New BMW 2 Series Active Tourer Review & Road Test

[@jamesv8063]

First review of yours that I have seen. Found it refreshingly honest. Have ordered the U06. Thank you AJ.

I just bought two days ago the 220i mild hybrid version full equipped in white and I’m so excited waiting delivery by end this week. I feel lucky because I ignored this model while I was refusing other brands because their “impositions “ to accept leather option (which I hate) linked mandatory to my choice for a sun roof. ie, Lexus, Mazda, Volvo, Honda, etc. And I’m so glad that BMW lets much more flexibility to choose options so freely. Re the owner’s book, I always prefer physical reading than electronic. It is so boring some times, that I prefer to take it home and read or to park in a quiet place and reading, testing, during a couple of hours to get used. Each time I get a new car I do it so.😅 Very good your review!! Rgds from Spain.

One of the best reviews I’ve seen for a long time.

[@Paulruk]

Good clear review thanks

My 230e should be delivered in about a month from now. Can't wait. That 230e is really something else. I'm rather a sports car guy (driving an AR Giulia Veloce petrol for the time being), but owning powerful cars is simply becoming too expensive due to the heavy taxes (and the safety cameras, especially the nasty section control ones). And moreover, I'm slowly getting too old to loose my driver's licence... :-D Excellent footage, great analysis. Keep up the good work! Greetings from Belgium

I just got mine yesterday. You'll have good fun with it! 😊

[@stephenhudd7721]

Drove one last week. Brilliant car. On the shortlist.

[@Hurdy_guy]

Excellent review and mirrors my feelings on the car. I bought the top spec 230e x-drive Msport PHEV version and am over the moon with it. Quick, frugal and quality I’d forgotten was actually available. Only two questions……did you drive the top spec version and if so what did you think of it?

[@AJThePlayerYouTubeChannel]

Yes, Top of the range was superb & fully loaded. As I said in the video I wouldn’t bother with the heads up display, but everything else is on that car was necessary.

[@guywerb]

Happy to hear you're happy with your 230e. Mine should be arriving next month. Can't wait to try the boost function... 😀

[@nickdoughty518]

If you have SatNav functioning how do you control other functions of the car if it's all touch screen now?

[@rob5896]

I though BMW's had voice activation no need to use the touch screen? I think the finger prints would drive me nuts so voice activation would be a good idea to help with that problem.

[@samlj7025]

Good vid !

[@ukcarver]

Thank you I enjoyed your review, I am expecting to take delivery of the 225e model in a country of weeks so it was good to see what you thought of the car. Did you try out the voice control.

[@peterb6723]

Very good vid thanks I learnt a great deal and I will go and have a test drive , interested what you were saying re run flats. do you like then , they seem a bit controversial. what's your opinion

[@mathieutrunel5784]

Great vidéo but what is the color ?? Thanks from France

[@guywerb]

C'est le gris Storm Bay. Perso, je pense que c'est un coloris à réserver plutôt aux modèles plus sportifs. Greetings from Belgium. ;-)

[@francescomisuraca6277]

I do like BMW 👍

[@jukeboxjohnnie]

Good grief, im so annoyed if that big thick manual isnt in the car, when I need to change a bulb or change a setting the last thing I want is to be poking around on a phone app to find the answer, I want to look it up in a physical manual

[@tonycr0130]

I want a physical owner manual. I hate the built in manual in my Volvo XC40.

[@badgastein2]

😅😅Paper Handbook is standard

[@vitalmakhdum]

That intro is way too long. Good review though

[@jimj2683]

If they could build an attractive fiat multipla with the 6 seats...

[@Hiddenwork123]

What is the colour?

[@Khardius]

storm bay

[@n.b.2385]

I would buy one although with the mild hybrid diesel. I will write on the rear windshield the following: There isn't anything better that front wheel drive,just to annoy all tyre smoking orthodox bmw fans.

[@Andrei-kh6kr]

put the phone with the bottom upside on the charging pad. there you go. problem solved.

[@apolitis1]

3yr warranty for a car that costs 30k+ is unacceptable in this economy. Most ppl change cars after 3 years? Seriously? You live in a bubble mate

[@trader548]

Kia offer 7 years, Hyundai 5 yrs, Toyota offer 10 yrs if you service your car there every 12 months, even MG offer 7 years manufacturer warranty. There's no excuse for a quality brand like BMW to offer 3 years warranty, it should be 5 years minimum if they have any faith in their products.
