The BMW X2 is the car that first introduced the vehicle concept of a
Sports Activity Coupé (SAC) for the premium compact segment. And now
the even more distinctive, even sportier and even more forward-looking
second generation is taking to the stage. Significantly larger
dimensions and a pronounced coupé silhouette clearly showcase in its
exterior design the development leap taken by the new BMW X2. The
progressive character of the new model is also evident in the fully
electric BMW iX2 variant, as well as in a large spread of systems
enabling automated driving and parking, and in the innovative digital
services laid on by the new BMW iDrive with QuickSelect and BMW
Operating System 9.
The worldwide market launch will get underway in March 2024 with the
all-electric BMW iX2 xDrive30 (electric power consumption combined in
the WLTP cycle: 17.7 – 16.3 kWh/100 km; CO2 emissions:
0 g/km; figures in NEDC cycle: – ), BMW X2 M35i xDrive performance
model (fuel consumption combined: 8.0 – 7.7 l/ 100 km [35.3 – 36.7 mpg
imp]; CO2 emissions combined: 181 – 174 g/km in the WLTP
cycle; figures in NEDC cycle: – ), one other petrol option and one
diesel model. In summer 2024 a second fully electric variant and
another diesel-engined example will be added to the line-up.
The new BMW X2 and new BMW iX2 will be produced flexibly on a single
assembly line at BMW Group Plant Regensburg. The high-voltage
batteries for the fully electric model variant are also made at the
Regensburg site. The new BMW iX2 sees the BMW Group further
accelerating the ramp-up of electric mobility. Added to which, the
progressive premium character profile of the compact SAC is
underscored by further advances in sustainability encompassing the
complete vehicle lifecycle – from resource-preserving production
through the use phase to subsequent recycling.
Exterior design: authentic Sports Activity Coupé with dynamic
lines and a confident presence.
The new BMW X2 has a distinctive, visually expressive design showing
clear differentiation from the brand’s compact Sports Activity Vehicle
(SAV), the BMW X1. As such, it is instantly identifiable as a
pure-bred Sports Activity Coupé (SAC). Also characteristic of the new
model are its dynamically stretched lines and a generous surface
treatment. The new BMW X2 has grown by 194 millimetres in length over
its predecessor to 4,554 millimetres, by 21 millimetres in width to
1,845 millimetres and by 64 millimetres in height to
1,590 millimetres. Plus, its increased wheelbase and wider tracks
benefit space in both the five seats and the boot. The new X2 has a
maximum load capacity of 560 – 1,470 litres, depending on the model
variant. The BMW iX2 offers between 525 and 1,400 litres.
The model-specific, upright front end of the new BMW X2 exudes
confidence and presence. Its defining elements are striking LED
headlights and an almost hexagonal BMW kidney grille, which – in a
first for the premium compact segment – can be specified as an option
with BMW Iconic Glow contour lighting. Also on the options list are
Adaptive LED Headlights with non-dazzling matrix high beam.
The roofline, which flows along an unbroken path into the rear end,
creates a slim, coupé-shaped silhouette and proportions in the
signature style of an SAC from BMW. At the rear, the prominently
flared wheel arches and muscular shoulders come to the fore. The
horizontal contours of the model-specific rear light design further
enrich the sporting flavour, as do a Gurney-style spoiler and an
eye-catching rear apron.
M-specific design features such as the two pairs of exhaust tailpipes
integrated into the rear apron give the BMW X2 M35i xDrive a
particularly dynamic aura. An M Sport package is available for all
other model variants, including the new BMW iX2, and likewise brings
aerodynamically optimised exterior details. Also on the options list
is the M Sport package Pro, which adds extended M High-gloss
Shadowline exterior trim, M lights Shadowline, an M rear spoiler and
an M Sport braking system with red-painted callipers, among other features.
Customers can choose from two solid and eleven metallic paint
finishes for the exterior of their new BMW X2, including the new Fire
Red metallic variant. Two Frozen shades from BMW Individual and a
broad spectrum of BMW Individual special paint finishes are also available.
Premium ambience with a sporting flavour; impressive functionality.
The interior of the new BMW X2 has a modern premium ambience with
sporting touches. The slender instrument panel, housing the BMW Curved
Display, is joined in the cabin by a “floating” armrest with integral
control panel. In the front section of the centre console are two cup
holders and a smartphone tray with indirect illumination and wireless charging.
The newly developed seats are also offered in the Veganza perforated
variant and Vernasca leather with attractive quilting as alternatives
to the standard cloth upholstery. Customers can also specify sport
seats, electric seat adjustment with memory function, lumbar support
and a massage function. Further improvements have been made to both
acoustic comfort and occupant protection. Standard equipment now
includes an interaction airbag between the driver’s seat and front
passenger seat.
Expanded standard equipment, targeted individualisation.
