The BMW iX1 LWB is the brand's entry-level electric SUV in India, now updated for 2026 with a longer wheelbase for enhanced rear-seat comfort. It translates the versatile "X1" DNA into the electric era, featuring a blanked-out kidney grille with blue accents and an aerodynamic silhouette. The LWB (Long Wheelbase) version specifically targets the Indian chauffeur-driven market, providing executive-level legroom in a compact SUV footprint. For 2026, the palette has been refreshed with the sophisticated Night Dusk Blue, further emphasizing its premium positioning.
The interior is centered around the "BMW Curved Display" and the "Floating Armrest," which houses the gear selector and volume controls. The cabin is completely leather-free, utilizing "Veganza" vegan leather for the seats and recycled materials for many surfaces. It also features "BMW IconicSounds Electric," composed by Hans Zimmer, which provides acoustic feedback during acceleration to enhance the emotional driving experience. It serves as a perfect urban EV for families who want BMW luxury without the emissions of an internal combustion engine.
