2012 BMW 1 Series M Sport Package Details: Brand-new 2012 1-Series as the Bavarian automaker has already released an online configurator on its German website only two days after the hatchback model’s debut.
Meant to enhance the visual appearance of the regular 1 Series, the M Sport Package will include revised front and rear bumper, featuring larger air intakes, M-designed alloy wheels, sport seats and specially designed door panels, aluminum trim on the dashboard and door-sills and, of course, sports steering wheel, handbrake and gear levers, and pedals.
As a touch of unique M treatment, the chassis setup has been modified for a bit of sportiness, but the exact details of the modifications brought to the model are expected to be released in the coming days, so keep an eye out for the additional information regarding the M Sport Package for the newcomer.
The M Sport Package will be available throughout the 1 Series range, meaning that the customers will have a wide range of engines to choose from: 116i (1.6-liter 136 hp), 118i (1.6-liter 170 hp), and the three versions of the 2.0l diesel, with outputs of 116 hp, 143 hp and 184 hp. All engines can be paired to either a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic transmission.
The engines available for the model, especially the newly designed 1.6l one, will help BMW bring down the consumption levels of its new 1 Series. According to the manufacturer, the expected fuel economy of the model is 4.3 and 5.8 liters per 100 kilometers (40.6 and 54.7 mpg).

ReplyDeleteFirst off, I agree with people that this car isn't one of BMW's finest creations, not by a long shot. But, I'd like to highlight the engine from a perspective of engineering admiration. First the 123d beat the 100hp/litre barrier, and now this is taking it a step further by putting out 218bhp from a 2l diesel! -That's the same as the 3l diesel bmw used in the likes of the second generation X5 -That's 50bhp more than Volkswagen AG's most powerful 2.0l diesel (lazy buggers) -a current mk6 golf gti puts out 10hp less than this, from a boosted 2l petrol! I know there's the golf R, but nonetheless, it must give VW something to think about. I look forward to these engines reaching other BMW models, and tip my hat to BMW for continually pushing the boat further and further out, always pushing the boundaries in engine departments. Looking forward to the 3l diesel with 375hp - 125hp per litre - that's more per litre equivalently than a ferrari 458! from a diesel that will give 45mpg!
