BMW's compact class tested by CPA

BMW 1 Series (F20) 116i

BMW 116i F20


The BMW 1 Series is probably one of the most popular models in the BMW product range. The small BMW certainly feels very comfortable in the city, but it can also show what it is made of on the country road. The small R4 engine in the 116i is a bit too weak for us with just 136 hp. It's high time to give the BWM a little more power - the engine-specific chip tuning from CPA is particularly suitable: By optimizing the map of the CPA PowerBox, the power can be increased by up to 35 hp and 58 NM. It is precisely the increased torque that ensures improved acceleration in the lightweight 1 Series, and the extra horsepower also brings more driving pleasure and revving pleasure to the BMW 116i.
