SMC Asia Car Distributors Corp., the official importer and distributor of BMW vehicles in the Philippines, has expanded the trim options for the X1 xDrive25e plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) with the introduction of the xLine variant. As a review, BMW Philippines introduced the X1 xDrive 25e M Sport PHEV last February.
The xLine is BMW’s trim option or styling package that intends to offer design trims that add a rugged appeal to the vehicle.

It is fitted with a more aggressive-looking front bumper that features black and silver trims.
The fender flares are also integrated with a black and silver trim, which is also seen on the X1 xLine’s side profile. The rear, on the other hand, features a more rugged-looking bumper as compared to the X1 xDrive 253 M Sport. The BMW X1 xDrive25e xLine trim’s exterior is finished with a set of 18-inch alloy wheels.
Inside, it is equipped with BMW Live Cockpit Plus, featuring a 10.25-inch instrument cluster and a 10.7-inch widescreen display powered by the brand’s latest iDrive Operating System 9. BMW PH said that it also comes with BMW ConnectedDrive Services, as well as Veganza perforated black upholstery, sport seats for the driver and front passenger, and wireless smartphone charging.
The X1 xDrive25e xLine also has BMW Driving Assistant as standard, and features tech such as Collision and Lane Change Warning systems, Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Crossing Traffic Warning, Parking Assistant, and Active Park Distance Control, among others.

Autocar’s Take
BMW Philippines has expanded the trim options for the X1 xDrive25e with the introduction of the xLine design package, which retails at P3,398,000. While it still comes with the same power output as its M Sport sibling, the xLine trim further provides more options for potential X1 clients in the Philippines.
As mentioned earlier, the xLine BMW’s trim option or styling package that intends to offer design trims that add a rugged appeal to the vehicle. That said, the X1 xDrive25e xLine is integrated with a different exterior design package that features a more aggressive finish, complemented by black and silver accents.
