The BMW X2 is more than just a new BMW X model. With its unmistakable design and sporty, urban genes, it makes a confident impression both in its class and within the BMW X model family.
The car's chassis and xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive system promise undiluted driving fun, and cutting-edge engines strike the ideal balance between sporting dynamics and exceptional efficiency. The digital services from BMW ConnectedDrive and BMW ConnectedDrive Services - both of which are now available in freshly updated form - add further intensity to the overall BMW X2 experience.
On the road, the X2 has the poise of an athlete in peak condition. This is true for the basic version and even more so for M Sport and M Sport X models, which are also making their debut. The BMW X2 will initially be launched with a choice of three engine variants, which will be expanded just a few months later to span a total of four petrol engine/transmission and five diesel engine/transmission combinations.
The newcomer will be launched with a choice of the BMW X2 sDrive20i petrol model, the X2 xDrive20d diesel variant, and the X2 xDrive25d diesel. The petrol variant is equipped with the sporty seven-speed Steptronic dual-clutch transmission, which stands out with both its swift gear changes and highly efficient operation, making it another factor in the low CO2 figure of 134g/km to 126g/km and combined fuel consumption of 16.9km/L to 18.2km/L.
The 192bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder unit delivers remarkable performance figures, too. The sprint from 0-100km/h is over in a rapid 7.7 seconds and top speed is 227km/h. Both diesel models come equipped with xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive as standard. The 2.0-litre diesel engine under the bonnet of the BMW X2 xDrive25d generates 231bhp and peak torque of 450Nm.
Despite emitting only 139g/km to 133g/km of CO2, the flagship diesel model in the BMW X2 lineup reaches the 100km/h mark from a standing start in an impressive 6.7 seconds. Both diesel engines link up with the eight-speed Steptronic transmission. All automatic models can also be specified as an option with gearshift paddles on the sports steering wheel, allowing the exceedingly agile BMW X2 to be driven in an even sportier fashion.
With a drag coefficient of just Cd0.28, the X2 xDrive20d is one of the most aerodynamically efficient models in the whole segment. It generates maximum output of 190bhp and belies its muscular 400Nm of torque with combined CO2 emissions of just 126g/km to 121g/km. The outputs of the petrol models range from 140bhp in the X2 sDrive18i up to 192bhp in the X2 xDrive20i. The diesel X2 sDrive18d and X2 xDrive18d have 150bhp.
Further attractive variants of the BMW X2 will be added to the sports activity coupe's lineup in early 2018 - in the shape of the three-cylinder X2 sDrive18i and the four-cylinder X2 xDrive20i, X2 sDrive18d and X2 xDrive18d.
