BMW will add a new plug-in hybrid to its line-up next year, likely to be called the X1 xDrive30e, which will use a 2.0 litre four-cylinder engine. A 0-62mph time of less than seven seconds is possible, with a top speed of around 130mph. For comparison, the current range-topping X1 xDrive25d diesel will get to 62mph in 6.6 seconds. The X1's petrol engine has been replaced by an electric motor and battery pack that can provide up to 100 miles per charge.
