Detailed analysis of the BMW 116d 3p Aut. · 116 CV (2017-2019)
General description
The 2017 BMW 1 Series 116d is the gateway to the Bavarian brand's universe of sensations. In its 3-door body, this premium compact exudes a unique character, combining the efficiency of its three-cylinder diesel engine with the purity of rear-wheel drive, a recipe that makes it a special and coveted piece in its segment.
Driving experience
Getting behind the wheel is rediscovering the pleasure of driving. The 116 horsepower, supported by a generous 270 Nm of torque from low revs, pushes decisively. The magic lies in its chassis and rear-wheel drive, which transmit an agility and a connection with the asphalt that make you smile in every corner. The 8-speed automatic gearbox is a delight, smooth in the city and quick when demanded, creating a mechanical symphony that prioritizes efficiency without sacrificing emotion.
Design and aesthetics
Its silhouette is athletic and compact. The long hood and set-back cabin scream 'BMW' from afar, a promise of dynamism that its 3-door body accentuates with a coupé-like feel. Inside, the atmosphere is sober, elegant, and completely driver-focused. The quality of the materials and the fit of each piece envelop you in a premium atmosphere that justifies its status, where every control is exactly where you expect to find it.
Technology and features
Beyond its mechanical soul, this 1 Series was at the forefront. The 1.5-liter diesel engine is a marvel of efficiency, achieving official consumption figures of just 3.8 l/100km thanks to technologies like the Stop/Start system. The iDrive infotainment system, controlled from the central knob, remained the market benchmark for its logic and fluidity, while the 8-speed automatic transmission was, and still is, a work of engineering art.
Competition
In the select club of premium compacts, its direct adversaries were the Audi A3 and the Mercedes-Benz A-Class. Both offered a very high level of quality and technology, but neither could replicate the purist driving experience of the BMW's rear-wheel drive. The Volkswagen Golf, always a benchmark, also stood as a very complete alternative, though without the aura and characteristic dynamism of the 1 Series.
Conclusion
This BMW 116d is not just a car; it's a statement of intent. It is the choice for those who seek more than just a means of transport; it is for those who value engineering, dynamics, and the unique feeling of a rear-wheel-drive compact. Despite being an entry-level version, it encapsulates the essence of BMW: efficiency, quality, and, above all, immense driving pleasure.
