ANCAP Safety Report (PDF)

The BMW X1 was introduced in Australia and New Zealand in July 2022, and the BMW iX1 was introduced from May 2023. This ANCAP safety rating applies to the battery electric iX1 and petrol X1 variants, excluding the X1 M35i xDrive M Sport Package Pro.

In order to confirm integrity of the battery and safety of the high voltage electrical systems of the iX1, additional frontal offset (MPDB), side impact, and oblique pole tests were conducted on the iX1.

Dual frontal, side chest-protecting and side head-protecting airbags are standard. A centre airbag which provides added protection to front seat occupants in side impact crashes is also standard.

Autonomous emergency braking (Car-to-Car, Vulnerable Road User, Junction Assist and Backover) as well as a lane support system with lane keep assist (LKA), lane departure warning (LDW) and emergency lane keeping (ELK) and an advanced speed assistance system (SAS) are standard equipment.
