The compact boot of the BMW 1 Series quickly reaches its limits during a family trip or sports activity. Choose your vehicle generation and view the crossbars designed specifically for it.
Choosing the right roof rack depends on the exact model series. We offer assemblies for the three-door version E81 produced from 2007 to 2012, the five-door variant F20 from 2011 to 2019, and the F40 generation from 2019 to 2024.
When determining the generation, follow the production year in your vehicle registration document. The date of first registration may be delayed and could lead you to the wrong part.
For the BMW 1 Series, roof racks are mounted to fixing points. The manufacturer has prepared mounting points directly in the roof, ensuring the rack fits precisely into the designated positions.
Each generation has its own mounting kit matching the roof profile of that specific year. Therefore, assemblies from the F20 generation cannot be automatically used on the newer F40. The exact package contents and mounting procedure can always be found in the detail of each product.
The low body profile of the BMW 1 Series provides a great advantage when handling cargo. You can load bikes and skis without having to stand on the door sill.
When mounting a roof box, monitor its overall position on the roof. Longer boxes may come into contact with the tailgate spoiler when fully opened, so it is wise to choose an appropriate box length.
