<strong>Munich</strong>. The BMW Group is consistently driving its
  electrification strategy forward and presents new plug-in hybrid
  models for an especially popular and dynamically growing vehicle
  category. In the new BMW X1 xDrive25e and the new BMW X2 xDrive25e,
  the intelligently controlled interaction between a fuel combustion
  engine and an electric motor as well as locally emissions-free travel
  can be experienced in the Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) and Sports
  Activity Coupe (SAC) premium segment starting in 2020. A highly
  efficient electric drive and a latest-generation lithium-ion battery
  enable an electrically powered range of up to 57 kilometres* in the
  two new plug-in hybrid models. With an average fuel consumption of 2.1
  to 1.9 litres per 100 kilometres* and CO2 emissions between 48 and
  43 grams per kilometre* for the BMW X1 xDrive25e and 2.1 to 1.9 litres
  per 100 kilometres* and between 47 and 43 grams per kilometre* for the
  BMW X2 xDrive25e, both models set a benchmark within their competitive
  fields. Combined power consumption of the BMW X1 xDrive25e is 14.3 to
  13.8 kWh per 100 kilometres*, the corresponding values of the
  BMW X2 xDrive25e are 14.2 to 13.7 kWh per 100 kilometres*. The hybrid
  specific all-wheel drive with its fast and precise distribution of
  power between the front and rear wheels delivers a high level of
  driving pleasure and thrilling agility.</p>
<p>The two plug-in models are an extension to the wide range of BMW
  models in the premium compact segment of SAV and SAC vehicles. In
  addition to numerous variants featuring extremely efficient petrol and
  diesel engines, models with electrified drive will be on offer for the
  first time. Thus, the portfolio will include in addition to economical
  entry models with a 3-cylinder combustion engine also the new plug-in
  hybrid models and the BMW X2 M35i (combined fuel consumption:
  7.1 – 6.8 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions: 163 – 154 g/km*), the
  extremely athletic top model with a maximum output of 225 kW/306 hp.
  With the extension of its range in the premium compact segment the BMW
  Group’s model offensive is gaining further momentum in the area of
  plug-in hybrid models. The current selection comprises the
  MINI Cooper SE Countryman, the BMW 225xe Active Tourer, BMW 3 Series
  and BMW 5 Series models and plug-in hybrid luxury sedans of the BMW 7
  Series. In future, four BMW X models with plug-in hybrid drive will
  also be available. As a pioneer in electric mobility BMW intends to
  have more than one million vehicles with electrified drive on the road
  by the end of 2021. By 2021, 25 percent of the vehicles sold by the
  BMW Group in Europe will feature an electric drive. By 2025 this
  figure is scheduled to reach 33 percent and 50 percent by 2030. The
  BMW Group plans to extend their portfolio by additional 25 electrified
  vehicles by 2023.</p>