Two-zone automatic climate control, the navigation system BMW Maps
and a Sport leather steering wheel all come as standard in the new
BMW X2, as do automatic tailgate operation, four USB-C ports and a 12V
power socket in both the centre console and the boot. The number of
driver assistance systems and digital services available has also
increased significantly over the predecessor model.
Newly structured equipment packages enable targeted individualisation
of the car. Among the options available to enhance its premium
character are a mirror package, steering wheel heating and the Harman
Kardon Sound System. A highlight of the options list is the panoramic
glass sunroof, whose dark-tinted glass surface extends right up to the
windscreen and the roof frame on either side, and a long way back in a
single section into the rear part of the roof. An electrically
operated trailer tow hitch can also be ordered as an option.
BMW iX2: premium electric mobility in a compact SAC.
An all-electric variant will be part of the new SAC line-up from
launch in the shape of the BMW iX2 xDrive30. Its two highly integrated
drive units – one at the front axle and one at the rear – together
generate a system output of 230 kW/313 hp (including temporary boost),
and system torque of 494 Nm (364 lb-ft). The iX2 xDrive30 accelerates
from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 5.6 seconds on the way to a top speed
of 180 km/h (112 mph). A combination of the high-voltage battery’s
impressive 64.8 kWh of usable energy and the high efficiency of the
drive system enable a range of 417 – 449 kilometres (259 – 279 miles)
in the WLTP cycle.
Adaptive recuperation and the MAX RANGE function also contribute to
the outstanding range figures. The latest version of the Max
Performance Charging software optimises above all efficiency when
charging the car. Added to which, the fully electric SAC is equipped
to use the Plug & Charge Multi Contract function. And the new
Connected Home Charging Package for load- and solar-optimised charging
at home is also available for the BMW iX2.
BMW X2 M35i xDrive performance model already available from launch.
A performance model available from the launch of the new BMW X2 is
set to bring the compact SAC’s dynamic nature even more prominently to
the fore. The new BMW X2 M35i xDrive, with its hallmark M design and
handling characteristics, is an alluring proposition. Its 2.0-litre
four-cylinder engine produces maximum output of 221 kW/300 hp in
Europe (233 kW/317 hp in USA and other markets).
The new BMW X2 M35i xDrive sprints to 100 km/h (62 mph) from rest in

characteristics. Its standard adaptive M suspension enhances both
agility and long-distance comfort. M Compound brakes are offered as an option.
Efficient petrol and diesel engines, seven-speed Steptronic
transmission with double clutch as standard.
A three-cylinder petrol unit from the latest modular generation of
the Efficient Dynamics engine family powers the new BMW X2 sDrive20i
(fuel consumption combined: 6.5 – 6.0 litres/100 km [43.5 –
47.1 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions combined: 148 – 136 g/km in
WLTP cycle; figures for the NEDC cycle: – ). Teaming up with the 48V
mild hybrid system, the 1.5-litre engine delivers maximum output of
125 kW/170 hp (developed by the combination of the combustion engine
with up to 115 kW/156 hp and the integrated electric motor with up to 14 kW/19 hp).
The four-cylinder diesel engine in the new BMW X2 sDrive18d (fuel
consumption combined: 5.5 – 5.1 litres/100 km [51.4 – 55.4 mpg imp];

upgrade. It produces maximum output of 110 kW/150 hp. All of the
combustion engines available for the new BMW X2 link up as standard
with a seven-speed Steptronic transmission with double clutch.
Optimum blend of agility and ride comfort, 21-inch light-alloy
wheels available for a compact BMW model for the first time.
The compact SAC’s sophisticated chassis technology produces a
perfectly harmonious balance between sporty, agile handling on the one
hand and long-distance comfort on the other. All the tools required
here are provided by a body construction that reduces weight while
increasing rigidity, a long wheelbase, wider tracks than the
predecessor model, and targeted upgrades to the single-joint spring
strut axle at the front and the three-link rear axle. Near-actuator
wheel slip limitation is fitted as standard in the new BMW X2,
benefiting both traction and directional stability. Other new features
include the integrated braking system and the extra, lift-related
damping at the front axle. The optional adaptive M suspension features
frequency-selective damping, sport steering and a 15‑millimetre drop
in ride height.
The new BMW iX2 xDrive30 rides as standard on 17-inch light-alloy
wheels with an aerodynamically optimised design. The BMW X2 sDrive20i
and BMW X2 sDrive18d models leave the factory on
18-inch
light-alloy wheels, while the new BMW X2 M35i xDrive comes with
20-inch M light-alloy wheels. Further light-alloy wheels ranging in
size from 18 to 21 inches are available as options.
State-of-the-art driver assistance systems for greater comfort
and safety.
The standard and optional assistance systems for automated driving
and parking available in the new BMW X2 increase comfort and safety
both in everyday driving and on longer journeys. Standard features
include the latest version of the front collision warning system,
