The second generation of the BMW 1 Series consists of the BMW F20 (5-door hatchback) and BMW F21 (3-door hatchback) subcompact cars. The F20\/F21 generation was produced by BMW from 2011 to 2019 and is often collectively referred to as the F20.<\/p>\n
For the second generation of 1 Series, the coup\u00e9 and convertible models marketed separately using the new BMW 2 Series nameplate.<\/p>\n
The F20\/F21 was initially powered by inline-four petrol, inline-four diesel and inline-six petrol engines. In 2015, inline-three petrol and diesel engines were added to the model range. All engines are turbocharged.<\/p>\n
Unlike most hatchback competitors, the F20\/F21 uses a rear-wheel drive (rather than front-wheel drive) for most models. The F20\/F21 is the first 1 Series to offer an optional all-wheel drive (called “xDrive” by BMW).<\/p>\n
In July 2019, the BMW 1 Series (F40) began production as the successor to the F20.<\/p>\n
The vehicle was unveiled at the Auto Mobil International Leipzig 2012. The exterior styling was overseen by Nicolas Huet.<\/p>\n
The launch models consisted of the petrol-engined 114i, 116i, 125i and M135i models, and the diesel-engined 114d, 116d, 116d EfficientDynamics Edition, 118d and 125d models. The inline-six M135i model was unveiled in the 3-door body style at the 2012 Geneva International Motor Show. From 2016, the M140i replaced the M135i, with same engine and options as F20.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":24059,"template":"","vehica_23442":[2480],"vehica_6659":[2533],"vehica_6660":[2817],"vehica_6655":[2344],"vehica_23443":[2495],"vehica_23545":[2508],"vehica_6670":[2483,2484],"vehica_23445":[2556,2598],"vehica_23531":[2497],"class_list":["post-24058","vehica_car","type-vehica_car","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","vehica_23442-assetto-corsa","vehica_6659-bmw","vehica_6660-serie-1","vehica_6655-hatchback","vehica_23443-traseira-rwd","vehica_23545-manual","vehica_6670-abs","vehica_6670-controle-de-tracao","vehica_23445-101creative","vehica_23445-vrdriving","vehica_23531-street"],"acf":[],"vehica_14696":"2013","vehica_23444":"320","vehica_23446":"457","vehica_23447":"1425","vehica_23448":"4.45","vehica_23449":"5.1","vehica_23534":"1","vehica_23455":"11","vehica_23456":["https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/preview-90.jpg"],"vehica_28233":"","vehica_28602":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cars\/24058","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cars"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/vehica_car"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24059"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24058"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"vehica_23442","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vehica_23442?post=24058"},{"taxonomy":"vehica_6659","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vehica_6659?post=24058"},{"taxonomy":"vehica_6660","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vehica_6660?post=24058"},{"taxonomy":"vehica_6655","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vehica_6655?post=24058"},{"taxonomy":"vehica_23443","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vehica_23443?post=24058"},{"taxonomy":"vehica_23545","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vehica_23545?post=24058"},{"taxonomy":"vehica_6670","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vehica_6670?post=24058"},{"taxonomy":"vehica_23445","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vehica_23445?post=24058"},{"taxonomy":"vehica_23531","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasilsimulatormods.com\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vehica_23531?post=24058"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
