Good power coming from the 2.0-litre engine

There is nothing new about this engine as many of the cars of this company have this one fitted but with different characteristics. The one in 120d has an output of 181 bhp and a torque of 280 lb-ft. the time it takes to travel till 60 mph which is an amazing time.

The diesel engine is refined to the extent of miscalculating it as petrol. It is noiseless with a lot of refinement put together. You can rev it as much as you want and even when it has reached its fullest the engine does not complain remaining smooth and friendly.

There is a manual transmission fitted and an optional eight-speed is also there. The manual gearbox is slick and effortless but the automatic gear change is a step ahead. Torque starts to show itself at 1750 rpm which means there is enough of it present throughout the trip. Fuel economy is good and for the environment, the diesel engine is kept in the limit for its emissions.

Body improvements

BMW 120d has been made wider and longer than before. But the weight has been balanced very well and lessened also. This has made the car quicker and for the passengers, more space has become available inside. This is a 5 door hatchback version meaning that there is a luggage space also.

The build quality is very good making the car more reliable also. When the major upgrade for the exterior took place it changes the looks than before and the present form of 120d is narrower from the front making it pleasing to drive and cutting through the air is easier now.

This car is for small height people and the taller ones do not find a comfortable position especially at the back which is cramped. The looks of the car are now more classy, bigger and soothing. The one which was previously designed had an aggressive look and it felt like it is for the bachelors only.

Where it suits the best

This small size sedan is fit for driving almost anywhere. There is a lot of low revs to make it suitable for town drive. On the highway also the car seems as swift and perfect as it is in town. Travelling on a curved road is also not a problem as BMW 1 series is engineered to be quick and precise.

The tires absorb those hard bumps and jolts mostly but it also depends on the mode selected. In Sports mode, the car remains firm and you can feel most of the imperfections of the road. The car remains in balance thanks to the right suspension and steering wheel.

There is a very minor body roll and it is ignorable also. The passengers inside remain relaxed most of the times, but they have to be smaller in size. The controls and everything inside the cabin is all placed intelligently to facilitate.
