The excellent eight-speed automatic transmission delivers fast shifts smoothly and always seems to be in the right gear. Throwing it in Sport also makes the engine, transmission and exhaust more lively. We love the aggressive exhaust soundtrack that’s full of crackles and pops - the sound combined with how quickly it catapults you forward is impressive stuff. As for the M35i, that’s where things really start to get exciting. That’s one quick crossover. The X2 is stiffer than the X1 and equipped with one of three suspension setups that range from base to M Sport, the latter of which is lower and stiffer, to fully adaptive dampers that are even lower but offer a range of options to dial in firmer settings. Instead, it's lower and rather car-like. The X2’s roof is shapelier and lower by 2.8 inches, but the X2 doesn’t share many design similarities with the bigger X4 and X6.The 2020 BMW X2 xDrive28i looks a bit like a car and its lower driving position is similar to that of a car, so it shouldn't be surprising that it also drives more like a car than an SUV. Both the X2 sDrive28i (front-wheel drive) and xDrive28i (all-wheel drive) come standard with a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four that makes 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The higher-output X2 M35i uses a 2.0-liter turbo-4 that makes 302 hp and shaves more than one second from the 0-60-mph dash. All three versions use a 2.0-liter turbo-4 and 8-speed automatic for propulsion. Lane-departure warnings became standard equipment in 2018; in 2019, BMW's added standard automatic emergency braking. The 2020 BMW X2 comes standard with front collision warning, low-speed automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning and automatic highbeams. The 2020 BMW X2 has an interior that is fitting of a small, luxury crossover. What’s interior and in-car technology like?
Considering a non-luxury vehicle like the surprisingly luxurious Mazda CX-5 is a good idea too. The base engine makes 228 horsepower, which is good enough for a 6.3-second sprint up to 60 mph. Tack on enough options, and the M35i balloons over $50,000. BMW is big on offering a ton of options, but you get a fair amount of standard equipment for that price. What features are available and what’s the price? BMW doesn’t offer a bunch of different trims for the X2, but the all-wheel drive xDrive model bumps the price up by $2,000 to $39,395. Fuel economy for the front-wheel drive X2 tops out at 23 mpg city, 32 mpg highway and 26 mpg combined. Still, it's important to check out the segment's other strong entries, including the Volvo XC40 and all-new 2019 Audi Q3. The 2020 BMW X2 is on the smaller side of crossovers, falling into what is considered the subcompact crossover segment along with vehicles like the Volvo XC40, Range Rover Evoque, Lexus UX, Mercedes GLA and Audi Q3.
We think that's a good thing, as it gives it a leg up in this segment. BMW received a Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, with "Good" ratings in all the crashworthiness sections. What are the safety equipment and crash ratings? We expect that score to rise once official safety data is made available. The X2 always has been a sportier version of the X1, this year’s X2 M35i variant makes it official. Some may like the X1, others may prefer the X2. This low roof does reduce headroom compared to the X1, but not so much that your head will be touching the headliner. Compared to those “coupe” crossovers, the X2 is more rounded and its details aren’t as lucious, but admittedly the X2 is less expensive at roughly $37,000 to start. Where the X1 succeeds at being a fun but utilitarian crossover, the X2 offers more performance, more distinctive style and more controversy. That BMW offers choice in this growing segment can't be viewed as a bad thing, however. Android Auto is not available and BMW uniquely offers Apple CarPlay only as an optional subscription. Apple CarPlay compatibility is free for the first year, $80 for each year following the first year.
