Used 2023 BMW X1 for SaleNationwide

How much does the 2023 BMW X1 cost?

Prices have softened 13.60% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 258 listings available, which suggests healthy inventory for you to compare prices and equipment.

Is the 2023 BMW X1 a good car?

Yes — the 2023 BMW X1 earns a 5/5 user rating and a 7.8/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Performance and Form and function.

The X1 is described as an all-new, third-generation small luxury crossover that blends a zippy, fun driving character with added capability and plenty of cargo space. That makes it a strong fit if you want something that feels more engaging than many rivals while still covering everyday utility.

The trade-offs are that some advanced safety features are not standard, and the features many shoppers want can push the price up significantly. Even so, 32.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2023 BMW X1 reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The X1’s appeal is built around standard all-wheel drive, premium interior materials, and a driving character that is meant to feel fun rather than merely practical. Its 2.0-litre twin-turbo four-cylinder is paired with an all-new seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, and BMW says the suspension and damping systems have been upgraded for better comfort and stability.

The fuel-economy figures are respectable for the class, and the model’s standard equipment and premium feel support confidence in day-to-day ownership. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that the most desirable equipment is often tied to packages, so you’ll want to verify exactly what’s fitted before you buy.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 BMW X1?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The cabin feels distinctly premium, with the BMW Curved Display, SensaTec 2.0 seat coverings, standard LED headlights and taillights, and a clean interior layout. The xLine design adds silver accents and black fender arches, while the M Sport Package adds more body-coloured elements, Shadowline exterior features, sport seats, a stitched SensaTec dashboard, and an M leather steering wheel with paddle shifters.
• Powertrain: You get a 2.0-litre twin-turbo four-cylinder with 241 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque, paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. It is described as quick, agile, and more engaging than many crossovers in its class.
• Safety package: Active blind-spot monitoring is standard, and it includes exit warning. Standard front-collision warning adds pedestrian and cyclist detection with brake intervention. Driving Assistant Professional is available and adds speed limit assist, extended traffic-jam assistant, lane departure warning, and adaptive cruise control with stop & go.
• Infotainment: The BMW Curved Display combines a 10.7-inch infotainment screen and a 10.25-inch driver display. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included, and BMW’s Live Cockpit Plus is standard. Digital Cockpit Professional adds a full-colour head-up display and augmented reality navigation.
• Fuel efficiency: Natural Resources Canada rates it at 9.6 L/100 km in the city, 7.0 L/100 km on the highway, and 8.4 L/100 km combined.

Which 2023 BMW X1 trim should I buy?

The 2023 BMW X1 is offered in 1 trim level: xDrive28i.

Here's the short version:

The xDrive28i is the trim to focus on because it is the only one available for this model year, and it already gives you the core X1 formula: standard all-wheel drive, the 241-horsepower turbocharged engine, the BMW Curved Display, and the premium cabin feel that defines the vehicle. If you want more convenience and tech, the available packages add meaningful upgrades, but the base trim already captures the X1’s main strengths.

The safety package note to keep in mind is that active blind-spot monitoring is standard, while Driving Assistant Professional and the 360-degree surround-view camera are available rather than standard.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 BMW X1?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 32.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 258 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.60% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $34,711 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2023 BMW X1's resale value?

The current average of $34,711 CAD sits slightly below last year's $40,176 CAD.

That softer pricing can help you as a buyer now, but it also means a future seller may need to be realistic about where the market has settled. If prices remain near the current average, resale value will likely depend more on condition, mileage, and equipment than on broad market momentum.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2023 BMW X1 safe?

The 2023 BMW X1 earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Active blind-spot monitoring is standard, and it includes exit warning to help alert occupants to approaching hazards when opening the door. Standard front-collision warning also includes pedestrian and cyclist detection with brake intervention.

BMW’s Driving Assistant Professional is available and adds speed limit assist, extended traffic-jam assistant, lane departure warning, and adaptive cruise control with stop & go.

Should I buy a 2023 BMW X1 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 32.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.60% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.

The bottom line: If you want the newest X1 with the strongest mix of driving enjoyment, utility, and current-market pricing, the 2023 is the one to target. If your priority is stretching your budget further, a lower-priced used example with the right equipment may be the better path, especially if you can find one near the low end of the current range.
