A high-tech family hatchback that dazzles and entertains, the BMW 1 Series oozes class going toe to toe with the likes of the Mercedes-Benz A-Class and Audi A3. It's arguably one of the more modern vehicles in its class, with the latest generation of the 1 Series sporting a major engineering and cabin overhaul, as well as vast improvements as far as usability goes. If you're torn between the 1 Series and its luxury rivals, you're likely to appreciate the extra cargo space, as well as a sporty dynamic and bombastic styling.
Starting prices for the BMW 1 Series begin at $46,990, which is enough to land you the 118i M Sport. At the dearer price of $69,990, BMW sells the M135i XDrive, which is the top-spec model in the BMW 1 Series. These prices are based on the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price, and should only be treated as a rough guide since they do not include optional extras as well as on-road costs.
Perhaps you heard the BMW 1 Series has been discontinued, but you'll be relieved to know that is certainly not the case! The 1 Series is the entry-level range in the BMW suite of cars, albeit with some adjustments in recent years. Whereas the first generation of the BMW 1 Series was available in hatchback, coupe and convertible formats, the German auto-maker decided in 2014 that it would spin-off the coupe and convertible models under a new banner, marketed as the 2 Series.
The BMW 1 Series, now in its second generation, comprises a suite of compact, executive level sports hatchbacks. Available in petrol or diesel, each vehicle in this nimble range is sure to get your pulse racing courtesy of their fierce acceleration, sharp handling and impeccable balance. The BMW 1 Series sets itself apart from other hatchbacks by incorporating rear-wheel drive and a longitudinally mounted engine. From every angle, each of the variants in the BMW 1 Series range glimmer in beauty, with their interiors modelled on their dearer bigger brothers. You can rest assured that BMW has pulled out all the stops to include as many features as possible at this modest price point, ensuring value is the order of the day. If you want to add a little extra glamour to the experience there’s also no shortage of upgrades on offer, with BMW catering for the sports-enthused driver whom might be fond of variable steering, sports suspension, high-spec brakes and a suite of other luxuries. As a competitor to the Audi A3 Sportback and Mercedes-Benz A-Class, BMW has crafted a smooth, efficient and elegant car that remains one of the few rear-wheel drive hatchbacks in the entire market.
As an added challenge, all of the inspections are taking place in tiny, one-way inner-city streets with limited parking. Oh, and the traffic is terrible. A logistical nightmare, yes, but also the perfect proving ground for BMW’s new-generation 118i – the more affordable member of the 1 Series family and the smallest hatch on offer from the German carmaker. ...
When the iPhone first appeared just over a decade ago, I can remember thinking a phone without buttons would be a giant pain in the neck. Until I used one, and now the idea of a keypad phone sounds akin to starting a car with a crank handle. The new 1 Series is likely to offer most buyers a similar revelation, with its move from the BMW-traditional rear-driv...
A reality check before we start: Are you reading this review prepared to pile on the new BMW 1 Series because its engine is mounted sideways in the engine bay? Do you think every 1 Series variant should be an M-fettled BMW M140i? Sorry, might as well say it right now: this car is not for you. Nor is the review. BMW has essentially admitted it will forsake th...
The 2020 BMW 1 Series is more than just an all-new model, it’s the company’s first conventional hatchback. The first two generations of BMW 1 Series – from 2004 to 2011 and then from 2011 to 2019 – were rear-wheel drive and unique to the rest of the class. The 2020 BMW 1 Series marks the first time the company has adopted front-wheel drive and all-wheel driv...
This is a very nice small car. Exactly what I wanted. Took it for a 3K round trip from Sydney to Broken Hill and it was comfortable and responsive.

BMW diehards were never going to be excited by the third-generation BMW 1 Series, given the switch from a rear-wheel drive chassis to a ubiquitous front-wheel drive setup. After all, it was BMW’s unique selling point in the entry-level luxury segment, one that held it head and shoulders above the rest in the eyes of keen drivers. But if we push enthusiasts a...
