BMW Opens X1 Long Wheelbase Bookings in India
BMW is a car company that makes nicer, more expensive cars.
One of its smaller cars is an SUV called the X1.
Now BMW has made a longer version of that SUV, called the X1 Long Wheelbase.
A longer car means there is more room inside for passengers and things.
BMW has started letting people in India reserve this new car.
You can book it at a BMW dealership or on BMW's website.
The car will be built in Chennai, a city in India.
People will be able to get the car starting August 21.
BMW has not said yet how much the car will cost.
The car is bigger than similar SUVs from Audi and Mercedes-Benz, so more space might attract buyers.
BMW India has opened bookings for the X1 Long Wheelbase (LWB), a stretched version of its entry-level SUV.
The X1 LWB will be locally assembled at BMW's Chennai plant in India.
The SUV is scheduled to launch in India on August 21.
The X1 LWB currently has no direct rival in India, giving it a size advantage over the Audi Q3 and Mercedes-Benz GLA.
Pricing has not yet been disclosed; bookings are open through BMW's authorized dealer network and its website.
