"The BMW Concept Compact Sedan reveals the potential we see in a compact sedan," says Adrian van Hooydonk, Senior Vice President BMW Group Design. "It not only gives the driver and passengers generous amounts of space within a compact area but does so while providing the sporting ability you'd expect from BMW and an elegance otherwise only available in large BMW sedans. The quality and intrinsic value of the BMW Concept Compact Sedan are clear signals of our premium intentions for the car."
No technical details have been released, as it's all about this car's design.
According to BMW nomenclature, the production model should be called the 1 Series Saloon, but it's also possible that 2 Series Gran Coupé could be adopted.
"The characterful design of the BMW Concept Compact Sedan embodies the driving pleasure offered by a sporting car with minimised exterior dimensions. It is as distinctive as it is essential - and, as such, it injects new life into the compact segment. This four-door sedan stands for everything that sets BMW apart," explains Karim Habib, Head of Design BMW Automobiles.
