Where is the 2017 BMW X1 xDrive28i battery location?

I’ve driven an older version of the X1 and just bought a used 2017 X1. But the battery in this car isn’t in the same location as the previous model. Am I going crazy? Where is the 2017 BMW X1 xDrive28i battery location?

The 2017 BMW X1 xDrive28i battery location is just behind the engine, hidden beneath several other structural elements.
The newest generation of the X1 came with a new battery location. Instead of its previous location in the rear of the car, the new X1’s battery is located in the front.
Accessing the X1’s battery is pretty tricky—and the battery is located directly next to a precarious electrical system. If you need to replace the battery, it’s wise to get professional assistance.
