The range goes from mild to wild
BMW appears to have taken the whole ‘facelift’ thing quite literally. Because this is the new M135i, featuring a new set of lights that look so pinched and pulled back, we have no idea what this baby M car is thinking anymore.
Happy? Sad? Anxious? Angry? No idea. BMW’s 1 Series only looked cool once – the Bangle one – but even the more recent 1er’s distinctive face appears to have been traded for a rather more homogenous front that now just looks permanently surprised about something.Guess which compact SUV has the most effective advanced driver assist systemMaybe it’s the continuing fact it’s been demoted from the horsepower wars. Like its predecessor, the range-topping M135i features a 2.
So it’s not going to set the hot hatch world on fire, but, as we found with its predecessor, 300-ish horsepower is plenty enough in the world of 2024. There’s a seven-speed ‘Steptronic’ auto ‘box as standard, and of course four-wheel-drive.The M135i gets a special bodykit befitting its status, including bigger air intakes on the front apron, bigger side skirts… on the side, and a ‘3D’ rear diffuser. You’ll also spot four-exhaust pipes at the back, along with more M-specific jewellery.
There are standard-fit heated, leather-free seats, a redesigned gear selector, “high quality surfaces and trim” and even a new steering wheel. Looks fairly high-spec in there. The 120i gets a three-cylinder petrol engine and a little electric motor snuggled inside the seven-speed auto ‘box to give it some electrification. This car gets 166hp and a 0-100kph time of 7.8s.There’s more caster up front. A stiffer bodyshell. Tweaked dampers. Tonnes of ‘automated’ driving systems . Tons of apps, too.
