Makes infinitely a lot more sense than guessing it was the G42 - no way BMW was going to recycle a design into a new model, especially for a car like the 2 Series.

Makes more sense to be the new 1 series sedan "Chynah Edition" 🤣

Fairly confident this is a refresh for the F52 1 Series sedan.

That model is 3 years old now, prime for a LCI.

Personally, I think its the new G42. The design of the trunk and hood are way different than the current F52 and I think that BMW wouldn't go this far to redesign it for an LCI model for another 2-3 years. The car would be too outdated compared (interior and technology) to the 1 series hatch or even the 2GC. Usually LCI are very minor touches on small cars (I know its slightly bigger changes on the bigger cars). Thats my thoughts!

If this is a facelifted 1 series sedan, then it's a very extensive facelift. Normally BMW changes the lights and makes the grill bigger. This is far more than that.

Anyone notice the M badge at the lower front bar? Mmh. I thought that BMW only put M badges on the front M cars?

Could this be a 1 series type 1M?

I thought a face lift is supposed to make you look better.

1 series sedan, hatch, 2 GC.... I don't know how you can pay 1 penny for such abominations 🤢
After the GT series, BMW tries hard to release another catastrophic cars!
For F20/21 the LCI was on point, but for these FWD based models only the fire is the solution 😎

That grille looks gorgeous. Sleek, refined, clean and sexy. Why couldn't BMW do that on a 4?
