I'm not the target market. I drove an X1 and found it to be pleasant and good space. Drove the X3 and that feels 'big'. I think the X2 will suit a mid 20's crowd wanting to get into a BMW. Out door life style is very 'now' and this is sportier than the X1. It will sell. The X1 has done well.
I went for a sports wagon to get rear oriented drive (x-drive) and the better gear box!

Woohoo! An MB GLA mated with a Toyota Tacoma!
Actually I only really dislike the direction they're going with the kidney grilles. Looks too catfish like, JUST like on the Tacoma. And then there's pretty much a flattening out and elimination of the hofmeister kink [img]https://www.toyota.com/imgix/respons...s=strip&bg=fff[/img] I do like the retro BMW badging on the C-pillar though |

I do not like the two-toned side skirt panels, it makes it look like a cheap Subaru.
The front sides and rear looks nice, I like the side mirrors. The C pillar badging looks super cool, I'd like BMW to design element throughout there lineup. |

It actually reminded me of a Citroen Cactus blended with F48.
Not the spicy X2 concept we were shown. Actually i think the gap between the concept and the actual car is far to big, and i start to question why this model is made in the first place, what sets it apart from the F48? Is it the upside down kindey, the badge on the C pilar? I though the X2 was suposed to be a more spicy and youthful X1, which imo, is kinda cheap and dull, it's UKL so, not much to be expected anyway! |

I'm gonna reserve judgement on this one until we actually see a painted production car with full M Sport bodykit (anyone know when the reveal is due??) because that COULD look quite nice... but we'll see won't we!! |

A sporty 1/2er hatch basically. Jacked up and rebranded a crossover. Just like what MB has done with the GLA. |

I won't even bother doing a render... The time for mini-BMW's has truly arrived... Sad...

It's a squashed down X1. I might be interested in this in an M version. Primarily I like the size and versatility, if I can get the power and handling also I would be sold.

on one hand i love it, it feels like itd be a better competitior to the GLA than the X1 is.
on the other hand, without getting rid of the X1 i don't see how this will sell - especially if its a decent amount expensive, resulting in more eyesore also lastly, putting badges on the c pillar? can we please have bangle back? even hooydonk would do at this point |

I don't understand the complaining here. The shape and design details are pretty darn close to those of the concept. I think it will be a nice looking vehicle.
I am, however, just a bit confused on the purpose of this X2. Both this and the X1 are 4-door entry-level luxury crossovers aimed at the young family type of crowd. What does the X2 accomplish in the market that the X1 doesn't already? |

Personally, I would only buy an X5, and even the new X5 is not as attractive as its two predecessors. Lets just accept that BMW has sold out and become a company making all things for all people. the rarity and specialness is gone...... |
