BMW M2 VS BMW M140i MPG

BMW M2 VS BMW M140i MPG is it that much different?
In Today's video I thought i'd talk about how the BMW M2 fairs against the BMW M140i and 240i on fuel, as it seems like a question that is asked frequently. For those who are looking to change from their M140i's and M240i's and want to know if the M2 is worse on fuel here's your answer. Naturally the next step from an mlite is an m car and one thing to take into consideration is the fuel, is the BMW M2 much worse? I don't think so.
I hope you all enjoyed the video and don't forget to like, comment and SUBSCRIBE!

What do you think of the M2 compared to the M140i and M240i?

[@manousosanapliotis7981]

M2 looks nuts but I believe B58 is a better engine.

[@realtorque]

@@manousosanapliotis7981 I agree. It is a stronger engine

[@johncoughlan5613]

I've got 42 on my mighty m2 on the motorway at 50 55 miles an hour, if I drive from the Republic of Ireland back to England through the A40 and no motorway I get about 30 33, anyway great video again, as Jeremy Clarkson said best m car they make today, and the looks are amazing, well done buddy great video..

[@realtorque]

That’s good going that! And thanks buddy I agree in awe with it

[@johncoughlan5613]

@@realtorque only thing I would change on mine are the m3 m4 mirror caps from auto I d in Essex , and possibly a stage 1 map, apart from that the cars just perfect, keep up the great videos, and congrats on getting your m2 you made a brilliant choice buddy.

[@realtorque]

@@johncoughlan5613 I’m looking to get the caps again also

@@realtorque yea do it buddy there roughly around 150 if I recall and they fit them on the day, it will set yours of a treat.

After 3 tanks of fuel mine has averaged out at about 19.9 mpg in my OG M2. Its alot heavier on juice than the old m235i I used to own. This is with mostly town driving but rarely putting my foot down in it. If you think these would be anything like an m lite on fuel consumption you would be mistaken. They are a good 10mpg worst around town with careful driving.

[@habat4ever]

@realtorque - Very knowledgeable video thank you :) One question I have in mind as you have (or still) own(ed) both the M2 OG and the M2C and I wish to buy either an M2A (OG) or M2B (LCI) or an M2C (Competition). Which one of those three (or two) is the stiffest ride OOTB? (no mod, no tune, just Out of the Box, probably looking at sport+ Mode)?

[@stewartmclean625]

Great video thanks chief! I have an M140 now and totally get why these cars are so popular 😍

[@realtorque]

Thanks buddy! Awesome cars

[@stewartmclean625]

@@realtorque absolutely get why you got your type R too! I was deciding between the two when I went for the bm, more because it’s a great daily with the auto but the type R is definitely a sharper tool for a Sunday blast I’d say!

[@realtorque]

@@stewartmclean625 they are both very good. Daily the m140i all day long, but the Type R was a seriously capable bit of quick. Would outrun much more expensive cars too for sure

[@AlexSeddon11]

Mine currently is doing 22.1 mpg with 80% mostly town/urban driving which is decent! I get 230miles per tank at £56 from empty, which lasts me just over a week. Only costing me about £150 a month in fuel. If you’re going to cover 12,000+ miles a year then they’re expensive. Drove to Cornwall from Manchester in October and got an unbelievable 37.2 average. (415miles) and didn’t drive like miss daisy (mostly 67mph) as when you climb over 75mph on the cruise you can expect to lose around 6/7mpg.

[@realtorque]

That’s not bad at all! I’m looking forward to my first proper trip to really test the mpg to be fair

[@MrHCars]

Spot the area he's cleaned to stick the GoPro on 😂 Another great vid mate! Definitely got more mpg in my M140, that extra 8th gear on the motorway used to let it cruise below 2k revs. But I didn't find it was night and day difference

[@realtorque]

😂😂😂 massive patch. Not a massive difference no, but when you’re pushing it hard, the m2 defo runs out of fuel a lot quicker haha

[@MrHCars]

@@realtorque For sure... I'm convinced I can see the needle moving downwards when pushing it, but then need to keep my eyes on the road 😂

[@realtorque]

@@MrHCars haha same here!

[@TheHesK9]

52mpg from the M140 doesn't surprise me. I once got 46mpg on an hour drive home. The B58 is an amazing engine

[@Mk4heavenHD]

Great video as always mate, M2 sounds sick!

[@realtorque]

Thanks buddy! It is addictive the noise

[@Mk4heavenHD]

@@realtorque I can imagine mate, I had my mates X6M for a few weeks and love that burble when you press hard and let off, it had an akrapovic exhaust too which really enhances it lol. I made a video on it kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6uTlWiqgMZ-mKs

[@realtorque]

@@Mk4heavenHD dam! Haha

[@tom_f87competition16]

For people wanting to compare a m140 to a comp m2, the fuel economy on the comp m2 is a good 10mpg worse. I’ve owned both before you ask

[@realtorque]

My dad says the same. The thing is, is with these m2’s it is so easy to get shit mpg 😂

[@Itsyourboy8329]

Sick vid mad keep them coming 😎

How much did insurance cost you? Looking at getting an M2

[@waldekedlaw]

What did you get before reset?

[@mixedmitchell9178]

Go on lad!!!!!

[@fbf01]

Great car but don’t like how BMW are doing their usual and offering these “cheap”. Everyone’s getting an M2 now. My good mates brother got one last month on a crazy deal!!!!!! Supposedly M2 will be no more and discontinued, so that why offering deals, surely doesn’t make sense!!!! Defo get more carbon on there 🤩

[@realtorque]

I know the deals are crazy! And yes I will be ahha

Be good to see a side by side with your mates M140i like you did with your FK8 😉

This is a great idea! Think that may be on the agenda for next week!

@@realtorque Great, can’t wait!

[@markyw7954]

Nobody buys an M or baby M car for the mpg lol....if you think about that get a 118d

[@realtorque]

😂😂😂

[@adamg3938]

Would you recommend buying an M2?

[@realtorque]

Yes buddy 100% best m car in my opinion

[@frankwizard7496]

@@realtorque I got an m140i and having owned for 3 months I finally understand the m lite/m car differences. You mention best m car but on what basis compared to the m3 m4 m5? Cheers

[@realtorque]

@@frankwizard7496 thanks for the comment buddy, it’s just the overall feel of the car. In my opinion it looks the smartest, it’s an extremely well set up car (easy to drive quickly and put sideways, and very balanced) and has characteristics of its older brothers. It responsive, nibble, quick doesn’t have a hefty price tag like other m cars and gives you everything that you need. As well as not costing an arm and leg to maintain given it doesn’t have a proper m car engine. I think for £30k (which you can pick these up for) no other cars other the same amount fun, speed, comfort and ability all in one package. The m3/m4/m5’s are much heavier cars, and you can feel that straight away

[@frankwizard7496]

@@realtorque appreciate the in depth answer! That all makes sense now. I haven’t driven any of the m cars but thankfully the m2 is closer to reality than say an m5. Cheers again pal👍🏼

Jeez if fuel economy is top of your list perhaps an M car isn't for you....

I’m finding the m2c thirstier than my Og

Are you? I think it’s down to it having a proper m car engine now as opposed to the OG with the n55
