2013 BMW 1-series India review, test drive
The 1-series is, in true BMW fashion, rear-wheel drive and oodles of fun to drive. We take it for a spin on Indian roads.

The first thing you need to get around is the 1-series odd looks. Yes, the details and headlights are well executed but the long bonnet and a very upright cabin give it odd proportions, and the rear looks a little plain. So overall, on the styling front, the A-class and V40 Cross Country do a bit better than the 1-series.
No such complaints about the interiors though. It's only natural to expect interiors that befit the German luxury tag. No problems here -- the material quality and fit and finish on the inside are, save for a few bits here and there, top-notch. The layout of the dashboard looks a lot like that of its elder sibling, the 3-series, and it is very logical and functional. In fact, climb inside and you soon forget what you are driving, it feels so much like a 3-series in here. The large windows, low dashboard and slim pillars mean it’s very easy to see out of, and the driver’s seating position is just perfect.
