BMW 1-Series 128ti (2020 - 2024) 128ti 5dr Step Auto Owner Review

The 128ti is a great alternative to the m135i and offers more of a drivers experience. Having test drove both you do notice the difference in not having X Drive in the 128ti and it’s not trying to adjust and correct your driving. Also the 128ti feels a bit quicker even though it’s not and that’s because it is lighter and more engaging to drive because of not having X Drive. I would say if you want a good all round car both the m135i and 128ti are great options and it will just come down to personal preference what you choose. 128ti feels a lot more “boy racer” and more engaging, while the m135i feels a bit more grown up.
