While we’ve already seen an image of the upcoming BMW X1 wearing no camouflage at a photo shoot (granted the image was a little choppy and low-res), BMW has dropped four “spy shots” of the upcoming compact SUV. So far we expect a 2009 Frankfurt Motor show debut later this year. It has been confirmed [...]
2010 will be a pretty busy year for Bayerische Motoren Werke. On the way is the 2010 BMW 5-Series GT which should enter production this fall with sales to start in the earlier half of 2010.

The upcoming 2010 BMW X1 was spotted completely undisguised at a photo shoot – unfortunately there is only one hazy picture of the spotting. The picture comes courtesy of a forum member over at forum-auto.com. The production X1 looks basically identical to the Concept X1 that was unveiled at the 2008 Paris Motor Show. The BMW [...]
With Bangle gone, BMW continues work on the X1 very-compact SUV.

Market wise it was a no brainer for BMW; so whether you like it or not, 2010 will mark the year for compact SUVs from BMW. That’s right – a production X1 and Mini Crossover will go on sale in 2010. According to CEO Norber Reithofer, BMW cancelled old product plans like the X7 since they [...]
Next year will be pretty exciting for BMW. It will be introducing the 2009 BMW 7-Series along with a hybrid variant, a BMW X6 Hybrid and a production version of its new BMW Concept X1. As we’ve told you over and over again, the BMW X1 will go into production next year at BMW’s Leipzig [...]
