The new BMW 1 Series was unveiled earlier today, marking the debut of the third generation of this popular model. The car boasts a completely new design, reflecting BMW’s commitment to innovation and excellence in automotive engineering.
Engine Options and Performance
There are a range of different engine options available for the new BMW 1 Series, catering to a variety of driving preferences and needs. The top-tier model in this lineup is the M135i, which is equipped with a powerful engine designed to deliver an exhilarating driving experience. This model can be seen in a new video that BMW has released, showcasing its impressive capabilities and sleek design.
The M135i features a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, which is the most powerful four-cylinder engine ever produced by BMW. It delivers 306 horsepower and 450 Nm of torque, allowing the car to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds. This performance is complemented by a sport-tuned suspension and advanced aerodynamics, ensuring that the M135i offers both speed and stability.
Innovative Technologies and Driving Dynamics
The new BMW 1 Series is equipped with cutting-edge chassis systems and innovative technologies that enhance its driving dynamics. The integration of all key driving dynamics components and control systems results in increased agility, which is evident in both the new front-wheel-drive configuration and the BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive system. This agility is a testament to BMW’s five-year development process, during which the company leveraged its extensive experience with front-wheel-drive technology in other models.
One of the standout features of the new 1 Series is the ARB (actuator contiguous wheel slip limitation) technology, which is derived from the BMW i3s. This system significantly improves traction and reduces understeer, providing a more responsive and enjoyable driving experience. Additionally, the car is equipped with BMW’s latest iDrive system, which includes a high-resolution display and intuitive controls for navigation, entertainment, and vehicle settings.
The interior of the new BMW 1 Series has also been redesigned to offer more space and comfort. The car features high-quality materials and finishes, as well as advanced connectivity options such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The rear seats offer increased legroom, making the 1 Series a practical choice for families and long-distance travelers.
Cutting-edge chassis systems and innovative technologies, plus the integration of all key driving dynamics components and control systems, imbue the BMW 1 Series with an increase in agility that drivers of cars with both the new front-wheel-drive configuration and BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive will clearly recognise. To this end, a five-year process of development has seen BMW channel all the experience amassed by the BMW Group over recent years with front-wheel-drive technology in other models into the new 1 Series. The result is a dynamic sharpness unprecedented in front-wheel-drive cars, with which it sets new standards in the premium compact class.
