A prototype for the updated 1-Series sedan has now been spotted. The car looks to be receiving new fascias front and rear. We can also see the internals of the headlights have been revised, and the same is likely true for the taillights. The 1-Series is based on BMW Group's UKL front-wheel-drive...
