Article Summary The new X1 Long Wheelbase expands BMW India’s stretched SUV lineup beyond the all-electric iX1 LWB. Long-wheelbase models accounted for more than half of BMW’s India sales in the first half of 2026. The automaker has officially opened pre-launch bookings for the new BMW X1 Long Wheelbase ahead of a scheduled full debut on August 21, 2026. BMW produces the new X1 LWB locally at BMW Group Plant Chennai. That distinction belongs to the all-electric iX1 Long Wheelbase, which debuted at Auto Expo 2025 as the “BMW X1 Long Wheelbase All Electric.”
