CarGurus Analysis: 2016 BMW X1
overall

Summary
With 579 currently listed for sale and an average price of $11,611, 33.9% of 2016 BMW X1s for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2016 BMW X1 4.67 / 5 stars and CarGurus experts gave it a 7 / 10.
60.8% of 2016 X1 models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2016 BMW X1 stands out because it is the first BMW to be based on a front-wheel-drive platform, yet it still drives so well that you would never know. Redesigned for 2016, it arrives at a time when compact luxury SUV sales are surging, giving BMW a timely entry in a fast-growing segment.
That combination of fresh packaging and familiar driving polish is the X1’s main appeal. It offers the practicality buyers want from a small luxury SUV while preserving the kind of road manners that help it feel more like a BMW than its platform might suggest. At the same time, the source frames its appeal with a caveat: it is worth attention, but only to a point.

BMW’s really weren’t on my radar. But once I read the reliability ratings and the added peace of mind of an affordable extended warranty offered by the dealership, I took a chance. So far, I’m not disappointed. Quick little SUV, good power and superb fuel economy

This was my wife’s car and she loved it. The look, the size, the utility. This came equipped with tech package and it’s now a must have feature; especially heads up navigation. She has just ordered the same car as a 2021 model and we look forward to Apple Car Play.

Is the 2016 BMW X1 a good car?
Yes — 4.67/5 from owners, and the expert rating is 7.00/10. The model scores 8/10 across Look and feel and Performance.
The 2016 X1’s appeal is rooted in its redesigned packaging and driving polish: it gives you the practicality of a compact luxury SUV while still feeling like a BMW from behind the wheel. It arrives as compact luxury SUV demand is rising, so it fits a segment where buyers want both utility and a premium driving experience.
The market also shows 35.0% of listings priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.
Is the 2016 BMW X1 reliable?
Owners rate it 4.67/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The 2016 X1 is presented as a well-executed redesign that keeps BMW’s familiar road manners while moving to a new platform, which supports confidence in how it should hold up as a used buy. The expert review also emphasizes that it feels sprightly, smooth, and responsive once warmed up, with strong brake feel and a well-damped ride.
Its performance notes point to a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and an 8-speed automatic that work together cleanly, and the review highlights that the transmission is smart enough that you won’t miss paddle shifters. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is less about the core hardware and more about choosing a well-maintained example with the right options and condition.
What should I look for when buying a used 2016 BMW X1?
At 60.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has higher mileage or a long option list. Focus on body condition, signs of prior repair, tire wear, brake feel, and whether the electronics and driver-assistance features work as expected.
Key things to evaluate:
- Trim level: The X1 is described as a proper luxury SUV with clean exterior styling, a minimal BMW interior, soft-touch lower dashboard panels, and optional stitched brown leather trim; the base setup is notably sparse, with many comfort items reserved for options.
- Powertrain: It uses a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder with 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic and standard all-wheel drive.
- Safety package: The car includes lane-departure warning, forward-collision alert, and auto braking with pedestrian detection; adaptive cruise control is available, while blind-spot monitoring and lane-keeping assist are not.

Which 2016 BMW X1 trim should I buy?
The 2016 BMW X1 is offered in 1 trim level: xDrive28i.
Here's the short version:
The xDrive28i: This is the only trim, so your decision is really about options rather than trim stepping. It gives you the core X1 formula: the turbocharged four-cylinder, standard AWD, strong driving dynamics, and the clean BMW cabin layout. If you want the best balance of capability and value, this is the one to target, then shop carefully for the option packages that matter most to you.
The safety package note is straightforward: the X1 includes lane-departure warning, forward-collision alert, and auto braking with pedestrian detection, but blind-spot monitoring and lane-keeping assist are not included.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2016 BMW X1?
This is a moderate, selective-buyer market, so you can shop with some leverage if you’re patient.
- Deal availability: 35.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 577 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 5.42% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 60.3% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $11,469, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2016 BMW X1's resale value?
The current average of $11,615 sits slightly below last year's $12,280.
That tells you the market has eased, which can help you buy more confidently now, but it also means a future seller may need to price competitively to move the car. The current range suggests the X1 still has a defined value band, so condition and equipment will matter when it comes time to resell.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.67/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Is the 2016 BMW X1 safe?
The 2016 BMW X1 earns a Top Safety Pick+ rating from IIHS.
It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.
The X1 includes lane-departure warning, forward-collision alert, and auto braking with pedestrian detection, and adaptive cruise control is available. The review also notes that blind-spot monitoring and lane-keeping assist are not included.
A key strength here is the IIHS result: the X1 achieved Good scores in all five crashworthiness tests and earned a front crash prevention rating of Advanced or Superior. That makes it a strong safety pick, especially if you find one equipped with the available driver-assistance features.
Should I buy a 2016 BMW X1 or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2016 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2016 if:
- 35.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 60.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 5.42% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.67/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
- The 2016 X1 is a redesigned model that brings a more polished luxury-SUV feel while still driving with the kind of balance BMW buyers expect.
The bottom line: If you want the redesigned X1’s blend of utility, premium feel, and strong driving manners, the 2016 is the right target. If you’re shopping mainly on price, you can still find value here, but you should be selective about condition and equipment because many desirable features were optional.
