BMW iX2 (2024-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Very good to drive	Rear headroom severely cramped
Beautifully plush interior	Woeful rear visibility
Large, versatile boot	Complex infotainment is touchscreen-only

Quick Summary

The BMW iX2 is the all-electric version of the X2, a compact crossover SUV with a distinctive, coupe-like roofline that sets it apart from the more conventional X1. Available with either a 201bhp front-wheel-drive or a 309bhp all-wheel-drive powertrain, it comes exclusively in M Sport trim, offering impactful styling, a plush interior, and effective adaptive suspension. This new generation is significantly larger than its predecessor, aiming to appeal to buyers seeking cool image, high-tech features, and improved practicality.

Despite its swooping roofline, the iX2 offers a surprisingly large 525-litre boot, though rear headroom is limited for taller passengers. Driving dynamics range from brisk to rapid, with the adaptive suspension providing a good balance of comfort and control, although the steering can feel remote. The interior boasts a high-quality, tech-rich twin-screen infotainment system, though some controls are touchscreen-only. Running costs benefit from EV tax savings, but the purchase price is premium, and insurance can be high.

Best for: Buyers prioritising distinctive styling, a luxurious interior, strong performance, and advanced technology in an electric SUV. Also good for those seeking a practical boot for its class.

Not ideal for: Those needing ample rear headroom for adult passengers, buyers who prefer physical controls over touchscreen interfaces, or those on a tighter budget.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the iX2 if: You prioritise distinctive styling, a luxurious interior, strong performance, and advanced technology in an electric SUV, or seek a practical boot for its class.

Consider alternatives if: You need ample rear headroom for adult passengers, prefer physical controls over touchscreen interfaces, or are on a tighter budget.

Competitive Position: The BMW iX2 is a strong contender in the premium electric crossover market, distinguished by its unique coupe-like styling and luxurious, high-tech interior. It offers compelling performance and a balanced driving experience thanks to its standard adaptive suspension. While it sacrifices some rear headroom and comes at a premium price, its generous boot space for its segment and attractive Benefit-in-Kind tax benefits make it a serious rival to the Audi Q4 e-tron Sportback, Tesla Model Y, and Volvo C40, especially for those prioritising style and a refined cabin experience.
