2024 BMW X2 spy shots
BMW's X2 compact crossover combines its compact size with a tall seating position and high ground clearance, making it a great alternative to the premium hatchbacks typically found outside the U.S. New to the lineup in 2018, a redesigned version will soon The following is a list of the new models in the lineup.
A prototype of the next-generation X2 has been spotted again, suggesting a more coupe-like design than the current generation with slant roof. Other details like the headlights and grille are similar to the design seen on the redesigned BMW X1 in 2023, and the car shares the same suspension.
These underpinnings are the latest version of the BMW Group's FAAR platform for front-wheel drive vehicles. We know that the new X1 is longer and wider than its successor, and the new X2 is likely to be the same.
The interior design should match the interior of the new X1 and likewise match the interior of the latest 2 Series Active Tourer sold overseas. The instrument cluster no longer has a traditional hood. Instead, the instrument cluster stands alone as a floating screen and is joined by a second screen for the infotainment system. The traditional upright gear lever has been replaced by a small nub integrated into the center armrest extension.
The X2 is currently available in the U.S. in two grades, the X2 xDrive28i and X2 M35i, each powered by a 2.0-liter turbo four with 228 hp and 302 hp, respectively. Expect the same grade to be offered in the new X2, but perhaps with slightly more horsepower. The new X1 xDrive28i grade makes 241 hp, and a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic and all-wheel drive have also been confirmed, both of which should be available in the new X2.
The current X2 is available with an xDrive25e plug-in hybrid grade overseas, but it remains to be seen if the new X2 will offer such an option. It is also not clear whether an electric iX2 will be available, although the new X1 spawned the iX1 electric car, which claims 308 hp and a range of 250 miles. However, the electric X1 has not been confirmed for sale in the United States.
The new X2 is expected to arrive in late 2023 or early the following year as a 2024 model. Prices should start in the low $40,000 range.
There were rumors of an X2 convertible, but such a body style no longer appears to be planned.
