An innovative and groundbreaking model within the range of the Bavarian brand, with great international impact, is the BMW X2 mini SUV that arrives in Nepal almost simultaneously with the start of its commercialization in Europe.
Las tres marcas premium alemanas –Audi, BMW y Mercedes-Benz– están embarcadas desde hace tiempo en una carrera enloquecida: compiten por el liderazgo en ventas mundiales de autos de lujo, pero también por ver quién ofrece la gama de modelos más completa, en un intento por cubrir todos los nichos posibles del mercado.
A smaller version of the X1 SUV, it is this small crossover that marks a little more aggression to driving dynamics. The standard engine is the same turbocharged four-cylinder as in the X1, but the X2's slightly sharper handling makes it more fun to drive on a winding road.
Unlike the BMW X1 2021, the brand offers the X2 with a 302-hp four-potentiometer motor, making it a high-performance, fire-breathing machine. The most daring bodywork is that of the X2 and the faster roof line, but there are a few weaknesses, the interior space is more limited here for both people and cargo. But those crossover buyers who value performance above all else will find the X2 more desirable than its more boxy brother.
Engine, transmission and performance
The X2 shares its standard powertrain with the boxier X1. It consists of a 228-hp turbocharged four-cylinder, an eight-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. BMW calls this model sDrive28i; The engine is charming: eager to accelerate, silky smooth and with a lot of courage. On the track, the X2 xDrive28i can pull off a decent 6.4-second run at 60 mph; that's 0.1 second behind the X1 xDrive28i.
Fuel economy and MPG in the real world
The X2 doesn't boast the highest fuel economy ratings in its segment, but it's still pretty efficient. Front-wheel drive models earn up to 32 mpg on the highway, while all-wheel drive X2s are rated up to 31 mpg. In our tests, however, the X2 outperformed itself, scoring 36 mpg on our 200-mile highway fuel economy route. We achieved just 29 mpg in the all-wheel drive X1.
Interior, comfort and cargo
While the X2's interior design isn't as expressive as its exterior, the cabin is well-appointed and well-built. The driving position is excellent and all the X2's controls are within easy reach of the driver. Headroom in the rear seats is tight, but otherwise the passenger comfort should be acceptable to most people.
