2018 t23-dhp is a loaner vehicle supplied by Flemington BMW while my 14 X3 is having service performed. So here is my "drive home" review.. Looks...beautiful metallic gray color, real pretty lines, backseat would create a lot of negative boos from my Grandkids and the "trunk area" received boos from my wife. Ride, engine power, handling, and all of that, compares equally to my beloved X3. Quick bottom line....to small and much to expensive for the market. My X3 was around the same price but my Grandkids loved the backseat and my wife is still very happy with the "trunk". I do have to bring this loaner back today so I am going to have less than 30 miles driving this car, but this review is basically comparing our X3 to your new X2. Overall a very curbside pretty car with the expected BMW performance.. Thank You....John

X2 - First BMW

First time BMW owner. Drove nothing but Honda’s for years; traded a 2012 Honda Pilot that I LOVED - as a single woman didn’t need the space - for a 2018 X2. I have always wanted a white BMW 3-Series, but was looking to drive something unique AND within my budget. I always travel by car and normally alone, so reliability is important to me. Initially, I regretted purchasing the X2 as it was hard getting used to its size. After 9 months of driving the X2, here is my pros and con list. Pros: fun to drive, good gas mileage, great pick-up, excellent maneuvering, and smooth ride - glides down the highway with no engine strain! Cons: HORRIBLE side visibility - which truly is my only complaint. I would never recommend this car for an inexperienced or unskilled driver. To address complaints I’ve read, the lack of blind spot indicators doesn’t bother me as I’ve been driving 35 years without them and am not accustomed to such. Road noise is also not a huge factor for me as I normally listen to music and don’t notice any. Besides, as long as the engine is quiet, and it is (when parked, I can’t tell if my car is on/off) - I’m good. I now know, I prefer large SUV’s. Lol - I also know I can’t afford a large BMW SUV! With that said, I believe the X2 is a great intro to the brand. I don’t see X2’s at EVERY stoplight and that’s nice! I’ll probably buy a “more popular” BMW in a few years, but for now, I’m definitely enjoying the drive!

Responsive, agile, comfortable. The controls were easy to see and reach. The seats were comfortable and fit me perfectly. The car was just the right size for my purposes since I would have been the only person using the car. There was plenty of room for my packages on a day of shopping. The ride was smooth and transmission shifting was almost unnoticeable. The different driving modes were definitely a plus since I live in Western NY where the weather can change on a moments notice. The day I took it out on a test drive, it was sunny, warm and dry. The vehicle was just what I was looking for! Unfortunately, a black exterior with a black interior was like driving a funeral vehicle for me. Would have purchased it the day I drove it but the colors were something I couldn't live with. The dealer didn't offer up any options to purchase a new build and this was the only X2 on their lot. I was not happy at all with the dealership but the car was exciting to experience.

An Expensive Piece of Crap

Unfortunately, in 24 months and with only 18,000 miles, my X2 needs new brakes (front and back, rotors and pads), an alignment and new run-flats. A couple grand total. I've been driving for 40 years and this is the first car I've ever had, for any period of time, that needs brakes at all, or that needs four new expensive tires at 18,000 miles. Fool me once...

I purchased the 2018 BMW X2 Xdrive for a few reasons: 1.) needed to have a better trade in/resale value of the 340i i owned. It was getting up in miles. 2.) would be traveling into hilly, snowy areas, where an AWD would suit my needs better. At the dealership i drove; X3, X3 M340i and the X2 x drive. I like the crossover look of the X2. Yet, when test driving (hind sight is always 20/20), i kept remarking the slightly rough idling of the car at a stop. I was also not pleased with the hesitation and slightly mushy breaking - all of which I expressed to the salesman and his response was, "it is because you are driving a car with less performance". I bought the car anyway, believing them. I was wrong. At the car's first checkup, i was in a X2 loaner. TOTALLY different ride! The car dealership looked into my X drive X2 and states that all of the diagnostics are fine. AND, that the loaner is not an AWD. So, you mean to tell me that BMW cannot account for the variations necessary in an AWD vs FWD, and correct for good breaking, no hesitation, and this intermittent rough idle? DO NOT BUY!!! The hesitation alone is dangerous; and I have experienced more than once precarious situations ALL due to this car's hesitation factor! That is why i rated one star for reliability. This car is NOT BMW worthy. Hope BMW reads this.
