An excellent review and video, guys. Super. I'm coming off of an X3 M lease and was initially heading upward to an X6 M, maybe the light version, but when I saw the early videos on the X2 M35i last Fall, I "ordered" a Vegas Red one with every package and option, like my X3 has. Priced just over 60K USD, it's one heck of a deal, particularly contrasted with almost-similar models from M-B AMG or Porsche. Yes, less than 1/2 the price of the X6 I configured to order. A "Baby X6" perfect for an older gentleman. It's too bad that no dealer I've found has anything but partially equipped X2s. Mine could almost be unique. It's been three months since the soft "order' and deposit. The release was just last Monday. How long might I wait? Another three months? Okay, all the reviews strongly suggest that it will be worth it. Good job, again, M & D.
Can we admire the interior design layout? 😄 the USB ports & wireless phone charger has an edge to it so people won’t get those areas wet with their drinks. Nice! I also like the floating center console design. Gear shift selector will grow on us though lol
I don’t understand why BMW and a few others don’t include adaptive cruise and instead make it part of an option group. Audi has started to include it as standard on everything but the base trims.
BMW is weird like that. My previous Gen X2 came with park assist (car will park itself) but you couldn't have it with BSM no matter how much money was available in your checkbook. But Audi is weird as well. Right now they charge an effective $5,500 more on a Q3 if you want wireless Apple carplay. This is due to the 2 packages you have to have in order to get the wireless carplay option. Going from the base Premium Q3 to a Premium Plus Q3 they charge $3,000, & all that gets you is multi-color ambient lighting inside the car & a 360-degree overhead camera... that is literally it. Then if you want wireless Apple Carplay you have to fork out another $2,500 for the Tech Package. That's nuts.
It’s really because you can customize it… which you can’t with other brands. Basically expect the price to go up by at least $20K depending on options for BMW and just as much for Mercedes and Porsche if not significantly more
Well it's certainly not boring lol but it's inexcusable that manufacturers are cheaping out on rear wipers, especially at this price point. But regardless, great video guys!
Looks good. 😮 How does the interior feel like compared to a Series 3? I have two kids so back seat doesn't have to be that big, but cargo space is important. I have a series 3 and the trunk is very good for me. .
Informative review. I like the format. The resale/reliability section is a good way to close the video. SUGGESTION. When discussing the features of the car I think talking about the things that are not included is helpful. An example would be when you mentioned that the rear seats are not heated and do not recline. Everyday details that people may not realize until after they purchase the car like the fact that this car probably requires premium fuel? Thanks guys!
Priced a bit too comfortably at 54k for 4 cylinder compact BMW. I'd like to see how it performs with 4 or 5 adults and some cargo in the back. It's a nice design, apart from the horrible dash. Those huge black bezels/bars/blank spaces on screen is very distracting, need a little hood over the dash to make it feel more integrated less slapped-on.
I really don’t get that large, plastic black “lip” below the grill. Just body color and smaller trim at the bottom would make this car look a lot better.
Très franchement la 2em génération du x2 oui mes ya 2 ou 3 truc à corrigé déçu ( la calandre sortie d'échappement sur les bas de gamme) donc voilà cet un peu ça
I'm sure it's a nice car but it's sad BMW did this. They took something in their lineup that was unique & a true option for folks (a hot hatch) & got rid of it in favor of something they already had & is better in the fact it's a straight 6 vehicle, which is the X4. Also hate the fact a lot of nobs are gone in this gen X1 & X2. VW already had to relent & pull back from some of that, shame BMW didn't learn from VAG's erroneous ways with the haptic feedback & drilling down into submenus way of operating the car.
They got me looking at Benz now why the back look like yall camping ⛺️ outside they should’ve just asked Lexus to upgrade they front lol give fire tv back they remote
a 5 door cross over will never be a "coupe". I realize Europeans are very liberal in every sense, including how they classify vehicles but NO. My wife's Tiguan is not a Coupe, it can't just identify as a coupe or a roadster or a saloon, it's a 5 door CUV meaning that it's really just a traditional wagon (5 doors) with extra ground clearance and a "tough-looking" exterior.
On a technicality, the head room would be much worse if you had the optional panoramic roof 🤷♂️ Talking reliability on new vehicles is also unreliable statistics because vehicles have been getting more and more recalls then ever before every year🤷♂️ The front design looks weird and the non chrome silver makes it look very cheap, and from the black trim above the exhaust and up just looks very confusing. It looks like they put 2 taillights on the car and either 1 of them could be removed and still look normal, also the back is oddly flat and gives it a very weird look. The exhaust looks good and gives it an aggressive (Design) but let’s be honest with our selves. The 4 banger ain’t winning any awards for sounds or quickness😅 it’s just a look.
I see your point… at first I liked the design of the X4 and X2 much better because I have not seen a coupe design on an SUV before. It really just looks like a big hatch back, not as boxy as an SUV. I think I like the look of the Macan a bit better and the functionality of an X1 or X3 is pretty handy. The X2 is also super aggressive and the X4 comes with the 6-cylinder (M40i)… but the a 300hp 4-cylinder? That’s pretty good… great in the city or highway. X1 is pretty practical and not as boxy as a GLB either. But compared to a GLA 35 I might go for the GLA over the X1 or X2
@@SCraig-Handsome go and see gla and the horrible interior quality. I was looking both and x1-x2 are by far the most premium car and than more expensive competitors such as q3 sportback and gla
Oh, you're interested in the 2024 BMW, huh? Well, let me tell you, BMW always brings some amazing cars to the table. The 2024 lineup is sure to be no exception. With their sleek designs, top-notch performance, and cutting-edge technology, BMWs are known for delivering an exhilarating driving experience. Whether you're looking for a sporty coupe, a luxurious sedan, or a versatile SUV, BMW has something for everyone. So, if you're considering a 2024 BMW, get ready to turn heads and enjoy the thrill of the road! 🚗💨
All of BMWs new car design are terrible. I've been a long time fan of BMWs and how they looked but to be frank, basically all their cars from 2023 and newer just look so weird, like I have no idea what look they're trying to go for. They just kinda look like... What the heck happened
BMW is like Toyota, they’re more engineers than stylists that’s why it’s not much better looking than a Toyota. I’ve got one of these in shipping because functionally it works great, fits what I need, and I’ve loved my previous and current BMWs. Luckily I’ll be inside it driving, so I won’t be looking at the “meh” outside much. (Also the dealer made me a good deal)
I don’t get BMW…..the interior dash hasn’t really changed for a decade! It looks dated and brings down the whole design concept. Compare this to the Mercedes GLC 300 Coupe……far superior.
BMW looks, especially the front, just....just....are NOT attractive. This one at least I wouldn't barf looking at every morning like the "pig nose" , but Benz and Audi are just uniformly beautiful up front. I will say though the interior space and cargo utility blows the M235i Gran Coupe out the water and +100 to BMW for the excellent quad tips. I would strongly consider this for wifey as we are coming out of a 2017 Alfa Giulia soon and while she loves the Alfa handling, she wants something easier to get into/out of.
I legitimately don’t know anyone not retired that likes these vehicles. My compact car is more practical than this thing, and it looks so proportionally fucked. It’s just everything that is design for human pleasure and conscience taken away. I literally don’t get it
This SUV BMW X2 M35i is the best exterior and interior BMW style design ever. For example: the 7 series sedans are truly ugly inside and x7 series are super ugly outside.
I don’t like what they did to this Bimmer!!! It’s gone from classy to trashy!!! It looks straight up ugly!!! I love Bimmers because I’m a phat yammed ebony queen but this one isn’t for me boo boo!!!!

