Yes, we know it’s a really strange and long name for a car, but there isn’t really any other way to described this performance 1-Series three-door until it’s properly revealed at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. There is a whole bunch of what BMW is calling M Performance models that will debut at the Swiss venue, including the new superdiesel 5-Series and X6.
These cars will be aimed at drivers who would like the performance of an M but with the everyday practicality of a regular car, according to a statement made by BMW M boss Friedrich Nitschke.
In the case of the 1-Series you see right here, it most likely packs the mighty 3.0-liter straight six, so it’s technically a 135i. Output of the N54 should sit at about 320, making it the most powerful version of the new 1-Series.
