BMW X2 2026

FROM $65,100

The 2026 BMW X2 range of configurations is currently priced from $65,100.

Our most recent review of the 2026 BMW X2 resulted in a score of 7.4 out of 10 for that particular example.

Carsguide Contributing Journalist Byron Mathioudakis had this to say at the time: Two years ago, a drive in the X2 xDrive20i AWD left us underwhelmed.Today, mostly for the better, and despite losing a cylinder and rear-drive capability, the new base sDrive20i FWD seems closer to more traditional BMW values.

BMW X2 2026 Interior

The BMW X2 is a small SUV with rakish styling and a sloping rear section, but it remains easy to get in and out of the interior.

The dash is a harmonious blend of integrated display screens and physical buttons.

There’s space aplenty up front for occupants to stretch out, on exceptionally comfortable bolstered sports seats, the driving position is excellent, providing easy reach to all controls, ventilation is superb and storage is abundant.

The large multimedia touchscreen is slick and fast, with clear graphics and easy-to-decipher menus.

The X2 also offers a comparatively roomy rear seat area, with sufficient legroom and headroom despite the fastback roofline and small-ish apertures. A 40/20/40 reclinable backrest split provides individual configurations, while access to all expected amenities like vent outlets and USB-C ports is easy.

Our only notes are fat pillars and shallow side glass do limit vision and the hexagonal instrumentation is no patch on BMW’s traditional analogue dials.

BMW X2 2026 Boot Space

The BMW X2 offers a cargo capacity of 515 litres, extending to 1400L with all three (fiddly) backrests folded flat, and there’s some extra underfloor storage too.

But the lack of a spare wheel is a black mark. The supplied tyre repair kit is insufficient for Australia.

BMW X2 2026 Towing Capacity

The 2026 BMW X2 has maximum towing capacity of 1800kg. Some models also offer heavy-duty or towing option packs which can increase towing capacity, as well as options which can hamper towing capacity. Towing capacities can vary wildly on a large number of factors. These include engine, transmission, model, and options chosen. Always check with the manufacturer or in your vehicles handbook before attempting to tow anything.
