The latest AutoZeitung are running with a visual comparison with the new BMW 1er Sporthatch alongside the current VW Golf.

The rendering bar some detail changes to the front is almost spot on exact for the new Sporthatch. The key thing to understand is that there is more detail and sculpture in the facia as this rendering lets on in that it gives it a kind of bland look.
For example the headlights are more sculptured especially at the top edge with allows a ledge that forms in line with the front nose cone and bonnet lid.

As for the car itself? It is absolutely fantastic to drive it really enjoys the corners, and the steering is nice and agile. It is also very well insulated. The inside is like a mini-7er when equipped with full options and yes due to the wheelbase there is now an abundance of space if you choose to sit in the rear...
