BMW 1er-Reihe F40 118i M Sport Steptronic (DKG) - Long-range vehicle

Is the BMW 1er-Reihe suitable for long distances? If one asks the question whether this automobile is also suitable for longer highway stages, one has to consider different aspects, comfort, tank volume, top speed...

The tank capacity (50 liters) is rather average in size, but in conjunction with the good average consumption (5 liters / 100km), you can sometimes cover very long ranges with the BMW 1er-Reihe. An important criterion for frequent drivers: the top speed. This is 213 km/h and is thus definitely suitable for long distances. At least as important on long journeys is the comfort and interior space. With a length of 4319 mm, the car ranks among the compacts. Depending on the equipment, you will find quite comfortable companions in a BMW 1er-Reihe.

The integrated distance cruise control ensures both safe and relaxed travel by automatically maintaining both the speed and the distance to the vehicle in front. Of course, air conditioning is a must for comfortable journeys. Here, even an automatic air conditioning system is installed, i.e. the air volume and temperature is automatically adjusted to the interior temperature, while a simple air conditioning system has to be operated manually. In unclear parking situations, the built-in rear view camera helps to avoid accidents. The driver is warned of objects in the blind spot should an attempt be made to change lanes.