<p>The plug-in hybrid system of the new BMW X1 xDrive 25e and the new
  BMW X2 xDrive25e consists of a 1.5 litre 3-cylinder petrol engine with
  BMW TwinPower Turbo Technology and an electric drive specially
  developed for this model. It is taken from the eDrive technology
  modular system of the BMW Group. The petrol engine mobilises a peak
  output of 92 kW/125 hp and a maximum torque of 220 Newton metres. It
  transfers its power to a 6-speed Steptronic transmission and drives
  the front wheels. The electric motor generates an output of 70 kW/95
  hp and delivers 165 Nm of torque to the rear wheels via a single-speed
  transmission. This makes for a hybrid specific all-wheel drive, which
  gives both models a unique level of agility in their competitive
  fields delivering hallmark SAV and SAC driving pleasure. The highly
  responsive power delivery of the electric motor, which delivers its
  full torque spontaneously from standstill, enables the driver to react
  extremely quickly to changing driving conditions. In addition, the
  position of the electric motor above the rear axle contributes to the
  harmoniously balanced axle load distribution of the new BMW X1
  xDrive25e and the new BMW X2 xDrive25e. In conjunction with the
  intelligently controlled interaction between the two power units, it
  provides maximum driving stability, ride comfort and dynamic response.</p>
<p>Together the combustion engine and electric motor produce a system
  output of 162 kW/220 hp. The maximum system torque of both drive units
  is 385 Nm. The new BMW X1 xDrive25e accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in
  6.9 seconds. The new BMW X2 xDrive25e does the 0 to 100 km/h sprint in
  6.8 seconds. In addition, the electric boost provided by the drive
  system ensures additional safety reserves and intense sporty flair
  when overtaking on country roads, for example. The top speed of the
  new BMW X1 xDrive25e is 193 km/h. Maximum speed of the new
  BMW X2 xDrive25e is 195 km/h.</p>
<p>With the very latest high-voltage battery cell technology, the new
  BMW X1 xDrive25e and the new BMW X2 xDrive25e possess generous
  reserves of electrical energy enabling the driver to conduct the main
  share of everyday travel locally emissions-free with the electric
  motor alone. The latest-generation lithium-ion battery has a gross
  energy content of 10 kWh. This allows for an electrically powered
  range of between 54 and 57 kilometres* in the BMW X1 xDrive25e
  (between 55 and 57 kilometres* in the new BMW X2 xDrive25e). The
  high-voltage battery can be charged at conventional household sockets
  using the standard-equipment charging cable. An empty battery can be
  fully charged in around five hours in this way. It only takes 3.8
  hours for the battery to reach 80 percent of its total capacity. Using
  a BMW i Wallbox, the relevant charging operation from 0 to 100 percent
  takes less than 3.2 hours. 80 percent of total capacity is already
  reached after 2.4 hours. The charging socket is located under a
  separate flap on the front left side wall of the car.</p>
<p>The driver can use the eDrive button on the centre console to
  influence the drive system’s operating mode. In the AUTO eDRIVE
  standard setting, the intelligent drive system ensures optimum
  interaction between the two power units in all driving situations.
  Navigation data is also used to manage the plug-in hybrid system to
  increase both efficiency as well as driving pleasure. When navigation
  guidance is activated, the anticipatory energy management can also
  take into account the route profile for controlling the drive system.
  The MAX eDrive mode can be activated for maximum use of the electric
  drive. In this mode, the new BMW X1 xDrive25e and the new
  BMW X2 xDrive25e reach a top speed of 135 km/h. In addition there is
  also the SAVE BATTERY mode. It enables the driver to maintain the
  charging state of the high-voltage battery while driving or to
  increase it by means of recuperation. In this way battery capacity can
  be saved for later use when driving in purely electric mode in the
  city for example. The driving experience switch can be used
  independent of the drive mode. In the new BMW X1 xDrive25e and the new
  BMW X2 xDrive25e, the driver can use this to activate the COMFORT,
  SPORT and ECO PRO modes in order to influence the drive and suspension
  functions as well as to operate the electrically powered comfort systems.</p>
<p>Due to a long electric range and low CO2 emissions, the new
  BMW X1 xDrive25e and the new BMW X2 xDrive25e (depending on equipment)
  meet the criteria which have been stipulated for the classification as
  an electric vehicle in Germany and the associated preferential
  treatment in public road traffic. In addition, it also qualifies for
  reduced company car taxation in Germany. Only half the gross list
  price is used as a basis when calculating the monetary benefit from
  private use of the company car.</p>
<p>The new BMW X1 xDrive25e and the new BMW X2 xDrive25e feature
  acoustic pedestrian protection as standard. When driving electrically
  at speeds of up to 30 km/h, an unmistakable sound designed
  specifically for electrified BMW models is generated to alert other
  road users to the approaching car without impairing the acoustic
  comfort of the vehicle occupants. In addition, the standard equipment
  of the two compact BMW X models with plug-in hybrid drive also
  includes 17-inch light alloy wheels, 2-zone automatic air conditioning
  as well as auxiliary air conditioning. The interior can be
  pre-conditioned remotely via BMW Connected using a smartphone. The new
  BMW X1 xDrive25e is available as Advantage, Sport Line, xLine and M
  Sport models. For the new BMW X2 xDrive25e customers can choose from
  the following models: Advantage, Advantage Plus, M Sport and
  M Sport X. In addition to the respective equipment packages, virtually
  all options of the conventionally powered BMW X1 or BMW X2 are
  available for the plug-in hybrid models.</p>
<p>The positioning of the high-voltage battery underneath the rear seats
  not only leads to a very low centre of gravity, which optimises the
  agility of the BMW X1 xDrive25 and the new BMW X2 xDrive25e, but also
  to a slightly reduced transport capacity compared to the
  conventionally powered compact model variants. The luggage compartment
  volume is fully available in primary use. In the new BMW X1 xDrive25e
  luggage compartment capacity is 450 litres. With a standard split of
  40: 20: 40, the folding backrests enable this to be increased to 1,470
  litres. A trailer tow hitch with detachable ballhead is optionally
  available for the new BMW X1 xDrive25e. The maximum trailer load is
  750 kilograms.</p><div class="co2emission"><div class="co2emission-headline">CO2 EMISSIONS & CONSUMPTION.</div><div class="co2emission-text"><p>BMW X1 xDrive25e: combined fuel consumption: 2,1 - 1,9 l/100 km;

  generation TwinPower Turbo petrol engines, the first high-performance
  four-cylinder engine since the iconic BMW E30 M3 power unit.</p>

  sports steering that creates an agile and precise driving experience.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The intelligent all-wheel-drive xDrive system has been coupled with
  the M Sport differential, a mechanical limited-slip differential
  fitted to the front axle to maximise front end grip and minimise
  torque steer.</p>
<p> </p>

  superior stopping power and are framed by the Double-spoke styled
  20-inch light alloy wheels.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>

