Detailed analysis of the BMW 116d 5p Aut. · 116 CV (2017-2019)
General description
The 2017 BMW 1 Series is the embodiment of driving pleasure in a compact format. In a sea of front-wheel drives, this 116d stands as a bastion of rear-wheel drive, offering a unique connection between the driver, the machine, and the asphalt. It is the gateway to the BMW universe, a car that not only takes you to your destination but makes you feel every curve of the road.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the sensations are purely BMW. The steering is precise and communicative, and the rear-wheel drive gives you an addictive dynamism, gently pushing you out of every corner. The 116 hp three-cylinder diesel engine, supported by a generous 270 Nm of torque, responds with energy from low revs, while the 8-speed automatic gearbox operates with a smoothness and speed that borders on perfection. It's not a sports car, but its agility and balance constantly bring a smile to your face.
Design and aesthetics
Its design is a statement of intent. The long hood and set-back cabin scream 'rear-wheel drive'. The lines are sharp and athletic, with the iconic double kidney grille and the piercing gaze of its headlights. Inside, you are embraced by a driver-oriented cockpit, where every material feels solid and of high quality. It's a timeless sporty elegance, a premium refuge designed for enjoyment.
Technology and features
Beyond its mechanical soul, this 1 Series integrates technology designed for efficiency and comfort. The iDrive system is intuitively operated from the central controller, being a benchmark of its time. The engine, with TwinPower Turbo technology and a Start-Stop system, along with the brilliant management of the gearbox, achieves surprisingly low consumption without sacrificing response. It is the EfficientDynamics philosophy at its best.
Competition
In the exclusive club of premium compacts, its direct rivals are the Audi A3 Sportback and the Mercedes-Benz A-Class. Both offer technological interiors and great comfort, but neither could match at that time the pure driving experience provided by the BMW's rear-wheel drive. The Volkswagen Golf, always a benchmark, also competes for its overall balance, though without the premium aura of the propeller badge.
Conclusion
The BMW 116d of this generation is more than just a car; it is an experience, a passionate choice for those who prioritize driving sensations. It represents the end of an era for compacts from Munich, the last one with the brand's classic essence. It is a balanced, efficient vehicle with superb build quality, ideal for those who want to feel the road and enjoy every kilometer with a touch of distinction.
