The #BMWX2 redesign has finally arrived and this time, #BMW has chosen to give the latest generation #X2 a more substantial interior with a lot of space and technology. Even the base engine, the #X2xDrive28i offers plenty of power and efficiency for most drivers seeking a higher dosage of driving fun, while also getting pretty efficient MPG numbers.

This is the German's way of paying tribute to the Pontiac Aztek

[@kyle223cat]

The X1 looks significantly better than the X2.

[@aye3678]

So true. This X2 is ugly!

[@MrVroom1]

Agreed. The X2 looks dreadful.

[@quantx6572]

Is this the German version of the 2001-2005 Pontiac Aztek?

[@jonwear9791]

BMW is bringing AZTEK Pontiac the Dead back to life!

[@DGray-qg7zt]

Amen!!! I said the same damn thang!!! And everyone hated itzz. And now…. Remember when chrysler first introduced the “ new cherokee” and that split headlight design and everyone hated it…. Now its on BURICK… kia.m, hyundai, chevy, cadillac……. I wanna know who these people are designing freshman year SCAD sketches and making em cars….

[@charlesyoung9980]

The front looks like a pissed off beaver!!

[@evanwatkins6902]

I never hop on the new car bandwagon of hating car designs but BMWs latest products are just really ugly

[@jeremymoore145]

I agree.

[@TheBreakfastLover]

BMW agreed and just changed over their design team.

[@dave_riots]

Those ugly designs are giving them sales

Except the X5M comp and m8

But bmw styling is subjective since it does so many other things well

[@DarEyezKnight]

BMW looks like LEGO front Grill.

[@thrash123ful]

BMW needs to make these hybrid.The X2 and the X1 would be perfect to make Hybrid to compete with the Cross Over market.

the design is what a 10 yr old would draw id they were asked to draw a bmw

[@Jojoba-wz6ri]

It looks like a toaster with wheels in that grey haha

[@tjbrice5997]

These new BMW center consoles are TRASH! Nothing but plastic and cheap materials. Bring back the late 90s & early 2000s era luxury look, feel and smell.

[@devin1229]

No ventilated seats. On a BMW. Pathetic.

[@rahimi4762]

You have to go up the lineup for that luxury.

A lot of models don’t have ventilated seats optioned, usually only heated

[@DominionAnako-bb7ry]

The design of the car, the car design process involves concept and research, design and development, engineering, powertrain and performance, interior design, testing and validation, manufacturing, and finally, launch and marketing.

[@cal7148]

Front looks like a Chevy Cruze, rear like the last gen Saab 9-5… woof

[@bigpapi88]

wait i thought the m35 was dct and the 8speed was the lexus transmission from aisin?

Yes Rowan, they're still insisting.

[@ricric8348]

How much $ to put a 2.5 liter compared to 2.0 for the manufacturing??

[@bobbowie9350]

The shell styled hood along with the wrapped around headlight housing never looks good.

[@MeastrasElKachelino]

X4 won't be discontinued, the plan is to make the X4 SUV in an all-electric model iX4, which could help it stand out against BMW’s gas-powered SUVs.

[@josephellis9629]

I brought my 17 teen year old son the X1 and I have to say, I enjoy drive the X1 more than my 24 - Audi RS7 or my wife’s 24 - BMW X5 M60i.

[@johnholst]

So ugly, even its mother would throw it out! This is truly hideous, imo.

is that a VW sourced engine? performance numbers have GTI/R vibe

[@Tinrs80]

i saw a BMW a week ago and thought the turns were malfunctioning too

[@mikeharris7261]

Old x2 looked better. This looks like it could be a subaru or Mitsubishi

[@ErvuJukl]

Awesome design. Love it 😊 👍

[@josephperry6990]

I’m not usually too critical on physical changes especially with new platforms, but this is UGLY. All I can say is thank goodness the designer stepped away and that there are new eyes and inspiration coming to BMW. This is an identity crisis.

[@mspeed2441]

I keep mistaking the X1 for the X3 or X5 on the road. Why buy the X2? Well, the X6 has sold 400K units. The X4 is selling 10K/annually. So, maybe that answers your question. Also, I drove them back to back, and the X2 smokes the X1 in both versions in every driving dynamic way. but, that's what it's supposed to do. The X1 is just boring to look at, but then, having had about 12 X3s vs 4 coupe SUVs, I still really love BMW coupe SUVs.

