Product Overview

BMW 1 Series F20 LCI 5-door is a compact hatchback in production from 2015 to 2019. It was available with a range of inline-3, inline-4, and inline-6 engines that displaced 1.5 to 3.0 liters.
Compared to the 3-door F21 LCI, the F20 shares the exact same set of tradeoffs, though the 5-door form factor makes the F20 less attractive.
Notably, BMW gradually discontinued the horrible range of engines and replaced them with some interesting alternatives. Headlining the new engine lineup is the B58 found in the M140i. In RWD + manual guise, the M140i is arguably the best hatchback ever made.
