Official F20 internet reveal?

The future BMW timeline:

http://www.bimmerpost.com/future-bmw/

Still says that the F20 will get its official reveal this month. Obviously that would mean today or tomorrow. Is this still happening in April? It seems unlikely. If not, when might we see it? Sometime early next week?

By the way, will the F21 3-door hatchback come hot on the heels of the F20? Or will it have to wait until later on, closer to the F22 coupe and F23 convertible?

We are now in the window, for the F20.

Busy months ahead something new every month until September.
Plus we have officially announced our appearance at the Tokyo Auto Show in December.

May : BMW 1er Sporthatch / BMW 6er M-Sport Packet.
June : BMW M3 Evo Sedan/ BMW M5

Just over two weeks to go.

But in Breaking NEWS- The EU Patent office has spilled the beans on the 1er's new competitor.
BMW can be found on the EU Patent database but do not expect clues or access codes and passwords. Someone has used a Mercedes Access or password to get these which was not a very good idea.

Thank you SCOTT, and yes I saw the A-Class leak. Overall it does not look as appealing as the F20 spyshots, though I am sure it will be a good seller.

So, it'll be two weeks as of tomorrow. Will we see it by the end of the week or this weekend?

Not sure why, but I'm really excited for this launch. I think it is probably because this officially kicks off the next generation of the smallest RWD BMW platform (well, except for the i3/megacity vehicles), and that is what I am most interested in right now as far as BMW's future vehicles.

Online reveal is today. Live reveal is at Frankfurt IAA in September.

These are the RWD 5-door hatchback models.

Alright, so the first FWD model will be the 1er GT right or is that RWD too.

And this one will become the 2-Series when the FWD model comes out right.

No, this is it for any reveals for now. Just the 5-door F20 1-series hatchback.
