BMW 1M Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2010–2012) — First Generation
The BMW 1M Coupe combines compact proportions with a focus on driver involvement. Its performance character makes it appealing if you enjoy an active role behind the wheel.
In the 3.0 MT, the turbocharged BMW 1M engine combines strong mid-range response with a manual transmission and rear-wheel drive. You choose the gears yourself, making acceleration more involving, while the available torque reduces the need to change down for every increase in pace.
M1 identifies an equipment configuration for the 3.0 MT Coupe. When considering BMW 1M trim levels, distinguish the drivetrain designation from the equipment fitted to an individual car. Check comfort features, seat adjustments and infotainment separately, since the technical version name alone does not establish those details.
