Why is the resale value of the BMW 1 Series low?
1 Answers
The reason for the low resale value of the BMW 1 Series is that the resale value of luxury cars itself is low. Models like the Mercedes-Benz E-Class or BMW 5 Series and above normally do not have very high resale values. The average resale rates for the BMW 1 Series over the first five years are: 59.7%, 52.3%, 46.3%, 42.3%, and 38.1%; its resale value ranks 62nd among compact cars. Relevant information about BMW sedans is as follows: 1. Styling Features: BMW sedans have distinctive body styling, with round lamps paired with rectangular radiator grilles forming a unique style. 2. Powertrain: All BMWs are rear-wheel drive, which allows for a 50-50 weight distribution between the front and rear, resulting in better performance during high-speed cornering and straight-line driving compared to front-wheel-drive cars.
