All models of the BMW 1 Series

BMW 1 Series (F40, since 2019)

The latest model in the BMW 1 Series is the F40, which has been in production since 2019. Located in the highly competitive compact car market, this model offers a wide range of equipment variants and drive options. One of the F40's greatest strengths is its revised chassis and steering geometry, which ensures significantly sportier handling. In addition, significant improvements in fuel efficiency have been achieved compared to its predecessor. Weaknesses - as is often the case with BMWs - can be found in the rather high purchase price and maintenance costs. Possible engine variants range from economical 3-cylinder diesel engines to powerful 4-cylinder petrol engines.

BMW 1 Series (F20/21, 2011 - 2019)

The second generation of the BMW 1 Series, known internally as the F20/21, was produced from 2011 to 2019. One feature of this series is the versatility of the available engines. In addition to various petrol and diesel variants, customers could also purchase a version with a plug-in hybrid drive. Attention was also paid to improved ergonomics and a higher quality feel in the interior. The main criticisms of this generation were the comparatively high weight and the stiff chassis set-up.

BMW 1 Series (E87/81/82/88, 2004 - 2013)

The first generation of the BMW 1 Series, which came onto the market with the E81 (three-door), E82 (coupé), E87 (five-door) and E88 (convertible) model series, was produced from 2004 to 2013. BMW set new standards in the compact class with the 1 Series. Many customers were particularly impressed by the sporty set-up, the rear-wheel drive and the variety of engines, ranging from economical four-cylinder engines to powerful six-cylinder units. BMW combined this with high-quality workmanship and the most advanced safety equipment at the time. Points of criticism included the comparatively high price and the limited space in the rear and trunk. While each series has its own strengths and weaknesses, the BMW 1 Series remains a sought-after series in the used car trade. Due to their quality and longevity, they offer dealers a high level of security for resold vehicles and are therefore an attractive option for the commercial trade.

History of the BMW 1 Series

With the launch of the BMW 1 Series in 2004, the traditional German company BMW successfully established itself in a new market segment. The BMW 1 Series, which was designed as a compact class, marked a significant expansion of the previous portfolio, which mainly consisted of mid-size and luxury class models.

First generation: 2004 - 2011

The first generation of the BMW 1 Series, also known as the E87, was launched on the market in 2004. With this vehicle, BMW re-entered the compact segment after almost four decades. The 1 Series was available in different body variants, including a three-door, a five-door and a coupé. With its sporty design and high-quality workmanship, the model series quickly won the hearts of many BMW enthusiasts.

Second generation: 2011 - 2019

With the second generation, the F20, the BMW 1 Series was fundamentally revised in 2011 and came onto the market as a five-door model. The three-door followed in 2013. With new engines and modern technology, the F20 underlined BMW's ambition to remain a leader in the premium compact car segment.

Third generation: since 2019

The third generation of the BMW 1 Series was presented in May 2019. With the internal code F40, the model replaced its predecessor. One of the most striking innovations was the switch from rear-wheel to front-wheel drive. BMW justified this step by improving the use of space in the interior. Right from the start, the BMW 1 Series impressed both the general public and specialist journalists. The sporty driving characteristics and the high quality of workmanship, which set the BMW 1 Series apart from many of its competitors in the compact car segment, were particularly emphasized. With its long history, the BMW 1 Series has proven that it is a mainstay of the Munich-based carmaker's model range and will remain so in the future.
