We like what they’ve done with the new BMW 1 Series - keeping it similar to the previous model while still giving it a new look. In this video, you can see the “old” and new 1 Series F20 lined up to get a closer look at the differences in the two models. The quality of the video is not perfect, but the walkaround gives us a good look at what is a totally revised front end and some changes to the rear as well.

In the video, we also get a quick look at the new BMW 1 Series interior and things have been swanked up a bit in there with a new design and what looks like a better entertainment package. We’re particularly taken with the modernised and more aggressive front end of the new hatch, while the rear still lacks a bit of extra personality to our eyes.

The new 1 Series will be initially offered as a five-door hatch with a petrol and diesel engine in a total of five different powersteps. Come 2012, the 1 Series will get a couple of extra new engine options and new versions, starting with the three-door hatch set to arrive mid year.
