a seriously stunning car, bmw as usual, made the mistake of showing the body years in advance and that gave opportunity for others to copy design elements but its still a rare design gem in the segment
..."full HD- full screen and full length" puts a smile on my fave, EVERY TIME...Thomas and Jay are my heroes...13:03 - squeak, HEY BMW...
yiha =)

That side profile is so pleasing to look at! Shame that not many do that now.
It's 2023 and I'm picking this car up in 2 days.
Your reviews are superb
Thank you Thomas, thank you Autogefühl team. Perfect start up of week for me after stresful working day.
Actually, I thought this car is ugly in the announcement but now, thanks to you Thomas , such a Good review and details as usual... i'm in love with it
The best X2 review I found, Thomas, well done! I recently drove a 2.0d on base suspension and M35i on its standard MSport suspension and agree that optional adaptive dampers is the only way to go (although they are not available on M35i here in the UK). I don’t agree that MSportX trim is “overdone” visually and have ordered one. Without the extra grey body mouldings of MSportX it looks too much like a 1 series!
Thanks for the feedback!
Just bought one of these, awesome to drive and couldn’t be happier
Very detailed review as always. Nice work
Schönes Review und toller Wagen, weiter so! :)
Another Wonderful job Thomas !! Give the man a raise :D
Great video as always Thomas. Good to see someone so passionately reviewing cars. I will share your channel with friends and tell them to spread it further. Keep the good work buddy!
awesome !!
Thomas you are the best!! Nice work!! great informative and also relaxing description for this bmw beauty!! Keep up the good work!!
👍👍
Get the base suspension and remove the runflat tires. Very comfortable car and still the best handling suv in the twisties.
hope, you enjoyed, Lisbon.
As Always great Review. Keep the good work.
Viel schoener geworden in sachen Compact SUV .. By the way : For me, I Love the Stiff and really Sporty Suspension with the direct Steering . Also for everyday .. Its totally my Setup .
Another fine and detailed review Thomas ! I like the interior and exterior design of the X2...but am disappointed that the microfiber and cloth sport seats are not available in the U.S. ! That interior looks great ...and....it's sustainable !
yeah it is! But as we heard you should get Sensatec leatherette in the US
Color combination looks awesome
Great review as always Thomas! Good job!
+Richie Chou thanks so much. Spread the word
Great Review Thomas, many thanks. Agree, X Line's extra grey plastic trim not very clean looking. At 5:40, amusing XXX story, hehe. As always, awesome driving parts, commentary and views through the windscreen. An X1 we tested on bumpy UK city roads was very firm, but you say this X2 is sportier still!
yeah indeed. Did u have the base suspension or also M ?
The test car was a 2016 X1 xDrive 18d xLine Auto with Electronic Damper Control (EDC), a £390 option. It didn't have the "M Sport Suspension" (£240 extra) that lowers 10mm and gives tighter damper settings - this is not available with EDC. We were driving on very bumpy local roads and in town, at slow speed and even with the EDC in 'comfort' the X1 was very firm. The other EDC setting was 'sport' which had a difference, but tightened things up more!
Autogefuhl. We have an X1 M Sport, it is fun to drive. It has base suspension. We had a Mini Cooper S before with hard suspension but needed more room. The X1 is more comfortable, but on bad roads it can get tiring. We may buy X2 next time. Thank you for video on X2.
idk why,those jokes are not really good but somehow i laugh real hard :D nice review
AAYEEEE
Overall nice BMW, but then aren't they all. We just got an X1 and we like it just fine. I wish we could get those fabric seats in the USA. What I don't like about this X2 is the color, I don't like that gold. Thomas, you are the best car reviewer on UA-cam, I appreciate your details.
*9 BMW logos total on the X2. You forgot about the one on the steering wheel.
I was referring to exterior :-)
If I'm interested in a model, you always have the review. Good job!!
you re welcome - feel free to recommend :)
I have this vehicle and love it.
Didn’t like it as first compare to Audi Q2 because the interior is uninspiring but Thomas make it looks good!
