2026 BMW X1 PHEV launched; retails PHP 3.998M

BMW’s latest addition to its PHEV lineup is here.

SMC Asia Car Distributors Corp. has launched the 2026 BMW X1 xDrive25e M Sport, giving Philippine market buyers a taste of performance with the added benefit of emissions-free urban driving.

Visually, the M Sport variant sharpens the X1’s presence with the M Aerodynamics package, high-gloss Shadowline trim, and signature M light alloy wheels, giving the compact SAV a sportier edge.

Inside, the cabin is defined by BMW’s latest curved Widescreen Display running iDrive Operating System 9. The fully digital interface integrates infotainment and instrumentation in a seamless layout, emphasizing connectivity and ease of use. Premium touches include M Alcantara/Veganza upholstery, sport seats, and a Harman Kardon high-fidelity sound system, elevating both comfort and in-car entertainment.

Under the hood, the X1 xDrive25e M Sport pairs a turbocharged gasoline engine with an electric motor to produce a combined 245 PS and 477 Nm of torque. The result is a brisk 0 to 100 km/h time of 6.8 seconds. With its fourth-generation high-voltage battery, the X1 can travel up to 101 kilometers on pure electric power alone. When both power sources are utilized, total driving range stretches to a claimed 764 kilometers.

The X1 xDrive25e M Sport also comes equipped with BMW ConnectedDrive that enables BMW Live Maps with real-time traffic information and intelligent route calculation. The system aims to make daily navigation more intuitive while maximizing the benefits of electrified driving.

Available in limited introductory quantities, the 2026 BMW X1 xDrive25e M Sport retails for PHP 3,998,000. It is offered in six colors: Alpine White, Black Sapphire, Space Silver Metallic, M Portimão Blue Metallic, Cape York Green Metallic, and Fire Red Metallic.

BMW Philippines will showcase the model at Power Plant Mall in Rockwell Center, Makati City from February 20 to 22, 2026, where interested buyers can get a closer look.
