This is not for everyone

Great looking, head turner, good performance, car like SUV and not a BOX. Critics need to understand different requirements for different people. Not everybody needs to have very spacious rear seats, nor everyone needs BOX design SUV.

Get behind the wheel and you will tell the difference with the X2. It provides an engaging driving experience unlike most SUVs of this class. We love ours and don't mind a little less cargo space. As empty nesters this model fits our daily life style with ease. It also has been totally reliable, very comfortable, and very good on gas mileage.

We bought this car for no rational reason!

Edmunds says there is no rational reason to buy this car and we agree. We drove the X1 and the Volvo XC40 T5 Inscription before we drove the X2. The X1 and X2 have the same engine, but the sport-tuned transmission and suspension on the X2 make it feel like a peppier, more sporty car. We also liked the exterior styling and 19" wheels of the X2 xDrive M Sport. Visibility out the back is worse on the X2 than the X1 or the XC40. We liked the Volvo XC40 better than the X1, but we liked the X2 best of all. I should note this is our second car, so we will not rely on it as our primary family car or vacation car.

Perfect for lease

Overall I am happy with the X2. I got a really good deal on a lease however, if not for the deal I would probably not purchase the car. Here are my pros and cons. Pros - looks great inside and out, handles great/quick, apple play, nice and relatively easy to use technology, seats are comfy, bright headlamps. Cons - poor visibility (literally cannot see out the back window if middle head rest is in), disappointed for a car that retails for 41k does not have blind spot monitoring (even other makes costing half have this), limited space in back, trunk space is not bad though, cup holders very small.

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!
