BMW 1-Series Coupe Review

Safety and Security4 out of 5

There are no Euro NCAP crash test results for the Coupe yet, but the 1-Series hatchback scored five stars for occupant safety, with three for child protection but only one star for pedestrian protection.

Six airbags are fitted as standard, along with traction and stability control. The 135i comes with a more advanced stability control system with extra features including Hill Start Assist, which holds the car on a slope for two seconds, and Brake Drying, which clears the film of water from the brake discs in wet weather.
