Some companies, when they stick with fundamentally only one design scheme, end up with a whole line of ugly cars. Others, when they have the same mindset but choose a good design, end up with a line of good to very good looking cars.

And, remember, the BMWs have powerful engines and respectable performance, while the A1 Sportback Concept is a sub-compact hybrid. In essence, it is an econo-car. And yet it is still hotter: proof that fuel-efficient cars can be very cool.
It is a five-door four seater, boasting a very impressive design. Now this is no sports sedan, but the styling is clean and classy, yet very modern and technical at the same time.
