A model that has been thoroughly updated and offers unique ergonomics, functionality and a large package of comfort, safety and connectivity technologies. All this adds up to the profile of the new BMW 2 Series Active, which also boasts the most recognised driving pleasure BMW has to offer in its models.
Architecturally, it is designed to support both internal combustion engines and electrified powertrains. Its exterior design features elements of both advanced aesthetics and the profile of a modern crossover. Characteristic features include the now larger BMW grille, large air intakes and full-LED headlights. Depending on the version, 16" or 17" alloy wheels are fitted as standard. Aluminium wheels up to 19" are available as an option.
The completely revised interior combines versatility with modern design. The cabin geometry and numerous details are inspired by the philosophy of the BMW iX technology flagship. This creates an environment of advanced luxury, dominated by the slim instrument panel, the BMW Curved Display and the 'floating' armrest with integrated control panel, while the reduction in the number of physical controls and switches throughout the cabin is evident. The new generation of the iDrive control/operation system, for the first time in a BMW compact model, is based on BMW Operating System 8.
In addition, the new 2 Series Active Tourer opens up new horizons in the areas of drive systems, driver support, control/operation and connectivity innovations. The second generation offers passengers in all five seats significantly more comfort on long-distance journeys than its predecessor, while the numerous storage spaces and multi-adjustable rear seats also contribute to the functional comfort of the car in everyday use and on longer journeys. The wide range of standard equipment is by far better than the previous model and stands out from the competition, making the new BMW 2 Series Active Tourer a particularly attractive proposition for drivers and families with an active and active lifestyle.
In the showrooms of the Pilakuta Group, the new BMW 2 Series Active Tourer is presented in four versions with two petrol engines and one diesel engine. Starting with the 218i version with the 1.5-litre engine producing 136bhp while the same set is under the bonnet of the 220i version but with the horsepower rising to 170bhp. The 223i version has a two-litre engine producing 218 horsepower. The range also includes a two-litre diesel engine producing 150 bhp and 360 Nm of torque. All versions have front-wheel drive. The plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version will soon be added to the range from July 2022.
