25Le is equipped with a 10.7 kWh battery, which indicates that the new model might come with more capacity.
