Coupe: body profile

This page contains facts that belong to this body, rather than repeating the complete generation history.

1 Series E82 is a distinct E81/E82/E87/E88 body branch. A lower-roof two-door body with longer doors and a more overtly sporting brief than the corresponding sedan.

The first 1 Series brought a longitudinal engine and rear-wheel drive to the premium compact class, later adding coupe and cabriolet branches. Reference body dimensions are 4,360 mm × 1,748 mm × 1,423 mm on a 2,660 mm wheelbase. Factory figures can vary slightly with bumpers, exterior equipment, homologation method and model year.
