BMW has already announced that the upcoming 1 Series will feature its front-wheel-drive platform, which is named UKL and is already available in the lineup under the X1, 2 Series Active Tourer, and 2 Series Gran Tourer.
BMW also sells a range of MINI models that feature the said platform, which has been developed after a considerable investment.
The first 1 Series with front wheel drive has already been already launched, and it also brought a new premiere in the BMW range.
While the European portfolio of the BMW Group is expected to receive a sedan from MINI, BMW might not leave the 1 Series range unturned.
The Gran Turismo body style, which has recently been popular among BMW designers, is considered a possibility for many, while some believe that the 1 Series will get a different body on top of the hatchback versions.
