2018 BMW X2 - Review & Road Test

- Not exactly a coupe, not exactly an SUV, the X2 is BMW's latest alphanumeric model offering. The X2 is comparatively sporty compared to the X1 SUV on which it's based. But does the style of the diminutive X2 come with any substance?
For the latest BMW X2 pricing and information:

After a year and a half of ownership we couldn't be happier. It fits our needs perfectly: fun to drive, enough of a cargo hauler, good gas mileage, very comfortable front seats and a real looker. I imagine you can get a pretty darn good deal on one. We did!
I wanna buy this car. Do you recommend??
Any update?
I own this car and I love everything about it
I’ve had my white X2 for a few weeks and we really like it for a daily driving car. I wanted something smaller than an X1 and this was perfect. I wasn’t a fan until seeing it in person and driving it.
Chowder how much is the oil change for the x2?
Do this Turn signals work in this one ???
Never seen BMW drivers use turn signals.
naxT890 they do but its an additional charge.
😂🤣😂
other drivers need to buy that option to see the BMW turn signal :D
Mine have never worked. But I haven't bothered to check.
It's actually more dangerous for me to use turn signals... when I do, people freeze and go into shock.
Idk why i watch kbb reviews, even though im broke af
99% of the subscribers are the same :)
your day will come bro
Buy bitcoin and after couple of months you can afford this car ;)
Its free to dream.
Dreams come true.
This is one of the few recent BMWs that I like.
Drove it today but that blind spot is brutal
Omg this vehicle is so stylish! I would definitely buy this!
So amazing !!! The BMW Badge on the side reminds me of how the M1 had them on the back of it!! Looks like a limited edition!!
That blindspot is so huge
I suppose manufacturers' marketing/product development departments know what they're doing, but I just wonder about the efficacy of providing so many - finely parsed - crossover models.
Omar S, I wonder when the BMW minivan is coming.
Well, I have to say I wish the public's perception of minivans wasn't so negative. I think they're wonderfully versatile and comfortable. A slick looking and driving BMW minivan might do a good job to redeem the minivan's reputation! :D
Omar S, To be clear, I have absolutely nothing against the Ultimate Parenting Machine also known as the minivan, it is BMWs that I object to. A new BMW minivan would certainly be good news for Fiat/Chrylser as they would likely be displaced from the bottom of the reliability rankings by the Bavarian van.
It actually looks pretty good... Impractical and expensive, but wouldn't mind picking it up in a few years used
I’m not a huge fan of BMWs designs of late, but I actually really like the looks of the X2.
Umm android auto is wireless in my Chevy cruze diesel too...and it isn't $300
His review is never boring
I had one for a loaner, that blind spot was a bit scary!
I have a loaner right now. And you're absolutely correct
KBB is great
jarforsythe Korean barbecue?
I love it, I want it, I love it!
37k?! Or just buy a used X5 that is faster and has more tech than the X2. We got our fully loaded 2014 X5 with 24k miles just for 26k. It has blind spot monitoring, dual climate control, rear heated seats, and 0-60 in 6sec. Gotta love depreciation.
I wish luxury car brands would realize that plastic doesn’t equal sporty. Plastics equal a cheap or cheaper feeling and when it’s starts to fade the resell value comes to mind
Please review a Lexus NX 300 basic version
"X-ray Deuce" is pretty funny! Great review as always.
Everyone who complains about price, options, value, wha, wha, wha is just doing so to make themselves feel better for not being able to afford it. Just please everyone shut up and go buy your mazda cx-5 or whatever and look exactly like everyone else. Nothing wrong with buying a car if personally you think it looks cool and it fits your lifestyle. I am not ashamed to say I will buy this car next year because it has a BMW badge and the design stands out.
Exactly my thought ;)
they need to make blind spot available on x1 & x2
Maxda 6 2018 turbo review plz??
I’m personally looking forward to the inevitable X2.5 xSdrive GranSedan, a coupe-like SUV based on a sedan platform but with re-introduced sedan proportions.
Needs the badge on the C pillar to differentiate it from all the other similar looking SUV’s.😎
This car needs more BMW badges. One on the roof, one on each side view mirror, and one on each door. I think that should cover most viewing angles.
Can someone tell me where to look for the paint code in x2 as i cant find it .plse help as i cant find it
They charge 37K for the 'base' FWD model. When, oh when will the BMW bubble finally burst?
Omg thank you! That’s all I needed to see was the blind spot.
Nice fun reviews man!
All I hear is options, options, options
UGH LEXUS NX AND LINCOLN MKC ARE X3 CLASS
I love that side BMW logo, it's what sets it apart.
BMW should put collision warning as standard. Why they omit this is baffling.
Is gray trim the new luxury standard?! I'm seeing gray trim all on these luxury cars now
Great review
Looking forward to the KBB Lexus UX review once it goes on sale later this year, seems like it's in the same class as this X2
Swerve the UX will probably crap all over the X2’s short party. Lexus really can’t be beat, their quality is too high.
Are turn signals a $300 option?
X Ray Deuce! Thanks for a good review and great laughs as always. I DO like the Roundels on the exterior C pillars. This is a nice looking vehicle, smaller than the standard BMW, bloated, fare.
Micah height goes up every video. He’s now 5’10
According to my drivers license I'm 5' 10". Let's stick with that.
Micah Muzio I swear Micah that I heard you in one of your reviews say that you are 5 ‘7. But the driver license can’t be wrong so we will go with that
He’s always been 5’10” :/
That thing looks incredibly claustrophobic
TurboFerret87 it is. I’m not claustrophobic, but it was very uncomfortable to be in
i dont think so for a small suv it is pretty spacious
i own one and i like it a lot
I love it!!!