I like the new added features to your reviews concerning pricing, reliability and resale value. Excellent additions to your already great reviews!
Love it! Get mine Thursday
How is it? M35i right?
It’s very nice and different!
I wouldn`t mind driving one of those around town. And that comes from an M850i, X5 50e and Z4 M40 i owner.
50e and 850i both really beautiful cars. congrats!
I just love watching your video reviews 💌
Great that you added new section for Resale & Reliability!!!

Who designed that center console storage? Why not just make a deep storage bin, instead of that pass through? 😂
Less material = less cost
I really want Lexus to makes coupes like this - in terms of shapes , similar to the Benz GLE coupes
Rx300 😂
The iluminated front grill is available in USA or not?
this car has weird proportions, its like it wants to be big but its not there yet
Is the DCT jerky at slow speeds? Other reviewers say that from a stop, the DCT is very rough and jerky. Thanks.
Most DCTs can be temperamental at lower speeds. This X2 handles pretty well in standard drive mode from what we sampled
Excellent review as per usual!

I’ll take one!
Is it me or does this model have that late 80's Quattro vibe...yeah, I like it a lot.
That's a neet little car. My son would like it. I just might go look at this. I've been looking at the x6 this past month.

Back half of it looks like it was finished off by college interns. Rear looks like an Acura
They shouldve changed the X4 too
The should have made a baby x6
The belt line is way to high in most of the new vehichles. You all look like driving heads.
Quad pipes but sounds like a vacuum cleaner. Seriously?
BMW should be ashamed to charge extra for auto start! Everyone includes auto start these days.
LEGO car design 😂
Got to be honest I don't like this new model,prefer the first iteration.
Love the design
I thought this was an alpha Romeo 😭
I was sold on this car until I saw the center console. Hard pass
