BMW'S M1 HOT HATCH
BMW’s front-wheel-drive revolution is set to kick into high gear in 2019 with the launch of the third-generation 1 Series, although the flagship M130iX M Performance model will be four-wheel drive. The next 1 Series is described by one high ranking official as a distinct turning point for the German car maker, which last year surrendered the global luxury car sales lead to its key rival, Mercedes-Benz, for the second consecutive year. The M130iX hot hatch will be a crucial part of the overhaul to front-wheel drive as BMW bids to prove that it
can offer a credible front-drive performance model, alongside its traditionally successful rear-wheel-drive M cars.
