Posted 11 months agoThe BMW 1 Series first launched in 2004 as the brand’s most compact model, offering a more accessible entry point into the BMW line-up. Now in its fourth generation, it continues to deliver the brand’s core values of quality, performance and technology in a compact hatchback shape.
Positioned below the BMW 2 Series and 3 Series, the 1 Series is ideal for drivers who want a smaller car without sacrificing premium features. It offers the versatility of a hatchback with strong performance across the range, from the efficient 120 to the high-powered M135 xDrive.
- Body Type: Hatchback
- Fuel Type: Petrol
- Economy: Up to 53.0mpg (WLTP)
- Seats: 5

Our BMW 1 Series leasing deals include a choice of trim levels:
- Sport: The entry-level trim with 17-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, BMW Curved Display with Operating System 9, and full smartphone connectivity.

- M135 xDrive: The high-performance model with a 300hp engine, all-wheel drive, 19-inch alloys, M Sport differential, and an upgraded driver-focused cabin.
The BMW 1 Series offers two engine options. At the entry level, the 120 Sport uses a 1.5‑litre three‑cylinder turbo petrol engine producing around 156bhp and enabling a 0‑62 mph time of approximately 7.8 seconds.
For those seeking more performance, the 123 xDrive and the range‑topping M135 xDrive use a 2.0‑litre four‑cylinder turbo petrol, with the M135 delivering 300bhp, all‑wheel drive and a 0‑62 mph time in the region of 4.9 seconds.
The BMW 1 Series presents a confident and modern appearance, with a sharp front grille and slim LED headlights that give it a strong road presence. Sport models come with body‑colour bumpers and standard 17‑inch alloy wheels, while the M Sport trim adds 18‑inch or larger alloys, more aggressive styling and sport suspension.
Across the range you’ll find key convenience features including automatic high beams, rain‑sensing wipers and rear parking sensors.
Inside the BMW 1 Series you’ll find a modern, high‑quality cabin. The curved display, combining a digital driver’s instrument cluster and a central infotainment screen, sets a refined tone.
