	Adrian Van Hooydonk, Head of Design - BMW Automobiles explains the "summer feeling" of the BMW 1 Series Convertible. During the day, the sun reflects across the long lines of the hood's contour before being absorbed by the convex-concave surfaces and protruding wheel arches. At night, city lights rebound off the muscular profile. When the softtop is open, the focus shifts to the wide and elegant rear. When closed, the impact is compact and powerful. Embodying a unique approach to life, the BMW 1 Series Convertible offers the most inspiring open-top driving experience in its class
