Next generation BMW 1 Series - Rendering

Huckfeldt, at Auto Bild and his BMW 135i SuperSports car rendering has inspired other auto publications as well. As much as the rendering has been criticized, several sources I have asked, confirmed that he is on the right track.

BMW will move away from the blend, boring look of its compact cars and will try something more adventurous with the new 1 Series. I know that many of us cannot imagine or accept a BMW to take this new shape, but….we’re moving forward and new car designs will emerge.

Louis Vuitton Pacific Series - Upsets aplenty on Day 3 - Sail World

01.02.09


Racing is continuing in the Louis Vuitton Pacific Series on the Waitemata harbour.

Grey skies and a light southwesterly gave way to an increasing breeze from the same direction. Around midday the skies began to clear and the third race between China Team and BMW Oracle Racing was conducted in beautiful sailing condition, with a 15kt breeze.

China Team, skippered by world match racing champion, Ian Williams, was as aggressive as usual in the start and picked up a penalty. At gunfire, there was a split tack start with Williams getting away on the pin end.

Coutts crossed and covered and this was the story of the race, until halfway down the last run when Williams started to build an attack on Coutts. Sailing in more pressure and noticeably faster, China Team's spinnaker split and it was race over.

In the other matches, Team Origin had a good win over Alinghi after the America's Cup holder was forced over the start line in an uncharacteristic

I would love to purchase the BMW 1 series but I want to know my options. What are the alternatives to this car

Jun 03, 2008 by Tru | Posted in BMW

I have been trying to research for alternatives but nothing really popped up. The gas thing is also another issue and thats why I am having second thoughts with the BMW 1 series.

There aren't many rear wheel drive cars in that price range. BMW has a unique combination of luxury and performance.

Closest I can think of would be an RX-8. The RX-8 has fantastic handling along with a usable rear seat. If you are worried about gas, you don't want an RX-8. EPA for the RX-8 is 16/22.

EPA for the 128i is 18/28. Much better.

I wouldn't consider the Mustang (no handling) or the Evo MR (no comfort) as direct alternatives. One magazine reviewer said "The Evo is just like a 135i with less sound-deadening material and its suspension completely welded together."


Have you looked at Mini? EPA for a Clubman S is 26/34!

Mini is not directly comparable to a 128i. I've driven both and they just aren't the same. BUT look at the gas mileage.

If you are going to start looking at front wheel drive cars, the Mini should be at the top of your list. Also take a look at the Audi A3.

Why BMW 1 Series is the only one using rear wheel drive among the whole BMW lines ?

Jul 11, 2007 by Alezander Wong Ken Wei | Posted in BMW

I thought rear wheel drive cars are only for racing and performance car ? But why, just the BMW 1 Series is using RWD, but the other series didn't use ? All series like 3,5,6,7 are much more better and need more performance than 1 Series, right ? But why 1 Series is the one only using it, since it is the cheapest among them ? I am so confused...By the way, may i know, Audi A3 and BMW 1 Series which one is cheaper ?
OMG...check this out, it written, 1 Series is the only one with RWD engine ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_1_Series

All BMW are RWD rear wheel drive except the X which is all wheel drive. What the articale is refer to is the BMW1 is the only RWD in its "class." Meaning compared to other small cars such as the Golf, AUDI A3, Mazda 3, etc. Not other BMWs. It is the only small car with a inline mounted engine. The Golf etc are FWD front Wheel Drive with transverse mounted engines.

How much will the new BMW 1 series cost?
The new BMW 1 series is supposed to me affordable but how affordable? with leather interior, automatic, sunroof moonroof. aproximation please

I work at a BMW dealership and we don't even have the prices for them yet. The 138 is supposed to start out in the low 30's though. But we don't even have that in writing yet, we are still guessing.
