BMW Refreshes Locally Built iX1 LWB With New Blue Paint And Vegan‑Leather Interiors As Bookings Open

The model-year update emphasizes customization for India through a fresh colour and upholstery selection without any mechanical changes.

Overview

  • Nationwide bookings are open at BMW dealerships for the refreshed iX1 Long Wheelbase.
  • New Night Dusk Blue metallic joins Carbon Black, Mineral White and Skyscraper Grey, bringing the palette to four shades.
  • Interior options now include Veganza Smoke White + Atlas Grey dual-tone and Veganza Castanea with 3D stitching and a cocooning colour theme.
  • The carryover setup uses BMW’s fifth‑generation eDrive with 204 hp and 250 Nm, a 66.4 kWh battery and a claimed 531 km MIDC range.
  • BMW says the locally produced iX1 LWB is India’s highest-selling premium EV, aligning with its strategy of incremental India-focused updates such as a previously added 360-degree camera.
