BMW 128ti 2021 review - the best FWD hot hatch you can buy?

Need help buying your next car? Click www.carwow.co.uk/-help-me-carwow and my team and I will help you choose your ideal car at a fair price - from Mat Watson!
.............................................................
This is the all-new BMW 128ti!
Now hear us out, BMW fanboys… We know you won’t be happy about the 128ti being front-wheel-drive! But Mat’s got his hands on one to find out if that's really such a bad thing.
For starters, the performance stats are more than good enough. With a 2-litre turbo under the bonnet, the 128ti can put down 265hp and 400Nm of torque! What’s more, it’s claimed it can power you to 60mph in just 6.1 seconds!
Sure those stats aren’t ground-breaking, but with a price tag of just under £34,000, the 128ti is clearly a direct rival for hot hatches such as the Golf GTI and Octavia vRS!
But does it have what it takes to top them? And more importantly, will Mat be able to hit (or even beat!) the claimed 0-60mph time in the wet?! You’ll have to keep watching to find out!

The 128ti comes with the full digital dials as standard right now. BMW have run out of the basic dials according to my dealer. Check the configurator to be sure, as the basic dials may come back if the parts supply improves. But, right now the full digital dials are standard spec. I ordered mine in January without upgrading the dials and now I am getting the full digital dials at no extra charge :-)

[@joachimsoubari3772]

About the optional tire: this is a known trick to save 1-2g CO2/km. If you do not check the box you get something like a goodyear efficient grip. So what count for the emission is the standard tire. Everybody who is aware will take the sporty tire. Audi/BMW/Benz do the same with the size of the Tank. Optional +10-15L for cheap money (+50€). I'm pretty sure on the assembly line they put the big Tank as standard

I am not against you but RWD hatchbacks aren't fun to drive. FWD or AWD system suits hot hatches better, RWD on a hatchback makes it lesser quicker and makes the joy and trill of driving a hatchback blund.

[@mikedelicus]

@@johndavidson3424 Absolutely not. This 128i is only 0,2 seconds (0-100km/h) quicker than my older 125d with 40hp less and RWD. The new 135i which has only 40 hp more and but with AWD is 1,2 seconds faster. You see how the traction control slows the 128i down. I would never buy a car with more than 250 hp and FWD. My 125D has 450 NM, I would have serious traction problems with FWD. That's probably the reason why we will never see a 125D in future.

You'll get a great engine (B58!) and rear wheel drive fun. But I'd always recommend getting the ZF 8-Sepped Auto in the F20-1Series.

Like I said, the 128ti is a propper hot hatch in that it has the handling on the twisties and interior whipes the floor with the 140. The steering feel on the 140 was crap, miles better in the 128 which has much better feedback. It's literally pin sharp, and doesn't skit all over like the 140, especially if the road is wet or damp.Maybe you are a 140 owner yourself and don't like to hear that the new kid on the block is better. Oh and by the way most reviews say the 128 is a better car than the latest 135 aswell. Anyway, unlike yourselves I've driven them both so I know what I am talking about.

Great review as usual. Really like the look of this car. I'm actually on the verge of ordering one in black. In honest opinion could this be a daily driver & is the suspension overly firm?

[@sct3811]

Did you order one and if so what's your personal opinion of it?

@@sct3811 I've actually ordered the M135i. July delivery 🤞🏻

My corsa vxr did that shaking thing all the damn time, claimed to do 0-60 in 6.5 seconds but you'll be lucky to get it under 7.

I test drove one of these a couple weeks ago and it was AMAZING. The FWD does mean that in tighter little twisty roads it does really really well, although I do miss the RWD F20 model

The thing with the Michelin Sport tires is simply because these tires ever so slightly increase the CO2 emission of the car, this allows BMW to perform the emission test on the normal tires. Same thing with fitting bigger petrol tanks as a no-cost option with certain brands. All thanks to stupid government regulations.

So does this have stiffer suspension still from the M sport model ? I’m looking to test drive the 118i m sport but constant reviews and seems to be the only negative to have firm the ride is ? My back is concerned 😬

*Love it looks great*

[@dillanmistry]

I’m looking forward to buy this car in 10 years time

[@xnax1993]

By then all those tacky Ti decals have come off, too, so it's a win/win

Always love the BMW reviews!!

[@arthurmroyce]

Sounds like BMW's answer to the Veloster N. They even lifted some of the styling queues.

[@ms.eflevoland687]

Thanks matt now i cant unsee the loose ti sticker

BMW’s are turning into the golfs. Just a bunch of different variants for no reason

I'm surprised it's taken BMW so long to launch this car. VW has been the virtual default choice in this segment for years. Mercedes-AMG realised this and have positioned their A Class accordingly, but BMW have sat on their hands until now.

Matt sound in the outro sounds like when he is in his car review launch video 😂
