About the BMW F20
The F20 is the five-door version of the second-generation 1 Series, built from 2011 to 2019. Sharing its rear-wheel-drive platform with the F21 three-door — the last 1 Series to send power to the rear — the F20 offered a wide engine range, from the frugal 116d EfficientDynamics to the M135i and M140i performance flagships. Practical, well-built and engaging, the F20 was a favorite in the premium hatchback market.
