BMW 1 Series Concept - Renderings

BMW 1 Series Concept - Renderings
Giom is the talented rendering artist that gave us the 2010 BMW 3 Series renderings and shortly after, the 2012 BMW M6 images.

He has now finalized his latest project: computer generated images of a BMW 1 Series Concept.

Giom:

This concept is pure fictional and based on nothing but imagination. I’m a huge fan of the One Series and I am under no illusions that I can create a better design. Having said that, I’m also not bound by any marketing and technical constraints, so the car pictured here would not and cannot predict the future model.

I’m doing this for fun and fun alone. My thinking towards the next model is that it might look more aggressive and purposeful. The design language will also reflect BMWs current design trends and will therefor be more edgy.

With my design, I tried to create a whole new identity for the One, but at the same time stuck to some typical BMW features.

Some interesting design elements: The headlights are CS Concept inspired but that’s where it ends. There are two parallel lines running from the kidney grill at the front all the way over the roof and ends in the rear hatch number plate indent. Also the two lines running along the side of the car carries on into the front bumper and bends downwards to integrate with the front air intake.

I hope you enjoy this Concept 1-Series as much as I enjoyed creating it.”

concept looks good but IMO unnecessary.

I agree that it's unnecessary, but disagree about the looks. It's not really an attractive design.

This car could be easily rebadged as the new Pontiac Le Mans (entry level car). Look at the front of the G8 and this side by side and imagine the BMW with a Pontiac emblem on the bonnet.

Why would BMW want GM to touch their cars? Look what they do to Saab and Opel. Ruined the brand. The funny thing is this 1 series would equal or out do the G6 and or can compete with the G8.

I should have stated that I was speaking from a styling standpoint.

I'm pretty sure it would be a cold day in hell before GM and BMW share a platform.

Again, I was simply pointing out how the newer BMW's and Pontiacs "kidney" grilles are becoming more and more similar.

This looks pretty good, of course the front end and the back under the window needs som work, and it looks short, but it looks better than the current one. I like the 1 series, and think buying one of the next generation, my current E46 316 drives well and are a great car so it can replace it when times come.

Very cool rendering.

I do find that some aspects were definitely well thought out, such as: wider kidney grilles, hard shoulder line, LED wraparound tail lights, Hofmeister "kink", to name a few. Keep up the good work!
