With the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/02/17/spy-shots-2012-bmw-1-series/">2012 BMW 1 Series</a> nearing its debut, <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/bmw/"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">BMW</span></a> has released a painfully vague teaser image of its next small car. We already have a good indication of the car's five-door shape, thanks to a crack team of spy photographers, but a second version is in the works, and judging by the profile, it's likely a three-door hatch.<br />
<br />
However the model lineup shakes out for the next <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/1+series">1 Series</a>, we can expect the five-door to hit production first, followed shortly thereafter by the second variant. To get ready for the cars' debut, BMW is readying a new ad blitz featuring two siblings under the slogan "one origin, two originals."<br />
<br />
For now, we're left with pure speculation about what shape the next 1 Series will take. Before the car is revealed fully, we wouldn't be surprised if BMW cranks out another teaser or two to keep the guessing game in full swing.
