It will be available in four versions -- the 128i, the 135i, the 123d and the 120d -- with 3.0 litre petrol engines and 2.0 litre diesels.

The passenger section with the characteristic BMW 'Hofmeister kink' is moved rearward and offers a nimble look with the long hood. The trunklid has an integrated spoiler and on the 135i an additional lip spoiler provides greater downforce on the rear end at high speeds. BB.
