The 2017 BMW X1: before you buy
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2017 BMW X1 for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Here is what to know about the 2017 BMW X1 before buying one.
A buyer's checks
Owners filed 164 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, unknown or other and service brakes; have those parts checked. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
Engine and fuel
The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
It is rated 8.9 L/100 km combined: about 27 litres every 300 km. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $155.80. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,150 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who rents the X1
It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.
Room inside
Being a large sedan, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. The trunk holds 765 litres by the EPA's count: bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
A longer test drive
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the X1 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Rent the X1 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.
Picking a year and a trim
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Within the 2017 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Running costs
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$3,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.58 in fuel.