THE OFF-ROADING CLIP 😂😂😂😂
Single dad lost mom nearly three years ago so this cuv is good and it sits higher then soul and being six foot three that is required
man everything that seems like it should be "standard" are all optional in this. When you try to add stuff things that should be "Standard" I think this car is way too overpriced
John Ji I agree
That's how bimmers roll
Gotta pay for prestige
#AnsrMax Blake that’s how German cars work in general
that KBB ad was awsm
Note the 1600/1800/2002 shirt.
I don’t even have my driving license yet and I watching lmao Idk why 😂
1:08 LOL That's just like me in the small claustrophobic cars.
Gorgeous design!
I'm broke but i love kbb reviews 😌
Nice report. BMW owner becoming less thrilled with BMW
What's the most cloud like soft riding car?
ramnneek singh s550
consolence s lol that's too expensive
I thought the competitor from Lexus would be the new UX
up to how many miles this car can last?
Still no Android Auto on 2019 model wtf ???
I don't think Coupe means what it use to mean....
Or one could just buy a KIA Soul Turbo and save about $15,000-$20,000 and have a more practical small CUV, which is still fun. This car is all vanity.
Also, the Kia will outlast this German POS by 10 years.
Vanity? Of course it is...it is a car, right?
If you bought the Kia, you’d have worse materials quality, louder road and wind noise, the doors probably sound like cheap metal clunking together when you close them, less options, and the car isn’t as premium.
Of course you could spend a significant amount less for the Kia, but you’re getting significantly less of a car 😂
Michael Dooby nonetheless it will still be as safe if not safer according to crash tests, cheap to run and repair, and more reliable on the long run.
Nabil M that’s a perfectly valid point; I agree with you on all of that. But the BMW is a luxury car. Luxury cars aren’t just supposed to get you from point a to point b. They’re supposed to be extra
blind spot isnt even available on a $40000 suv
Gold absolute president presence rest what therapist vision.
I really don't like cars like this. I get that people want SUVs and crossovers but this is neither of those things. It's (like the GLA) a taller hatchback that drives worse. These are mostly bought by millennials (young people in general) but I don't see the car being terribly useful compared to say, the X1, which is larger, more practical, and cheaper.
hot kicks Micah!
WOW Jersey looks great atm! ROFL
Damn I was thinking about buying this until the premium gas
It looks better than the Q2.
At first I thought he said starts at $87,000 and my jaw hit the floor
Anybody else think that the new X2 looks like the old X1 if it was just modernized?
Pleasing materials, staylish layout..wait, whats the point of this car again ?
If you're wondering why it has a New Jersey LP, it's cause these are made in the East coast. Not in Germany...just saying 🤷
SN: this one has functional turn signals.
TRD jojo this car is assembled in Regensburg, Germany. Fair point on the turn signals though.
No bmw USA is located in woodcliff lake nj
Shadowcu123 no....this car is assembled in Regensburg, Germany alongside the X1. I looked at the MSRP sticker myself. The X3 and X5 are assembled in USA.
all the idea of bmw are hatch,sedab(coupe) or touring...
yea!!!
wait, it has BMW badges on the SIDES of the car? WTF LMAO.......
The interior doesn't even look like a Bimmer, and frankly the exterior looks like a Mazda with the Bimmer nose slapped on.
Gosh it’s like we’re watching some bad movie with body horror where cars all morph into crossovers and try to become CrossSportCoupeEverythingX. This is yet another new model. Although not bad looking, its size and sector is caught in the middle of everything. Sadly everyone in America is buying this crossover craze no matter how overpriced or compromised.
Dainty off-roading...well said.
Spare tire? Oh, "a small upcharge."BMW' s nickname.
I’ll take the Volvo XC40 R Line.
Is this a boring vehicle?
its got Kona Kladding!
I mean, I guess this will appeal moms/dads who want a higher riding crossover regardless of other specs. I still don't get why people like these things, but given how even the industry leaders released their own awkward "crossovers" (Toyota C-HR, Honda HR-V)... I guess they're selling? Oh well.
no blind spot assist!!!!!!! thats pathetic BMW! I drove one yesterday and the blind spot is huge. also, the arm rests are too high on the door. aside from those two issues the car is great but they're fatal flaws which is why I chose not to get this car.
I wanna buy this car. Do you recommend??
It is not coup. Coup is where you keep you chickens. It is called coupe with an accent
I don't know. More for smaller folks.
Why no Android Auto wtf ):
1. create a hatchback
2. put some black plastic on the doors and around the wheels and call it an SUV
3. ...??
4. profit
This is a rival of the 2018 Volvo XC40
XC40 for sure
Paul Yuen I have the xc90. Love Volvo.
Micah 🤗🤗
no bsm i'll wait
No BSM...SMH...sad.
Not Coup, its pronounced Cou-pay...
Gotta armwrestle this guy!
I must admit to liking the looks, but I couldn’t deal with spendings $53K on a car with no BSM.
Test drove one today at Carmax, it was a looker, but once at the test drive, all of it's faults reveal itself. It's missing items that cam standard on our 2019 Accord like BSM, automatic stop, AAC, etc...
NJ Plates .... hmmmm
I like this car in a vacuum, but the Golf Gti\R run 26,000 - 42,000 and are better all around cars.
No blind spot, I’m out.
its the BMW GLA!!
I can't believe KBB did that shredded this thing to the bone. I'm a fan of BMW but this is a hot mess. Yikes and the price.
I don't understand why bmw would build this and for whom would buy it
50k for a dressed mini... for real...
It is stunning how much people will pay for a plastic BMW covered in plastic BMW badges.
Yes, a loaded mini is about 38k
