Makes infinitely a lot more sense than guessing it was the G42 - no way BMW was going to recycle a design into a new model, especially for a car like the 2 Series.
Makes more sense to be the new 1 series sedan "Chynah Edition" 🤣

Fairly confident this is a refresh for the F52 1 Series sedan.

That model is 3 years old now, prime for a LCI.

Personally, I think its the new G42. The design of the trunk and hood are way different than the current F52 and I think that BMW wouldn't go this far to redesign it for an LCI model for another 2-3 years. The car would be too outdated compared (interior and technology) to the 1 series hatch or even the 2GC. Usually LCI are very minor touches on small cars (I know its slightly bigger changes on the bigger cars). Thats my thoughts!

If this is a facelifted 1 series sedan, then it's a very extensive facelift. Normally BMW changes the lights and makes the grill bigger. This is far more than that.

Anyone notice the M badge at the lower front bar? Mmh. I thought that BMW only put M badges on the front M cars?

Could this be a 1 series type 1M?

1 series sedan, hatch, 2 GC.... I don't know how you can pay 1 penny for such abominations 🤢
After the GT series, BMW tries hard to release another catastrophic cars!
For F20/21 the LCI was on point, but for these FWD based models only the fire is the solution 😎

That grille looks gorgeous. Sleek, refined, clean and sexy. Why couldn't BMW do that on a 4?

Mercedes GLA taillights? Really BMW? No originality at all?
So the wide tall ass X4 gets a thin tail light that looks weird anyway and the small ass car like that gets a wide thick one?
Who the heck designs this shit and what kind of philosophy are they following anyway?
Random stupid design with no defined language I presume as it seems that they are all over the place.

And the front looks ugly too, still keeping the hood line.
Imagine that we can have a hood with just two little lines between the headlamp and the grill. Elegant and classy.
But the choose that ridiculous, ugly scar on the face.
Any individual in that design team who does that or approves such abomination is a mediocre, stupid, senseless and lack of common sense designer. Or in short, an idiot!
