“The BMW X2 is a fun SUV that is not too big, not too small, but is just right. It rides very comfortably, handles well, accelerates with pep, and is fun to drive. The styling is distinctive, unlike any other small SUVs on the road today.”
2025 BMW X2: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The 2025 BMW X2 is a light-update model, with heated front seats becoming standard across the lineup. Otherwise, it carries over largely unchanged after its full redesign for 2024.
About the 2025 BMW X2
2nd generation (U10), second model year after the all-new 2024 redesign.
BMW positions the X2 as the more style-led sibling to the X1: a compact luxury SUV with a lower, sloping roofline, bold coupe-like shape, and a strong emphasis on digital tech. The pitch centers on mixing everyday utility with a more dramatic design and a sportier image than a traditional small SUV. Standard all-wheel drive, a modern curved display, and strong turbo-four performance are the model’s main differentiators.
The xDrive28i is the everyday-focused X2, pairing a 241-hp turbocharged engine and standard AWD with a curved dual-screen dashboard, built-in navigation, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The 312-hp M35i is the performance version, with a sport-tuned suspension, stronger brakes, sport seats, an illuminated grille, and quad exhaust outlets.
What changed, by category
