Kidney Grille is larger and the character line is higher up.

This is render?

 

[klier]

This is render?

Yes and a poor one

 

[SCOTT27]

Reality.

 

[klugscheisser87]

Yes and a poor one

Exactly, the real thing will be mind blowing like its predecessor?

 

[dalab]

This is render?

Not exactly, it's a crappy render

Exactly, the real thing will be mind blowing like its predecessor

This car does not try to blow anyone's mind, there are more people on the planet than those who consume Lamborghinis

Reality.

It looks very promising in those photos despite the camouflage, the general appearance greatly improved, (within what it is as a type of vehicle)

 

[SCOTT27]

Active Tourer drops some disguise to reveal a far sharper front fascia with larger kidney grille compared to the outgoing model. In line with BMWs new sharper design ethos.

Interestingly, I think those kidneys give us an indication of the direction applied to the G70 7er.

Also seen in the new X1, that as "roof" on the bars seems to cooperate to give an interesting visual effect

There's a new one on the way? Why?

There's a new one on the way? Why?

It’s the best selling 2er model and is extremely popular. When introduced in 2014 they sold about 100,000 units within a year.
Surprisingly two categories define the Active Tourer customer. Those that want a spacious compact vehicle Active Tourer is thought of as a larger more spacious hatch. And those that have a BMW as their main driver Active Tourer is the secondary BMW for a family.

High conquest rate for customers new to the brand, I'd guess.

 

[SCOTT27]

High conquest rate for customers new to the brand, I'd guess.

Bingo!

 

[CrunchSlaughtered]

High conquest rate for customers new to the brand, I'd guess.

Yes, people in their mid 70 and older. After 20-25 years they may buy a 7er.

It was mostly sarcasm from my side because the current 1 is such a hideous looking thing.

But first impressions of this one seem to be positive. It's kinda like the B class where the first example was crap looking but the current one looks really good.

But let's not forget that these cars are like loaves of bread with wheels and are about practicality.

 

[klier]

BMW has no business making such a car, imo.

It's a matter of making some money while damaging the brand as a whole.

 

[SCOTT27]

We can see the outline of the headlights and the new interpretation of the character line.

 

[dalab]

Even with camo looks a lot nicer than the current

 

[klier]

That hood shutline half way up the hood is disastrous though. Like, WTF? But for the rest I agree, it looks excellent for what it is.

Yes, people in their mid 70 and older. After 20-25 years they may buy a 7er.

A coffin you mean....
