How closely we watch the price

Every price here comes from evchu’s research file, last checked 3 Nov 2026. No price scraper watches this model yet.

Registered in Thailand

54 BMW iX1 were registered in Thailand in October 2026.

729 registered in total, across 14 months of official data from September 2025. The last 12 months account for 694.

Compared over 12-month windows, not month to month: Thai registrations are seasonal — January runs about twice an average month, because Motor Expo sales are registered then. Source: Department of Land Transport new-car registration statistics, matched by model to evchu’s catalogue.
