Leaving the plain saloons and entering the world of BMW is a pleasure for any consumer. Whether the car belongs to the low price range or an elite class luxury, the one who is buying a BMW brand will always expect much more even from a simple engineering. In BMW 1 series, the manufacturer has kept this point in mind and facelifted the car accordingly. From inside to outside, you will feel the presence of BMW makeup and technology in no matter what trim level it is. The driving is another characteristic that one can recognize the luxury of BMW cars with ease. No matter of what level saloon is purchasing, if it is a BMW, you are sure to get a touch of everything in limited or extended form whatever may be the model.
The vigorous engine range is what makes this class stands out among the small saloons. The petrol range sets off with a 1.5-Litre turbocharged three-cylinder engine which gives a reasonable performance.
Going up is the 2.0-Litre for those who want a little more fun from driving; this engine can meet your demand. Moving further up is a 3.0-Litre turbocharged six-cylinder engine which is a joy to ride. On the diesel side there is a 1.5-Litre engine for the start up and then there is a 2.0-Litre engine in 120d which is as quick as the more powerful 125d engine with 2.0 liter at the base but having more power generation.
Only one other brand that can provide the same driving comfort as BMW 1 series is the VW group. The ride of BMW 1 series is as comfortable as it can be of any luxury car. There is no compromise made in this respect and one can feel the BMW brand operating with all its power in the riding comfort.
The petrol engines are more refined in this class as compare to diesel that can make the car shudder at some points, but at high speeds, all becomes well. The handling and overtaking are a no problem for BMW cars and this series is not an exception. The six-speed manual gearbox is impressively quick and smooth and, the quick and neat optional 8-speed automatic gearbox is not less than falling in love with.
BMW 1 series is gaining popularity in China and its recent launch has provided something new in the market. The classy interior, compact size and fuel efficient engines with exciting power output have increased its market in the region. The car gives the feeling of owning an expensive car feel from inside and the drive that mostly the luxury saloons offer.
Who does not want an experience as perfect as this? There are only speculations about what this new launch will offer, and they will circulate like this until unless the car hits the market. But one thing is certain, that it will be no less than what the present car is offering.”