Great review as always
Portugal is already a second home for you Thomas ;)
I wish ! =)
This car is the sexy X1, it looks much better but in only 1 color, full black looks best, I wouldn’t choose this M sport X package with grey bumpers.
Hello Thomas! Really nice to meet you on that 7er to the Airport!! I will also post my first impressions and walkaround of that new X2!! Two journeys to Portugal and I just meet, well... lets say the two more important persons in Autogefuhl.. Thomas and AJ.. Nice review as always!! Let´s wait for the new 8er...
nice to meet you!
Thomas is too short hahahaha need my one hour review with chips. Great review and great car.
+Sawers hehe, you can check AJ's presentation as well ;)
Why would i buy an spensive crossover like this one if is not an offroader... here you get the same space and fun in a sedan
It is just popular and well designed.
Good review as always
Lucky for Thomas, I've always preferred cloth seats. They grip better, they're cooler, and I actually think dark fabrics looks great. It looks modern. I always feel jipped when I buy a car with leather. Because I know it's going to get cold in the winter and I'm going to slide all over the place.
exactly !
Regardless of the ethical side, it's hard to understand why anyone would choose leather instead of e.g. these really good looking seats. Had leather seats once and definitely never again - sticky and sweaty during summer, freezing and slippery during winter.
yeah. That's how it started for me too when I bought cars with leather seats once!
Leather's so 1998... great review, as always! thanks......
I drive an X1 with the fake suede interior, I much prefer it to leather, but I do not think man made fibre interiors are any more sustainable than leather, we need to put more emphasis on recycling and plant based fibres.
On another note the X1 is a nice car, not sure about the X2, I just needed an economical boxy hatch, though I now realise I made a mistake and should have got a 2 series Active tourer which is more comfortable and a sportier drive that he X1, though that would be less profit for BMW ;)
It looks really nice.
Let’s be honest all the Audi fans and Mercedes fans can say how much they hate this new car, but it you took off the grill and badges, not changing the design or the interior and called it an Audi or Mercedes they would love it
BMW ///M exactly David !!!
looks like KIA to me
You see every time people say bmws look the same , the second BMW changes a little bit of the design people say it looks like this or that , like damn its just hate ...
Based on my experience reading youtube comments, the fanatic audi fanboy r the worst. Not just hate, they r bullies.
just say to audi fanboys... enjoy your overpriced VW.. and to merc boys.. enjoy your car with a renault engine with fake exhausts and fake air intakes
Always love your presentations !!! Good job !!
thanks keep joining us! :)
Great video as always!!!
Thomas - As always another great review. Also enjoyed AJ's presentations from the 2018 Detroit Auto Show and Brian's review of the new Mercedes A Class. Joe
thanks joseph!
Superb review of the X2 Thomas. I really like the colour and the M Sport package
Thx ron!
gr8 review, thanks, thomas!!
Cheers please share =)
Thomas and "everybody who is thinking about getting the Adaptive Cruise Control", you guys should be aware that the used system is camera based, like in the 2 series Active- and Grandtourer and x1. Many people are not happy with that system because it turns itself off in heavy rain, snow etc., or when the low sun hits the camera from the front. I had that situation by myself and it is really dangerous cause it turn off the ACC completly and you have to wait a good amount of time (10-20mins) until its available again...
In the other BMW models the Adaptive Cruise Control is a radar based one, which is working brilliant and it does not care about any wheater conditions.
I dont know why they have choosen the cheaper camera based one you would also get in a Fiat. Maybe they want to save money or they are insecure where to hide the sensor... i dont know...could also be possible that it has to do something about the cooperation with Mini, cause Mini's also are using the camera based ACC...
Anyways the system build in thi x2 is working even in Stop&Go traffic, but it has its problems in bad wheater conditions, so for me it is not as good as the radar one in a 3,4,5 series... , BUT it is ecually expensive! Just be aware of that guys :)
+Alessandro DM - interesting. You say the ACC turns off in bad weather. Describing the ACC on the X1, the BMW UK online website states "if weather conditions are impacting the camera too negatively, the cruise can still be used without regulating the distance to the car ahead". Is this correct? Does it warn the driver. Having two modes could be risky for an unsuspecting driver!
