A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE BMW 2 SERIES MODELS.

THE FIRST GENERATION.

BMW 2 Series Coupé (F22).

The successor to the BMW 1 Series Coupé set its own visual accents in 2013 and emphasized the vehicle's sporty character even more clearly with its flared rear wheel arches, athletic rear end and striking silhouette with sloping roofline. Following the model update in 2017, new front and rear lights ensured an even more commanding appearance. The front headlights featured LED technology as standard.

Agile engines delivered dynamic propulsion across the range, whether with a three-cylinder gasoline engine with a displacement of 1.5 litres or the M models, whose CS variant produced a brawny 450 hp (331 kW). The chassis quickly showed that these compact vehicles also carried the BMW DNA, with precise, clearly defined steering that ensured control.

Inside, the driver was supported by a wide range of assistance systems, such as optional active cruise control, which reacts to the speed of the traffic in front of the vehicle. In addition, infotainment systems able to stream music from the leading online libraries promised pure entertainment while on the road.

Production period: 2013 – 2021

Engines: 1.5 – 3.0 litres (100 – 331 kW, 136 – 450 hp), 3 & 6-cylinder

BMW 2 Series Gran Coupé (F44).

In 2020, the BMW 2 Series welcomed a new addition with no direct predecessor: the BMW 2 Series Gran Coupé. Exceptional through and through, it simply exudes confidence down to the last detail – from the BMW kidney grille with mesh design and an elaborate, three-dimensional structure, to the frameless doors and the sideline, which is raised towards the rear and creates a striking contrast with the sloping roof. Performance-oriented aesthetics meet individuality and extravagance!
This concept continues inside the BMW 2 Series Gran Coupé, where the optional fully digital BMW Live Cockpit Professional with two optional 10.25" screens and heads-up display shows the driver all relevant information in every situation.

In addition to the 3 and 4-cylinder turbocharged engines, some of which feature adjustable charge vanes, optional 7 or 8-speed Steptronic transmissions also ensure peerless driving performance.

Engines: 1.5 - 2.0 litres (100 – 225 kW, 136 – 306 hp), 3 & 4-cylinder

BMW 2 Series Active Tourer (F45).

Since 2014, the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer has combined modern styling with urban charm as the perfect companion for an active lifestyle. As versatile as it is efficient, this car effortlessly masters every challenge the urban environment holds in store. However, it also shines on longer journeys to the great outdoors.

Modern 3 and 4-cylinder engines drive the front wheels as standard – BMW's intelligent xDrive all-wheel-drive system is also available as an option. The 225xe plug-in hybrid model was introduced in 2016, combining a 1.5 litre combustion engine with an electric motor. 


In 2018, the face-lifted model received an even more striking front and rear thanks to the redesigned lights, as well as updated engines with even lower emissions.

Production period: 2014 – 2021

Engines: 1.5 – 2.0 litres (100 – 170 kW, 136 – 231 hp), 3 & 4-cylinder

Length/width/height: 4,342 – 4,354 mm / 1,800 mm / 1,555 mm

BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer (F46).

The perfect combination of dynamics and flexibility: With the standard third row of seats, the BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer can accommodate up to seven people. However, thanks to the 3 and 4-cylinder TwinPower turbo engines and the characteristic front with impressive double kidney grille, it remains every bit as athletic as its smaller stable mates. Additional practicality is ensured by the large doors, long wheelbase and short overhangs. Optimum road holding is a given thanks to the single-joint strut-type axles at the front and the use of lightweight, high-strength materials in the chassis, which endows the BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer with agile and precise steering. Optionally available: BMW xDrive all-wheel drive and dual-clutch Steptronic sports transmission for even faster, smoother gear changes.

In 2018, the legendary BMW kidney grille grew even bigger as the result of the model update – and is now flanked by all-new LED headlights. The new front apron also lends the entire vehicle an even more charismatic appearance.

Production period: 2015 – 2022

Engines: 1.5 – 2.0 litres (100 – 141 kW, 136 – 192 hp), 3 & 4-cylinder

Length/width/height: 4,556 – 4,568 mm / 1,800 mm / 1,641 mm

THE SECOND GENERATION.

BMW 2 SERIES COUPÉ (G42).

The BMW 2 Series Coupé, released in 2021, continues the tradition of sportive, compact but powerful vehicles: an emotional driving experience thanks to the rear drive unit and agile handling. The highly efficient, high-performance engines enable powerful acceleration in all driving conditions. And the optional adjustable sport steering ensures immediate response, minimal steering effort and precision when driving. With a 31 mm wider track compared to its predecessor, the vehicle boasts a superior visual appearance. Likewise, the new single-frame double kidney in which, instead of bars, kidney flaps open or close depending on the cooling demand required. The bi-LED single headlights are reminiscent of coupé legends such as the BMW 2002, and under the lights, triangular air intakes create a sporty appearance. Triangles are often repeated in the BMW 2 Series’ Coupé design – as embossing in the inner door panels for example.


With the BMW Digital Key your smartphone will be able to open and lock the vehicle or even start up the engine. And if you are ever unsure whether you have locked your car – you can do so at any time while on the road via the MyBMW app.
