[Mr Robert]

Not an LWB version with a Nepalese driver included?

If you forget about the obvious FWD proportions, it does not look bad at all.

This is suppose to preview the next gen 1er hatch isn´t it?

Yes. Underneath its styling is quite appropriate. Thank God it does not look like any of the above recent renders.

Too bad I can't...

same here.
the front, with the overhang, resembles the 2er AT/GT more than any other model. Not sure if it will look as proper as the A3 sedan.

I see an awful lot of camp on top of what is likely the top of the hood. Don't be fooled by the painted panel without the swirls. Also a lot of camp at the front of the car. It would not surprise me if this ends up being a lot more sleek and with significantly less overhang.

BMW 1 Series Sedan Rendering

BMW is developing 1 series sedan based on the next generation of the hatchback, which is expected to be debut in 2017. Now BMW 3 series is the entry level sedan from the company. BMW’s rivals Audi and Mercedes have already launched new entry level sedans and the market has shown good response for these models. The BMW 1 series sedan is codenamed as NES (New Entry-level Sedan).

NES = Nintendo Entertainment System
Next gen 1er sedan SNES?

Render looks horrible.

Yes it looks to condensed.

 

[JPATT93]

That is not the only problem with it. SCOTT27, will the styling be this predictable and uninspiring? If it looks anything remotely close to this, it will be a truly missed opportunity.

 

[Giannis]

Even if it turns out to be the most beautiful sedan Germany has ever produced, it will still be ruined by the absence of a differential between the rear wheels.

FWD sedan from BMW? No, thanks. End of story.

Yeah, a bold approach like the E46 Compact is long overdue and would be most welcome.

The German Alfa Romeo it was... seems like it will be once again.
I see a lovely looking Fiat/Alfa in the spy pics.

[Mr. Mercedes]

Proportions don't look as good as the A3 sedan.

 

[mini_cooper4]

I remember reading recently how the Hoffmeister kink accentuates on the RWD proportions of the car... maybe it's time to drop it.

Nah, they just need to relocate it to the A pillar