<p>BMW X2 M35i’s distinctive exterior design contains key design
  elements that highlight its sporting stance.</p>

  with specific body trim components finished in the signature M
  Performance hue – Cerium Grey.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A low slung roof, powerful shoulder line, ‘tucked’ glass house and
  integrated rear spoiler structure the rear view of the car.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Two specifically designed exhaust pipes finished in Cerium Grey, each
  measuring a considerable 100mm in diameter, commands on-road presence
  and exudes power.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>
  <strong>Performance without compromise on comfort.</strong></p>
<p>Entering the cabin, the prominent ‘M35i’ adorned door sill finishers
  further set the sporty theme.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>New M Sport seats, featuring integrated headrests and electric seat
  adjustment, come in a variety of upholsteries and offer superior
  lateral support for both driver and passenger.</p>

  <strong>Munich.</strong> Sportiness coupled with a polarising
  appearance – based on this formula, the new BMW X2 has inspired above
  all a young and modern target group following its premiere in March
  2018. With its extroverted design, the BMW X2 interprets the character
  of a premium SAC (Sports Activity Coupes) in an entirely new way
  within the compact segment.  </p>
<p>
  <strong>The top-of-the-range version of the BMW X2 is the M
    Performance automobile. </strong></p>
<p>BMW is now presenting the new top model of the X2 series. The wide
  BMW double kidney grille of new BMW X2 M35i (combined fuel consumption
  8.4-8.1 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions: 191-185 g/km)*, features a
  surround in Cerium Grey for visual differentiation at first glance.
  Likewise, the surrounds of the air cooling inlets and the exterior
  mirror caps are finished in Cerium Grey. The rear of the X2 M35i is
  characterised by the standard M rear spoiler and two specially
  designed exhaust tailpipes, which also come in Cerium Grey.</p>
<p>
  <a name="_Hlk521503616"></a><strong>BMW’s most powerful 2-litre
    TwinPower Turbo engine. </strong></p>
<p>The new BMW X2 M35i featuring a 225 kW (306 hp) 4-cylinder
  turbocharged petrol engine definitely sets new benchmarks above the
  previous versions. As the letter M in the type designation clearly
  signalises, the new X2 M35i possesses the impressive dynamic handling
  qualities of an M Performance automobile. Behind this is yet again the
  BMW M GmbH, whose racing know-how flows into the development of all
  components. The 2-litre TwinPower Turbo engine concealed under an M
  Performance cover is the very first M Performance four-cylinder engine
  and at the same time BMW’s most powerful version. It delivers a
  fascinating maximum power output of 225 kW (306 hp). Maximum torque is
  an extremely powerful 450 Newton metres. To ensure that this sheer
  power is securely transferred to the tarmac, the X2 M35i comes as
  standard with intelligent four-wheel drive technology xDrive in
  conjunction with the 8-speed Steptronic transmission including Launch
  Control. The automatic transmission features specific M Performance
  tuning. Equipped in this way, the BMW X2 M35i is able to accelerate
  from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.9 seconds*. The necessary thermal
  stability of the engine is now ensured by a redesigned cooling system.</p>
<p>
  <strong>Outstanding driving dynamics thanks to M-specific tuning</strong>.</p>
<p>Being a typical M Performance automobile, the BMW X2 M35i features,
  in addition to a powerful engine, also a M Sport suspension system
  that has been specifically tuned and adapted to match the car’s sporty
  character. A adaptive suspension offering two different manually
  adjustable modes and combining maximised sportiness and driving
  comfort is also optionally available.  A particularly special
  technical highlight – and also a premiere for an M Performance
  automobile – is the M Sport Differential installed in the front axle
  gear. During highly dynamic driving manoeuvres, this locking
  differential most effectively reduces possible traction losses on the
  front wheels. In addition, the braking system has been upgraded for