The ACC gives the driver a choice, if you are holding the button where you "increase the distance" for a few seconds it deacitvates the ACC and you can use normal cruise control. If you hold the button again it switches back to ACC mode.
Yes you are right, normal cruise is still available even in bad wheater. But honestly for me this system would be helpful if it helps me in heavy rain or fog or snow to keep safe distance to the car in front of me.
Also think about the camera has to work also at night. I experienced it quite often that I am passing somebody on the left lane and the car thinks the other car is driving in front of me even though it is in another lane and it breaks. Camera systems are really helpful at all, for me they are just dangerous.
There will be the classic BMW warning sound and It will say something like "ACC not available" as a notification.
Then it turns itself off and switches to normal cruise control which can get dangerous if you arent expecting that...
As i said i really dont know why they decided to use this cheaper version. Currently even the one series features a fully radar based ACC unit and its a much cheaper car than the x1, x2 and 2 series...
Alessandro DM - thanks for reply, and information. Thomas, as an expert driver, any thoughts? My initial thoughts (as a non expert) is that with two modes, a driver could get confused (in busy traffic?) and assume the cruise was in ACC mode when it was not, and drive into the back of a vehicle! (You have previously commented that an ACC that cuts out before the car stops is not very good!). Cheers.
very good review thanks.... but i wish x2 would not be smaller and lower than x1 because x2 design is more attractive than x1 and also new x3 ...
Great review and great car, but it looks better in other colours IMHO.
Thks Thom.
Hi Thomas !!! This car realy has 10 logos, considering the steering wheel and key. By the way, 16:10 Oooooh the sand on the road.... VERY FUNNY !!! Nice review !!
+enrique jardon hehe, good 2 hear that you enjoyed the review. Stick to us :)
That place always has sand on the road, and some days you can't even drive there or you will get stuck! And that was pretty funny!
Thomas. You are always here in Guincho :)
What country is this place? it is very beautiful.
Luiz Miguel Ortiz Portugal
Legal, fiquei com vontade de visitar
so beautiful =)
Cascais/Guincho! Sitio perfeito para reviews! Abraço a todos os Tugas que seguem este cana!
Thomas can you let us know what is your personal car, that you use in your daily life? Keep up the great work, love watching your reviews and AJ's too.
great you are with us!
I tend not to mention personal cars =)
Great review, just wanted to mention that Sensatec is definitely an option in the US on all models (standard and M sport).
great, thanks for the info !
Good review Thomas
Take base model for spinn
Great review Thomas: thank you. I think you should have driven through that sand, which was on the road, in order to demonstrate the 4 wheel drive, instead of driving around it to show off the agility. This demonstration drive certainly highlighted the fact that you own a bicycle - you didn''t swear at any of the cyclists you had to overtake.
hehe I would never, always paying attention to them :)
About the 4WD, did you follow the driving part to the end? I did a stand-still-acceleration on gravel too. Driving over the sand at constant speed would have shown nothing :)
Yes, I was just being whimsical about the 4 wd and the sand.
I love driving in the sand :)
Back in my day we called these hatchbacks
Hey Thomas in your opinion what is a better buy BMW X2 sDrive 18d aut Led front and back lights solid equipment or Jeep Compass 2.0 140hp diesel Limited 4X4 Selec terrain, 8.4inch infotainment xenon headlights front led back for tho similar amount of money?
What would you buy?
Frankly: the X1 :)
Autogefühl Hahaha thank You. I appreciate your opinion
Still didn't know why this 1 isn't a coupe cuz thats what even no represents in bmw???
I like the front and the side profile. Personally, i think it is better than X1. The back is unnecessarily busy, too many (small) lines here and there which break the back into a lot of patch of curved areas.
Car looks really great. good job BMW
Driving in my backyard 😆 great road. Nice review as always
so beautiful there :)
Ohhh the winter in Portugal :)
The fabric on the door looks like a streched honeycomb texture.
yeah thats nicely done
Other than the badge does it really offer anything more to say the Mazda CX-5 that will cost you many thousands less?
