BMW India President, Philipp von Sahr has confirmed the company will launch the 1-Series in India in September, a premium hatchback that falls in the same segment as the the Mercedes Benz A-Class. Like the rest of BMW India lineup, the 1-Series will be assembled in the company's Chennai plant. The BMW 1-Series will be available in both 4 cylinder petrol and diesel variants and will be the automaker's new entry level car in the country, with an expected starting price ranging between INR 18 - 20 lakhs.
