Information status and national-market versions BMW Group vehicles meet the requirements of the highest safety and quality standards. Changes in requirements for environmental protection, customer benefits and design render necessary continu¬ ous development of systems and components. Consequently, there may be discrepancies between the contents of this document and the vehicles available in the training course. This document basically relates to the European version of left hand drive vehicles. Some operating el¬ ements or components are arranged differently in right-hand drive vehicles than shown in the graphics in this document. Further differences may arise as the result of the equipment specification in specific markets or countries.

Introduction. 1.1. General information The BMW 1 Series Coupe and Convertible have been available since March of 2008. As of March 2011 production, the 1 Series Coupe and Convertible will undergo a redesign in order to maintain its leading position in the market and to fend off the ever increasing number of competitors. This model revision, known as LCI (Life Cycle Impulse), includes a pronounced visual upgrade at the front and rear plus improvements to details and equipment levels. This document is intended to provide a basic understanding of the changes to the 1 series LCI. 1 E82/E88 LCI 2. Body. 2.1. Exterior design 2.1.1. Front view The new front end of the E82 LCI and E88 LCI is distinguished by the following features: Front view of E82/E88 LCI Index Explanation Central grille with black styling bar Vertical outer air scoops (128i coupe and convertible only) 1 Front bumper trim has been redesigned in terms of function and technical design Redesigned front fog lights Redesigned headlights 2 E82/E88 LCI 2. Body. 2.1.2. Rearview The rear of the E82 LCI and E88 LCI is distinguished by the redesign of the rear tail light cluster. © Rear view of E82 LCI Index Explanation 1 Rear light cluster retains the same external dimensions but has a new housing and lens 3 E82/E88 LCI 2. Body. 2.1.3. Side view The side view of the E82 LCI and E88 LCI remains unchanged from the previous models. However, there are two new body colors, Vermillion Red Metallic (SA A82) and Marrakesh Brown Metallic (SA B09). The base wheel sizes have increased by 1 ” to enhance the dynamic nature of the vehicle to 17” wheels on the 128i models and 18” wheels on the 135i models. New wheel designs are also available including an aero wheel shown below. Side view of E88 LCI with Aero wheel 2.2. Interior design 2.2.1. Cockpit The elegant cockpit with its typical BMW design has been further upgraded by the high quality and harmony of the materials used. Both Coupe and Convertible 135i models receive standard power seats with adjustable lumbar sup¬ port. The light switch cluster and the heating and air conditioning controls have been carried over from the E9x. All convertibles will receive a standard through-loading system for improved storage capacity. The iPod/USB Adapter is now standard on all E82/E88 LCI models. 4 TG10- E82/E88 LCI 3. Improved Aerodynamics. 3.1. Handling dynamics From an aerodynamics viewpoint, the E82/E88 LCI incorporates the following aerodynamic features: • AirCurtain integrated in the front bumper. Only available on the 128i E82/E88 . • Aerodynamic kit standard on the 135i E82/E88 • Optional "Streamline" 17” aero wheels (SA 2AP). These are directional wheels and are specif¬ ic to the different direction of rotation on each side of the car. Only available on the 128i E82/ E88. These features produce positive effects on fuel consumption and CO 2 emission and represent mea¬ surable EfficientDynamics attributes. In addition to those two measures, the front bumper has been further aerodynamically optimized in this model revision. The effect of that is to enable achievement of a perfect combination of low aero¬ dynamic drag coefficient Cd and optimum engine and component cooling. Carefully positioned air scoops in the front bumper ensure that cooling system components such as radiator, intercooler and discrete oil cooler are provided with the optimum air flow for cooling. 5 E82/E88 LCI 3. Improved Aerodynamics 3.1.1. AirCurtain The AirCurtain is an aerodynamic feature created by an air scoop in the outer area of the front bumper leading to a slit-shaped outlet inside the front wheel arch. The AirCurtain accelerates high-energy air flow to create a curtain of air that protects the wheel arch from air turbulence at the side, thereby reducing the car's aerodynamic drag. The overall improvement is approx. ACd = - 0.003. AirCurtain on 128i E82/E88 LCI At present there are no competitors offering a similar feature in this class of vehicle. 6 5OZI-O10. E82/E88 LCI 3. Improved Aerodynamics 3.1.2. Aero wheels (SA 2AP) The primary aim of the aero wheels is to reduce the rotational resistance created by the air displace¬ ment effect of the spokes. With a typical 17-inch wheel, as much as 2 bhp of engine power can be lost at a speed of 155 mph. The power loss is equivalent to (ACd = 0.004). 6 O Left "Streamline" aero wheel for 128i E82/E88 LCI 7 E82/E88 LCI 3. Improved Aerodynamics. 3.1.3. Principle of the aero wheel The aero wheel reduces the pressure difference between the front and back of the spokes.

Body Electrical/Electronics. 4.1. Exterior lights 4.1.1. Headlights The headlights on the E82/E88 LCI incorporate the white LED "Razorlight" styling light for the first time in this configuration. The Razorlight merges directly into the wave guide and ensures a high level of visibility on the road. The 128i coupe and convertible can be ordered with optional bi-xenon headlights (SA 522) and AHL adaptive headlights (SA 524). The 135i coupe and convertible will have bi-xenon headlights and AHL adaptive headlights as standard. The LED "Razorlight” styling light is only included with bi-xenon headlights (SA 522) and adaptive headlights (SA 524). As standard, the 128i coupe and convertible is fitted with halogen headlights.

Body Electrical/Electronics 4.1.3. Rear lights The rear light units retain the typical BMW L-shape as on the E9x LCI and the FI 0/F07 and F01 mod¬ els and are in the form of continuous LED elements. Rear taillight units using LED technology combined with fiber optics for distributing the light are avail¬ able only if the vehicle is equipped with xenon headlights.
