1 series wil be FWD. I'm curious who's on target for these models? Only new BMW customers?
I don't think we'll see many actual BMW customers to make the switch to a FWD car as they already like a RWD BMW.

Please read the article again. Yes, the upcoming first gen 2 series will have RWD. But we further consider the second gen 2 series having FWD and the reasoning for it.

The article is not coming up when clicked.
Why bother making an RWD 2 series just to cripple it later? Totally pointless and a betrayal of those who buy BMW other than to look good
BMW's USP has been rear drive 50:50 weight distribution with precision handling.
I for one will not be spending BMW price money on a FWD car, if I want that kind of car I'd save money and buy a Skoda or Seat which will drive just as well and cost 1000s less.
