What nonsense I have read on this thread.

Nico Huet the designer of the F20 is not getting fired because the car has exceeded BMW's expectations and is a success and now we are experiencing huge demand for the new M135i. Sales of the F20 are still strong especially in light of new competition and the arrival of the F21.

The 2er is not back to the drawing board as the car has nothing to do with the 1er in the first place. It will be familiar but executed differently.

The 2er Gran Coupe is considered because of demand for small sedans , BMW customers wanted RWD and that is what they will be given.

We might be coming late to the market but the 6er Gran Coupe shows that when we do we make a lot of noise.

By bringing the Gran Coupe 2er to the market it shows that we still believe in tradition, the philosophy of what such a BMW small sedan should be and how it is implanted in its DNA.
