BMW’s 2020 kill-list claims its first three victims

BMW’s axe is starting to fall, with the German automaker confirming the first of its models which will be discontinued for the 2020 model year.

Three cars from BMW’s range have been cut, though the company is believed to be only just getting started when it comes to paring back a line-up that has grown considerably over the past years.

Indeed, at times it has seemed like BMW was eager to fill every possible white-space in its portfolio.

That has seen new sedans, SUVs, and coupes arrive across a range of sizes and price points, yes, but also variants which blend elements from each segment into something new.

BMW’s “GT” cars, for example, have adopted so-called fastback body styles.

Not quite a sedan, and not quite a wagon, they have sloping hatchbacks instead, and promise more practicality but without the stodginess of a station wagon.
