BMW X1 Sales Figures

BMW X1

Here you will find monthly and yearly United States and Canadian sales figures for the BMW X1. Introduced in 2009 and sold in North America from the 2013 model year, the X1 is BMW’s entry point into the X range, a compact luxury crossover that switched from a rear-drive-based layout to a front-drive-based one with its second generation. The current third-generation car arrived for 2023 and is sold here exclusively with all-wheel drive, alongside the fully electric iX1 in other markets. Its rivals include the Audi Q3, Mercedes-Benz GLA and GLB, Volvo XC40, Lexus UX and Acura ADX.

BMW X1 Sales in the United States

The X1 arrived in the United States partway through 2012 and posted 26,512 units in its first full year, 2013. Volume settled in the 22,000 to 31,000 range for most of the following decade, peaking at 30,826 in 2017, with two sharp troughs that both line up with generation changeovers: 14,420 in 2015 and 7,104 in 2022, the weakest full year on the chart. The third-generation car reversed that immediately, lifting sales to 21,043 in 2023 and 27,308 in 2024, and 2025 essentially held that level at 27,155 units. The 2026 start is the strongest in the nameplate’s history: 15,018 units through June against 13,322 a year earlier, a gain of about 13 percent, with May’s 2,976 the best month since December 2024.

BMW X1 Sales in Canada

Canadian demand has been more volatile. The X1 opened at 2,980 units in 2011, dipped through the middle of the 2010s, then climbed to a peak of 6,120 in 2017. It fell away to 1,304 in 2022 during the changeover, the low point of the series, and rebounded hard to 4,773 in 2023. After easing to 3,915 in 2024, Canadian sales reached 5,698 in 2025, the second-best year the X1 has recorded here. The first half of 2026 has been softer, at 2,520 units against 3,619 in the same period of 2025, down about 30 percent, though the monthly trend has improved steadily from 294 in February to 567 in May.
