2024 BMW X1 versus 2024 BMW X3. Which one to buy?

[@martinschwartz7342]

I am 6'5" and I found the X3 has inadequate legroom while the X1 was good. The X3 has better hip and shoulder room. I can deal with a little narrower seating but I can't deal with not enough legroom.

[@VagabondBuilds]

Typically for us tall people, we need leg room!! Haha thanks for the perspective!

[@victorjohnson2093]

I like the seats in the X3 other than that I like the X1. Great Footage

[@VagabondBuilds]

Thanks for you input and glad we can be of help!

[@MrRonnmaui]

I have the X1 and wish it had the X3 tail pipes and the cognac interior.

[@VagabondBuilds]

You know what they say, you can’t have everything haha

[@lsjionredlinesupercharged2049]

I went in for the x1 left with a loaded x3 2021 love it love the maintenance package as well❤❤

[@VagabondBuilds]

Nice!

[@islandknight6105]

With a new update 2025 X3 coming out at any day now, I wouldn’t pull the trigger on a 2024 X3 right now! 😳

[@VagabondBuilds]

I would have to agree. I’m curious to see it in person.

[@kimseyee]

@@VagabondBuilds when will the x3 2025 model arrive ?

[@stevejohnson2108]

Exactly. I would like a comparison of the new 2025 X3 3.0i and the 2025 X1 M35i.

[@heytibby]

germans make shitty cars. You want good engineering buy toyota.

[@PaigeDanielleN]

I love the x1’s front grill, the x3 needs to look like that! The interior choices in the x3 are unbeatable though. Trying to pick between the 2 right now. Choices and decisions 🙃

[@revnation_auto]

I have 76cu.ft. in our CR-V & 38mpg. X3 needs to step it up with size and efficiency. Love the cognac interior though.

[@VagabondBuilds]

Well true, but in general the European SUVs do tend to run a bit smaller. But the bells and whistles are so much more high end.

[@cscramaglia6993]

Luv the X1 - not so big - yet has almost all the upgrades like the x3 which offers only a few differences. I had a 440 I GC just ordered a m 235 should arrive any day - wish I had the the X1. Oh well?!

[@VagabondBuilds]

Thank you for your perspective! Order that one also?? Haha

X3 I say. They just came out with the new ones. Check out our videos.

[@PaigeDanielleN]

@ the dealership near me only has the 2024 version I guess they’re trying to push those out before getting the 2025 version, they do have the X1 in 2025 though! I’m sure it won’t be long, may wait it out. Love the dash on the 2015 versions.

[@VagabondBuilds]

I have one of those, the 2015. But these new 2025 are something else. We just released a video with M50i. Crazy machine

[@melissastrickland9494]

I have an X1 and absolutely love it!

[@PaigeDanielleN]

@ I JUST got one Saturday, in the deepest love I’ve ever been in! WOW! ❤️❤️❤️

[@Ntsako6-x9t]

Estimated installment for x1?

[@VagabondBuilds]

See msrp sticker

[@RajaSekar-USA]

Both looks identical. May be new launch model x3 will be bigger.

[@VagabondBuilds]

We are waiting for exactly that. We will see.

[@m4st3rm1nd9]

Where is the spare tire in x3?

[@VagabondBuilds]

Should be under the rear Matt.

[@m4st3rm1nd9]

​@@VagabondBuilds7:47 you sure?

[@Jeff4now]

Comes with run flat tires, no spare.💩

[@charlieclark983]

You've already had enough coffee

[@VagabondBuilds]

Why ??? Haha

[@austinsmith64]

I went from a 2022 bmw x3 to a 2024 bmw x1 and a month later went back and got a 2024 x3. I hated the x1 - the size the drive and the new tech are awful

[@VagabondBuilds]

Wow… I gotcha. I would say that bigger is nice when it comes to cars.

[@larryfuqua7621]

You will regret making this trade when the 2025 X3 comes out in a few months. I owned a 2018 X3 which looks the same as the 2024. BMWs tend to look the same for about 6 years.

[@melissastrickland9494]

I have an x1 and wouldn’t trade it for anything! I was able to custom order from Germany (with the wood 😀). I got it decked out, so it was pricier than the $45k, but it is exactly what I wanted. I mostly ride in it alone to and from work in the mountains of western NC, so space is not a big issue for me, and it has plenty of cargo space for a grocery haul-and with two teenagers I buy ALOT of groceries at one time. We have a 4Runner for anything we do with the whole family, but space isn’t an issue when I drive my kids (one is 6’1”). I love the way it zooms around our curvy mountain roads, and the tech screen is fabulous. I also have the heads up display, which is a great help. I have been wondering if I should go up to the x3, but after seeing this, I just don’t see the upside.

[@VagabondBuilds]

I hear ya. Check out our video with the updated x3 video. This is the older style. But thanks for the heads up on how much you like it.

[@StrykerBeats]

X3 has a much better quality interior. The headrests in the X1 are like half the thickness, and it feels cheap on the interior (the center console 🤮). The drive on the X3 is much better also, I have driven both and own a 2024 X3 currently.

[@VagabondBuilds]

Agreed… we shall see the new x3

[@HoldthisL257]

Very stupid to compare the materials of a entry level vehicle to another vehicle that's an extra 15k.

[@StrykerBeats]

@@HoldthisL257 very stupid to make a stupid comment on someone’s opinion 🤔 This was the M35i and not the entry level for the X1.

[@HoldthisL257]

@@StrykerBeats Learn English then…because you phrased your comment as fact. Also you’re paying for the engine in a M35i not “better quality” interior…which is again a dumb comment because the interior is not cheap at all…anyone who shops luxury (or understands business) knows the proposition of a entry level vehicle. If you wanted “nicer” interior then you pay the price…Also you clearly know nothing about cars because the X3 and X1 are made from the SAME materials so what are you even talking about?

[@StrykerBeats]

Nice 👍🏼

thank you

Glad we can help honestly!

[@sunnybuns2008]

I love my 24 x3 30i went from a 24 rdx aspec bmw blows it away the new x3 for 2025 im not crazy about

[@VagabondBuilds]

I mean, I would say they are two different cars.

[@grustyn]

Well done comparison! I love the new screen and steering wheel in the x1, but the overall quality seems to be better in the x3 (maybe it's just my impression). I don't know how BMW can come up with such ugly wheels for a car like this, though. Shameful. Great content! 👊

[@VagabondBuilds]

Thank you!

[@vineelsai111]

X1 looks huge than x3

[@VagabondBuilds]

X3 is bigger

[@amrknu]

Now compare the X1 with the new 2025 X3

[@VagabondBuilds]

We will try to get our hands on it!

not worth 10K except the seat and seat color
