In the Uk we get a 123 which is xdrive and has MHT and gets to 60 in 6.3 seconds so not much slower than the 128i, it is down on power 218 bhp but sounds like a good mid range alternative. Of course in Australia they may introduce 128i or something similiar.
FWD BMWs are not what we love about the brand. If I wanted a front-wheel drive car, I would choose a proper one like the Fiesta ST. And if I were looking for a FWD-based AWD vehicle, I’d go for the VW Golf R. The F22 with a manual transmission is far superior to this grocery cart
The price is outragous, especially because there is still a good few cars in this segment that offer similar or better performance for 20-40k cheaper, ok its not a new car, but really who buys new unless you're part of the 5%
Interior quality is a downgrade on the previous gen apart from nicer graphics on the screens. Exterior is a grower when seen in person. A bit like the F40 too
M135 90k 😂 looks like a 50k car Do you know how many car options you can buy with that money? plasticky inside, looks like they are saving money on material is not worth it!
“A little bit more expensive”, $30K is a little bit apparently
Congrats, BMW. Your cars now look just like any Kias and Skodas. Great work!
I for one think BMW now looks like Kia copy…..
The new Ford (Focus) generation BMW
Mercedes is the better looking imo
90 grand for a 1 series. Gotta be really rich
And stupid!
Or silly
Owned from new 2 M140i's, 1 M2, 1 M2Comp and a M3 Comp. There's no way this car is worth north of $92k
I love my 128ti. Have you guys got the 123 Xdrive variant over there? It’s only recently arrived here in the UK. It has circa 200hp
Chasing cars out of touch with car costs
Chasing Cars really needed that BMW cheque.
Come on mate, so many excuses. This car is expensive as hell, looks like Ford(nothing against Ford) and seems to be boring

So what's this got over a GTI Golf or I30 N?
a shot where we could see inside the boot would have been appreciated.
Go for the M135 S3 comparison test!!
Great looking hatchback… ❤
Nice ford fiesta…
This New Kia Ceed is quite good 👍

No "pops and bangs"? Good, they're artificial and childish

More expensive, slower, less torque, FWD and looks like a KIA Cerato, where do I sign? /s
Civic Type R at 74k is a much, much better drivers car than this thing.
Doesn’t look like a bmw at all. Specially with that weird front grill.
Looks like crap and IS 80K FOOKING GRAND!!!!!!!!
GTFO BMW, I'm off to buy an i30N

is not worth it!
$92k, mad....
good grief. BMW makes a Corolla/Subaru.....
Looks shite. I had a 2014 m135i and that looked so much better…
Complete and utter crap car. Ugly, fwd, 4 cylinder. F that big times.
It’s so hideous!
For that money you can get a really low kay M340i or M240i with the mighty B58.. I know which way I'd go..
