BMW Series 1: The family is growing

The Series now offers two options at body level 1 BMW strengthens its presence in the premium category of small and medium hatchbacks, meeting the requirements of both those who seek the practicality of the 5-door body and those who prefer the dynamism of a 3-door.

At the same time a strong paper of the German proposal is the very wide range of petrol and diesel engines of TwinPower technology with variable geometry supercharging, direct spray which exploits the advantages of the Efficient Dynamics philosophy, which optimizes the energy utilization of all car subsystems, combine high efficiency with fuel economy and low emissions.

At the level of gasoline engines, the basic version of the BMW Series 1 is the new 114i which is driven by the supercharger 1.6 TwinPower with 102 horsepower while more powerful versions of the same engine with 136 and 170 horses are housed under the hood of the 116i and 118i respectively.

More sporty and driver-centric profile but also more emphasis on performance are given by the larger versions and more specifically the 125i with the two-liter TwinPower that for the occasion will deliver 218 horsepower while the top version will be the M 135i which is the first petrol proposal of the M Performance family which was created to fill the gap between the conventional versions and the purebred M.

Among the upgrades bearing the signature of section M, The M 135i has a suspension with different geometry and individual settings, harder damping characteristics and lower by 10 mm. height while the three-liter six-cylinder Twin Power housed under the hood now reaches 320 horsepower (from the 306 of the simple version) thanks to the improved cooling system and different mapping.

In everything,In terms of diesel versions, the smaller 116d EfficientDynamics with TwinPower engine is of particular interest 1.6 liter 116 horses with an average consumption of 3.8 liters / 100km. and emissions just 99 gr / km.

Beyond that the larger two-liter TwinPower diesel engine in various performance versions is responsible for driving the rest of the versions.

Specifically at 116d and 118d it performs respectively 116 and 143 horses while at the larger 120d and 125d it reaches them 184 and 218 horses respectively.

Important innovation for the Series 1 is the adoption for the first time in the history of the BMW xDrive all-wheel drive model which through electronically controlled power distribution between the front and rear axle ensures maximum traction depending on road conditions.

The xDrive system will be offered in both the five-door and the three-door Series 1 in the 120d version but also the M135i which thanks to the advantage of the upgraded traction and the optimization of the transfer of power on the road offers even more explosive performance compared to the rear-wheel drive version such as the just 4,7 δλ. needed for 0-100 km / h (rear-wheel drive 4,9 δλ.) with standard automatic sports gearbox 8 relations.
