Bimmer Update

BMW is working on the next-generation 1-series – and our spies have caught the first test mules as they took to the streets around Munich. One of the main changes on the new 1-series will be better packaging, to overcome the claustrophobia rear-seat passengers suffer on today’s model. That’s why this test vehicle appears to have a wider track and changes around the doors. 

There’s still some time to wait for the new One; we won’t see it until 2009-2010 at the earliest. That’s when we’ll see the full list of changes for the first time, but the Munich grapevine suggests that we’ll see numerous technical changes on the new 1-series too.