  use on the X2 M35i. The M Sport braking system with fixed callipers in
  Dark Blue metallic and 18-inch steel discs at the front (17-inch at
  the rear) guarantees consistently short braking distances even under
  the highest loads. With that, however, the M know-how is still far
  from being exhausted. Steering and suspension have also both been
  adapted to match the performance of the drive system. For instance,
  thanks to a special setup, the M sports steering conveys to the driver
  an impressively direct and precise steering feel. Furthermore, the X2
  M35i comes as standard with the M Sport suspension with a stiffer
  spring and damper setting as well as vehicle lowering. The rear axle
  construction has been redesigned. A suspension with an adaptive spring
  and damper combination offering two different manually adjustable
  modes is also optionally available.</p>
<p>
  <strong>Upgraded exterior design thanks to M Performance typical
    elements in Cerium Crey.</strong></p>
<p>The sporty aspiration of the X2 M35i, which is the result of its
  inner qualities, is reflected in an exciting exterior design with
  numerous typical M Performance Automobile elements finished in Cerium
  Grey and based on the X2 M Sport Package. This begins at the front
  with full HD technology for the main headlights and fog lights and
  continues with the double kidney grille in Cerium Grey and the newly
  designed side air intakes of the same colour at the front for best
  possible cooling of brakes and engine. The exterior mirrors have been
  upgraded by special caps, likewise in Cerium Grey. At the rear, the X2
  M35i boasts a distinctive M rear spoiler and demonstrates its
  fascinating sovereignty with an M Sport exhaust system with two
  tailpipes (each 100 mm in diameter). Thanks to the adapted silencer
  system, the exhaust system produces a particularly sporty sound
  spectrum. 19-inch M Sport light alloy wheels in 715M styling
  (optional: 20-inch M Sport light alloy wheels in 721M styling and in
  Cerium Grey bicolour) impressively round off the exterior design
  features.  </p>
<p>
  <strong>For the first time Exclusive M sports seats ensure perfect
    seating comfort and lateral support.</strong></p>
<p>An exceptionally sporty look also dominates the interior. As with the
  exterior design, the basis is again the M Sport Package. Moreover, the
  X2 M35i features as standard an M Sport leather steering wheel with
  shift paddles and door entry trims at the front bearing the lettering
  “M35i”. The optional M sports seats at the front are a novelty. They
  offer not only perfect lateral support for both driver and front
  passenger in sharp bends, but also the highest level of comfort and
  safety through integrated headrests. The M sports seats are available
  in the following three different designs:  FabricTrigon/Alcantara
  combination in black with blue accents, Leather Dakota Magmared,
  perforated with black accents and Leather Dakota black perforated.
  Matching seatbelts in an M design are also on offer.</p>
<p>
  <strong>Trend-setting digital competence for state-of-the-art technologies.</strong></p>
<p>In addition to the uncompromisingly sporty orientation of both drive
  system and design, the BMW X2 M35i also demonstrates BMW’s
  trend-setting digital competence in the areas of operation and
  networking. For instance, the full-colour BMW Head-Up Display is among
  the optionally available features. It offers a display range that is
  unprecedented in this vehicle segment. If desired, the latest
  generation of BMW ConnectedDrive and the new BMW Connected App can be
  fitted. Optional functions such as the wireless use of Apple CarPlay
  set further highlights. Driver assistant systems include, for example,
  camera-based technologies such as the traffic jam assistant for less
  tiring driving in dense stop-and-go traffic or the optional parking assistant.</p>
<p>Start of production is November 2018, for European markets not until
  March 2019.</p><div class="import-contacts-wrapper"><div class="import-contact">Press Contact: Paul Sherley<br>Tel: +64 9 573 6977<br>E-mail: <a href="mailto:paul.sherley@bmw.co.nz">paul.sherley@bmw.co.nz</a></div></div></div>]]></description><category><![CDATA[Press Release,F39,X2,Product,BMW]]></category>

