The 1-series menu now includes a new engine, a new transmission, and—hooray!—free leather upholstery.

Give us leather upholstery any day. It’s easy to clean, is almost always paired with seat heaters, and we hate cows. (OK, we don’t really hate cows. Well, we hate the rude ones.) Nowadays, extended leather packages can be selected to cover the dashboard, infotainment controllers, and more, and Porsche buyers can even get their vent slats covered in the stuff. And so we welcome this minor bit of news: buyers of the BMW 1-series now will be able to opt for leather seats at no charge. It’s true, all 2011 1-series models can be fitted with the totally gratis Value package—previously offered on the 2009 5-series and 328i/xi—which not only adds cowhide seat coverings, but iPod integration, too.
