Petrol or diesel, that is the choice

The X1 range is built around one decision. The sDrive18i pairs a 1.5 litre turbo petrol with 136 hp. The sDrive18d uses a 2.0 litre turbo diesel with 150 hp and a much stronger 360 Nm. Both drive the front wheels through a dual clutch automatic. The diesel feels punchier and travels further on a tank, while the petrol is quieter and cheaper to buy. See how the two engines line up.

How the two trims are equipped

Both variants wear the M Sport package, so the kit level is close. The roughly ₹2 Lakh gap between them mostly reflects the diesel engine, not extra features. Neither is a stripped base model, and both seat five with a 476 litre boot. Check the on road price for each in your city to see the real difference.
