NCAP 5★
“The X1 is a well-rounded premium compact SUV with impressive safety credentials, sharp handling, and a tech-forward cabin that justifies its ₹50.9 lakh positioning. However, the 148 bhp petrol engine feels slightly coarse for the segment, and restricting variants to a single powertrain limits buyer flexibility—best experienced in higher trims where features justify the premium.
5-star NCAPPremium safety standard few compact SUVs match.

✓Stands out

- Strong value proposition at this price point
!Gives us pause
- Single petrol engine option across all variants limits choice
- 148 bhp feels slightly coarse and unrefined in real-world driving
- Touchscreen menu layout lacks intuitive controls
- No sunroof or ventilated seats for cabin comfort
- Powertrain doesn't match segment refinement expectations
