Is the 2025 BMW X2 a Good SUV?
"The X2 is the only so-called 'SUV coupe' in the subcompact size class, and unlike most of its larger faux-coupe peers, it's actually almost as practical as its X1 SUV platform-mate. Despite the more rakish rear roofline, the X2 only loses about 10% of the X1's maximum cargo capacity. So if you like the way it looks, know that it does a decent impression of a full-fledged subcompact SUV in terms of versatility, too."—Ranked #3 out of 12 Subcompact Luxury SUVs

1. 2025 BMW X2 xDrive28i (2.0T All-Wheel Drive)
- Base Price: $42,450
- MPG Combined: 28
- Drive Type: All-wheel drive
- Engine: 2.0-liter inline-4
- Aspiration: Turbocharged
- Transmission: 7-speed automated manual
- Horsepower: 241
- Torque: 295 lb-ft
- 0-60: 6.2 sec
- Weight: 3,803 lbs
- Length: 179.3 in
- Towing Capacity: N/A
We're not against so-called "SUV coupes" in general, but the X2 doesn't make a strong case for itself relative to the mechanically identical — and handsome-in-its-own-right — X1. The X2 doesn't have as much room inside, and for better or worse, it looks less like an SUV.
2. 2025 BMW X2 M35i xDrive (2.0T All-Wheel Drive)
- Base Price: $51,850
- MPG Combined: 26
- Drive Type: All-wheel drive
- Engine: 2.0-liter inline-4
- Aspiration: Turbocharged
- Transmission: 7-speed automated manual
- Horsepower: 312
- Torque: 295 lb-ft
- 0-60: 5.2 sec
- Weight: 3,840 lbs
- Length: 179.3 in
- Towing Capacity: N/A
As with the X1, we're hesitant to endorse the X2's M35i variant, simply because it's got basically the same 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder engine as the standard X2 xDrive28i. Yes, there's a lot more power, but is the experience different enough to justify the extra spend? Not in our view.
