BMW 1 Series Spy Video

The car is scheduled to reach dealerships in 2011 and will usher in a wave of changes for the company. If all goes according to plan the 1 Series should become BMW’s big volume seller and overtake the 3 Series.

The 1 Series is the only vehicle in its class featuring rear-wheel drive, 50:50 weight balance, a longitudinally-mounted engine and an advanced aluminum multilink suspension. It is currently BMW’s second best-selling automobile, accounting for nearly one-fifth of the total sales in 2008.