Good car, great review, but I hope you are now in Tenerife with new Leaf =)
I clicked on the video just so you would get the view but I have to watch it all later
as the 25 i is not available yet I would never choose the X2. And as the X1 is already a bit stiff with runflat tyres or bigger rims the M sport variant would not be my choice also. For me the X2 is interesting for young people who want a stylish design and do not care to spend a bit more money. The X1 is more the family car with one or two kids.
This was expensive, but 2015 model prices second hand have plummeted from what I’ve seen! A real bargain.
There are no 2015 bmw x2
Autogefühl Yeap, I was having a daft moment! I was looking again and saw it was only launched this year? Not quite the bargain I thought. Hmm, mind you no way would I subscribe just to use Apple CarPlay? Very strange idea.
Nice review Thomas! You mentioned that the days were BMW used to offer unworthy interiors are gone. Could you please be more specific on that remark?
If you take a look at past years 1-Series or 3-Series interiors e.g. they are/were far behind Mercedes and especially Audi in the build quality. Now they are trying to close the gap
Peugeot 3008, Volvo XC40, Audi Q3, Mercedes GLA, Jaguar E-Pace, Range Rover Velar, or BMW X1/X2.
Which one and why?
Depending on your budget...
But I would say XC40. Q3, X1 are too common, and GLA is the ugliest thing I've ever seen
Velar is not in this segment.It is big and have to comopare with BMW X3
Yeah, evoque sorry
3008, Q3, GLA and Evoque all fail emissions regulations, not even Eu 6c, that's a no-go.
How about a DS 7 Crossback, it's beautiful and very comfortable instead of silly pseudo-sporty.
DS7 is not in this category. I think it competes with BMW X3...
So you suggest the BMW X2 for emissions?
Black and black are the only acceptable BMW exterior/interior colors.
Great review. I'm considering this (new) vs base macan (slightly used). What would u do?
Thanks! Buy an X1 :)
Hi thomas im just wondering does bmw 330i, X1 and X2 does come with manual transmission? Please reply were thinking about buying bmw
It depends on the engine you pick
Hi . It would be great to see a full autogefuhl review with Thomas of the new a7
Two words: stay tuned ;-)
Which one would you choose? Volvo XC40 or BMW X2? I am suffering a little bit of analysis-paralysis en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_paralysis
checked our XC40 review? ua-cam.com/video/Ac8rL-qI-Yw/v-deo.html
Autogefühl Several times! I don't seek a sporty drive... I just want the best value for money
I hate the yellow gaps at the doors.Premium car shouldn't have these gaps. BMW F30 also has these gaps.But the exterior design is very good.I like the wheels,the real exhaust pipes(Benz's pipe is fake),the two tone colour. BMW is good in the wheel.The LED light and driving assistance systems should be standard equipment for premium car (Mazda,Ford,Honda ....etc. set these systems as standard).
Well done once again Thomas, greetings from Cascais! The most beautiful city on earth 😁 fun fact: he droved to Cabo da Roca which is the western point of Europe 😉
To when a review of the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk?
indeed it is, so great there :)
not scheduled yet, I guess the overall model is already at the final stages of its lifecycle?
yes, thats true... they already have the 2018 model out... to bad... i really love that car, is the true value for money! thanks anyway!
Logo on wheels! Wow! You didnt see this before?
Obviously you didnt get the point. It's about the additional logos on the side and overall then counting the logo numbers
nice work ! When is the next annual meeting??
+nvkulk we aren't sure if we can arrange a meet up this year. If so we will announce that asap
Wow. So handsome car.. and also handsome man! True great quality review! It is so wonderful to see the interior not made from animal skin!! I will never support leather cruelty. Mach weiter so Bekannter. Love from Dresden
+lizab thanks for the support!!
Seeing how low to the ground the seating position is I can imagine this would feel more like driving a hatchback then an actual SUV..