[@Kiss__Kiss]

While this Front drive architecture is not for me, I actually like the new X2 M35i design. Yes, Sofyan, I totally agree that it gives off that baby X4 vibe. Hopefully (But doubtful) this will make Audi bring the A3 Hatch back to the states, or S3 Hatch, to compete with the M35 variant.. But I understand, under that umbrella, the Golf R is there to sort of, fill that niche.

[@Unsalted375]

I usually don’t like new BMW designs but I actually love how this car looks. It’s really in your face and aggressive, reminds me of a small BMW XM

[@PPE707]

The side profile and rear is soooooooo ugly 😂

[@kmcclendon91]

It’s not a good looking car at any corner. BMW design team needs to go back to the drawing board, on a few of their newer models.

[@BB2001hjk]

why does it look so bad

[@jakeywakey4424]

This thing costs 50k?

[@chrisbianchi8876]

14 way seats? lol. Your car had an 8 way seat with no lumbar adjustment! BMW makes you pay an extra $250 for that. I think that's an important piece of information people should know. Oh well, at least we got another "slightly uphill" 0-60 time.

[@BertrandRacicot]

Hey BMW bring the X1 electric and the X1 PHEV! X2 don't look good.

[@TonyJelev]

Sadly the X2 seems to have better interior and build quality materials than the new X3

[@omidnamin9004]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 at this design. I can't believe bmw board just sits there and approves one monstrosity after another. this looks like you gave a kid some crayons and told them to draw a car for me

[@SRX2004]

Roof rails are a $250 option.

[@snacking5908]

Nice car

[@Cheezes101]

That is one weird looking car...especially that side 3/4 view from the front

[@erichernandez7553]

3:23 is what exactly BMW wants everyone to do.. to take a second look. The idea that everyone is looking at you when driving their cars is really part of their party tricks..kidneys and lines are also giveaways. But its a hatch-wagon.. I’d rather get the x5 or even x3 or down to x1 than this one.

[@jpm2793]

BMW is ruining their brand with this technology and new design language. They've rolled out idrive 8, 8.5 and 9 and all STILL have issues LOL.

[@kovalm3]

I actually like previous x2 more. Don't care for this look at all.

[@mnhsty]

To me, it’s ugly.

[@Palaemon44]

I took delivery of one of these earlier in the summer and even I think the exterior design is pretty ugly. It reminds me of one of those cute-ugly dogs like a Pug or French Bulldog. What surprises me is that some people have stopped me and complimented me on how great they think the car looks. The paint is a nice color, Cape York Green, but I’m baffled anyone actually thinks it looks good. I’m thinking BMW somehow got a batch of these people in their customer research sessions on future styling who go for this sort of “butch” look. 🤔I’m like, OK if you say so Pal.😂 Luckily I’m on the inside looking out instead of on the outside looking at it. I’m very happy with the car however, it’s a great replacement for my previous generation X1. Although it’s the same level on the product lineup it comes across as a significant upgrade. Interior design, materials, noise and vibration, handling, performance, seat comfort, fuel economy feel upscale. Even the door closure and exhaust note sound more expensive. Not quite at the level of my 5 series sedan but the improvement in quality feel was better than I expected. I was worried about the DCT performance but it turns out to be quite smooth, quick and seamless in operation, even in slow stop and go traffic. Complaints: Engine start up is sometimes harsh. The controls are also a little TOO responsive for something that isn’t a hard core sports car. The steering is much lighter than the other BMWs I have owned and it actually changes direction too quickly to the extent of being twitchy. Even the acceleration step off from a stop makes it tricky to avoid making jack rabbit starts. The non opening skylight instead of a real sunroof is useless unless you live in Northern Europe with a lot of gloomy days. The touch screen replacement of some button functions looks like where they cut costs and build complexity, but the voice commands work fine as an alternative. A plug in hybrid version would have been perfect. Overall it was a good purchase, and the dealer gave me a few thousand off the sticker when I ordered it.

[@rydgevilla8643]
