2026 BMW 118 Hatch Automatic

The 2026 BMW 118 Hatch combines the compact footprint and everyday usability of a sportshatch with the polished presentation expected of a contemporary BMW. Finished in Skyscraper Grey metallic with a black interior, this new five-seat model is configured with an automatic transmission and front-wheel drive, making it a straightforward fit for urban driving and regular day-to-day use.

Its petrol engine produces 115 kW (156 hp) and 230Nm, with the vehicle listed at a combined fuel consumption of 6.4L/100km. The automatic transmission includes gearshift paddles, adding a more involved option for drivers who prefer to take greater control of gear changes while retaining the convenience of an automatic in traffic.

The cabin is designed around comfort and practical technology. Electric front-seat adjustment with memory helps establish a consistent driving position, while heating for the driver and front passenger adds welcome comfort in cooler conditions. Automatic air conditioning, a heated steering wheel and a personal eSIM further support a convenient, connected driving experience.

Useful hatchback functionality is supported by an automatically operated tailgate, a luggage-compartment net and a through-loading system. These details make the 118 easier to live with when carrying shopping, work equipment or a mix of passengers and luggage. The five-seat layout also gives it flexibility for routine family and commuting duties without moving into a larger vehicle class.

Driver assistance and visibility equipment includes Parking Assistant Plus, Driving Assistant Professional, adaptive LED headlights, High-Beam Assistant and a BMW Head-Up Display. The specification also includes a tyre pressure monitor, active pedestrian protection, intelligent emergency calling and an anti-theft security system. These systems are intended to reduce the effort involved in parking and longer drives while providing additional support in varied traffic conditions.

Inside, BMW Live Cockpit Professional, DAB+ radio and wireless charging storage add practical digital functionality. A Harman Kardon HiFi loudspeaker system is included as part of the listed enhancement equipment, while the Panorama Glass Roof brings extra openness to the cabin. Comfort Access, an automatically anti-dazzling interior mirror and BMW kidney Iconic Glow are also listed among the equipment packages.

The available M Sport-related equipment gives the car a more distinctive cabin and exterior treatment. Listed additions include M Sport exterior and interior parts, adaptive M Suspension, red high-gloss M Sport brakes, an M leather steering wheel, sport seats, M seat belts and an anthracite headliner. M High-Gloss Shadow Line detailing and an M rear spoiler reinforce the sportier visual theme.