But that it's OK, I wouldn't mind driving one! It's good looking too!
Nice, nice review. Thomas, interesting to see that driving this car you have much more emotions comparing with Mercedes E class coupe )
Does it really drive more interesting than E-class, or these emotions are the result of different aspects of this car, not only driving?
tough question ;)
:))
So if I got you right this car is rather a van than a SUV?
Thomas, can you review the base model with the 18i Please?
The old x1 was on a better platform and safer because it was 170kg heavier 1490 vs 1320kg (heavier vehicles are safer in case of an impact according to IIHS), but this one is better equipped and has better trim.
but the 1st gen x1 looked more like a wagon then a suv, plus theirs fuel efficiency, the old one kinda had that problem, but the current one is better and also lighter, so less fuel consumption, better engines. plus with less weight, more fuel efficient and less chances for the engine to wear its self out.
I dont see anything wrong with the design of the car, and crossovers arent ment to be for everyone but if you are small like me and like everyone in your family then its not a bad choice at all and the price is acceptable if you compare it with other BMW's.
Nicely Teutonic
Great reviews. Hideous car.
8 badges only? Come on BMW, you can do better!)))
Omg I want this man!!!!!!!!! That accent meow!
Why the x1 is bigger than the x2, isn't supposed to be other way round.
think about X3 vs X4 and X5 vs X6. The one number above there is always the cut down coupé version
nein der X 1 hat den größeren Kofferraum und mehr Kopffreiheit.
the interior is out of date......it is really a shame....mercedes has a much more luxurious cockpit.......it is not understandable why BMW still sticks to that out-of-date interior....... for that price of a car, the customer should get a proper interior....disrespectful
Audi has been killing it with interiors as well. Volvo, too. Even DS and Lexus are much nicer.
What the fuck did you expect a fully loaded 7 series seats with executive Rear seats with a cooler , its a x2 the 2nd entry level SUV not a x6
GLA interior is garbage too
The Interieur of BMW is more European Style. Mercedes follows more the Asian and Middle East taste.
I had a look at one today. Really nice looking vehicle in the flesh. Interior is usual boring plain small BMW though.
It was all body coloured 218d
Are the front seats extremely narrow like the BMW X1?
Compare it in the videos, X1 review is linked in the video description!
Lower it my 100mm, remove the cladding and you have the future1 series
I would buy a M240i x2 version I heard it could happen I would so go for one
Thomas, do you know by chance why BMW changed from rwd to fwd vehicles like this one, it is because of fuel consumption or hy?
cost savings, more room in the interior, platform sharing with mini
Thanks, it's a shame I love how rwd cars handle.
danny Better handling in city, snow, rain, etc. ... RWD is great on a dry country road, but how much time do we actually spent doing that.
Another one bmw logo on the case for manuals ;-)
I like bmw x2 more than bmw x3
I feel guilty for that, but no regret.
can someone plz tell me the place this video was filmed it looks so nice
near Cascais
The X1 always made the driver look like they were in a gold fish bowl, because there was loads of space above their head. All BMW has done is lower the roof as they easily had the head space to do so, and change a few things on the front and rear to make it look different; then charge a lot more than an X1! It should handle well compared to other SUVs as you are hardly sitting in a very commanding driving position. If Thomas sat in this, and a BMW 1 Series on standard suspension, how much higher is he actually sitting, measured from the ground with a metre stick? 3 to 6 cm??
ua-cam.com/video/nyt-kuSfJAY/v-deo.html
Really cool place for driving! Guincho! ;)
Thomas, you always say “HD, full screen and 4x.” What’s 4x?
FULL LENGTH =)
Does it drive more like an X1 or Countryman, given its sporty pretensions?
Rides like a 3 series and the x1 too , remember it's just the chassis that's a mini , engine is BMW the suspension and weight is all custom from BMW steering as well its based on a mini not literally a mini
You misunderstand: the Countryman and X1 should drive exactly alike, yet they don't. I was wondering which car the X2 is more like.
watched the driving part?
Autogefühl Of course I did, but you never mentioned the Countryman at all.
