BMW is well on its way to becoming a full-line manufacturer with plans to launch several all new models in niches not normally reserved for the luxury marques. We’ve previously reported about a new 3-series based crossover and a possible M10 super-sports car, but we now have information about several new models due before the end of the year.
Just around the corner are the new coupe and convertible versions of the entry-level 1-series, with both cars expected to get more powerful engines than the current hatch. A new 123d model will appear with the superb 204hp 400Nm 2.0L diesel, as well as a new 125i petrol version.
BMW’s 286hp 580Nm straight-six diesel engine will appear in a new X5 3.0sd and will also end up in the facelifted 6-series coupe due at September’s Frankfurt Auto Show. After that, we can expect to see the arrival of the all-new E71 X6 crossover.