<ul>
<li>The new BMW X2 will celebrate its market premiere in March 2018.</li>
<li>The new BMW X2 appeals primarily to a young and young-at-heart,
    urban and active target group who are keen to see their personal
    character reflected on the road through an emotionally-engaging car.</li>
<li>The Sports Activity Coupe is a BMW with a standalone character.
    Its head-turning design combines the discreet robustness of a BMW X
    model with the athletic potency of a coupe.</li>
<li>As well as the standard BMW X2, customers can also choose from the
    BMW X2 M Sport and M Sport X models. The latter brings together
    design elements from BMW M and the BMW X family. Separate lines are
    not available for the BMW X2.</li>
<li>A host of design details underscore the distinctive character of
    the BMW X2. These include the BMW roundel on the C-pillars and the
    styling of the kidney grille, whose outline is wider at its base
    than at its top (for the first time on a modern BMW).</li>
<li>Available for the first time on a BMW are the exterior colour
    shades Galvanic Gold metallic and Misano Blue metallic, plus
    perforated Dakota leather in Magma Red and the Micro Hexagon fabric
    Anthracite/Alcantara combination in Black with M piping and yellow
    contrast stitching.</li></ul>
<ul>
<li>Three engine/transmission variants are offered from launch: the
    BMW X2 xDrive20i petrol model with 141 kW / 192 hp (fuel consumption
    combined: 5.9 – 5.5 l/100 km [47.9 – 51.4 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions
    combined: 134 – 126 g/km)*, plus the X2 xDrive20d diesel variant
    with 140 kW / 190 hp (fuel consumption combined: 4.8 – 4.6 l/100 km
    [58.9 – 61.4 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions combined: 126 – 121 g/km)* and
    X2 xDrive25d diesel with 170 kW / 231 hp (fuel consumption combined:
    5.3 – 5.1 l/100 km [53.3 – 55.4 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions combined:
    139 – 133 g/km)*. Both diesel cars come as standard with xDrive
    intelligent all-wheel drive and the eight-speed Steptronic
    transmission. The petrol model is fitted with the sporty seven-speed
    Steptronic dual-clutch transmission.</li>
<li>Further attractive model variants will be added to the Sports
    Activity Coupe line-up in early 2018 – in the shape of the
    three-cylinder X2 sDrive18i and the four-cylinder X2 xDrive20i, X2
    sDrive18d and X2 xDrive18d. The outputs of the petrol models range
    from 103 kW / 140 hp in the X2 sDrive18i (with manual gearbox, fuel
    consumption combined: 6.3 – 6.0 l/100 km [44.8 – 47.1 mpg imp], CO2
    emissions combined: 144 – 138 g/km**; with seven-speed Steptronic
    dual-clutch transmission, fuel consumption combined: 6.2 – 5.9 l/100
    km [45.6 – 47.9 mpg imp], CO2 emissions combined: 141 – 135 g/km**)
    up to 141 kW /192 hp in the X2 xDrive20i (fuel consumption combined:
    6.2 – 6.1 l/100 km [45.6 – 46.3 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions combined:
    142 – 138 g/km**). The diesel X2 sDrive18d (with manual gearbox,
    fuel consumption combined: 4.6 – 4.5 l/100 km [61.4 – 62.8 mpg imp],
    CO2 emissions combined: 121 – 119 g/km**; with eight-speed
    Steptronic transmission, fuel consumption combined: 4.7 – 4.5 l/100
    km [60.1 – 62.8 mpg imp], CO2 emissions combined: 124 – 118 g/km**)
    and X2 xDrive18d (fuel consumption combined: 5.2 – 4.8 l/100 km

<li>The options list for the BMW X2 includes the latest generation of
    BMW ConnectedDrive and the most recent update of the BMW Connected
    App. Optional functions such as Apple CarPlay and an array of driver
    assistance systems serve up a connected driving experience. Among
    the optional equipment features offered exclusively by the BMW X2 in

<p>* Fuel consumption figures are based on the EU test cycle and may
  vary depending on the tyre format specified.</p>
<p>** Fuel consumption figures are provisional, based on the EU test
  cycle and may vary depending on the tyre format specified.</p>
<p>The fuel consumption and CO2 emissions figures shown were determined
  according to the European Regulation (EC) 715/2007 in the version
  applicable at the time of type approval. The figures refer to a
  vehicle with basic configuration in Germany and the range shown
  considers the different size of the selected wheels and tires. The
  values of the vehicles labelled with (**) are already based on the new
  WLTP regulation and are translated back into NEDC-equivalent values in
  order to ensure the comparison between the vehicles. With respect to
  these vehicles, for vehicle-related taxes or other duties based (at
  least inter alia) on CO2 emissions, the CO2 values may differ to the
  values stated here (depending on national legislation).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The CO2 efficiency specifications are determined according to
  Directive 1999/94/EC and the Pkw-EnVKV, and based (for classification)
  on the fuel consumption and CO2 values as per the NEDC cycle.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Further information on official fuel consumption figures and specific
  CO2 emission values of new passenger cars is included in the following
  guideline: “Leitfaden über Kraftstoffverbrauch, die CO2-Emissionen und
  den Stromverbrauch neuer Personenkraftwagen” (Guideline for fuel
  consumption, CO2 emissions and electric power consumption of new
  passenger cars), which can be obtained free of charge from all
