UKL Front wheel drive, check.

Lack of a manual, check.

It’s in Mexico right now but it’s just a matter of time they will start crawling all over and jumping curbs in malls in Canada... I’m sure.

(I do kinda want the 18i 3-cylinder engine, though.)

In case of Kinja.

It's not like most owners will know the driven wheels anyways.

As sad as it is to see the RWD 1 Series go, this isn’t actually that bad looking of a car. Although I have no idea who in their right mind would go for a 2 over the absolutely fantastic looking (especially on the inside) A-Class.

Even in sedan form, the A i s a much better looking car.

rwd 1 series pretty much became the 2 series anyways

That’s nice to see BMW making the Dodge Dart.  They must’ve bought the rights from FCA.

Their market for this cares about one thing only: the badge

I don’t have a problem with FWD cars.

BMW surveyed 1 Series owners and 80% thought they were FWD anyway.

2 series Gran Coupe

2 series Active Tourer

2 series Gran Tourer

X2 Sports Activity Coupe

Is this more or less the same platform as F56 MINIs? I seem to remember part of the reason for the Kermit nose on F56 was to accommodate extra length for a platform BMW was planning to share.

Aside from the Gran Coupe... they’re all real products.

And the Gran Coupe was spied testing, so it's happening.
