Expert 2021 BMW X2 review

Our expert's take
By Cars.com Editors
Full article

What Is the 2021 BMW X2?

The subcompact BMW X2 uses the same platform as the German automaker’s boxier (and more practical) X1 SUV. The five-seat X2, however, has a more coupelike roofline, which gives it a sportier appearance. It’s powered by the same 228-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine as the X1 and comes with an eight-speed automatic transmission and front- or all-wheel drive. A 301-hp, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder is available. Competitors include the Lexus UX,  Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class and Mini Clubman. 

What’s New on the 2021 BMW X2?

Satellite radio is now standard, and M35i versions produced from November 2020 on get a new mesh grille. 

What Features in the 2021 BMW X2 Are Most Important?

Standard features include: 

  • Power liftgate
  • Rain-sensing windshield wipers
  • Navigation with an 8.8-inch touchscreen
  • Apple CarPlay smartphone connectivity 
  • Forward collision warning with city collision mitigation
  • Lane departure warning

Available features include: 

  • Panoramic moonroof
  • Wireless device charging
  • Heated front seats 
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Harman Kardon surround-sound system 
  • Adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability

Should I Buy the 2021 BMW X2?

The BMW X2 is an intriguing mix of small SUV and, in M35i form, performance hatchback. Interior space is good considering its small size, but visibility is poor and power from the base engine is modest.

    very luxciourious

    The price of the car far out weighs the looks. It has very modern features Even lets you know when a pedestrian is crossing before you see them. The interior lights on the doors are changing neon lights (this is super cool)
