The BMW 2 Series is a compact premium vehicle range produced by the German manufacturer BMW. Introduced in the mid-2010s, the 2 Series encompasses multiple body styles, including coupe, convertible, and multi-purpose variants such as the Active Tourer and Gran Coupe. It is positioned above the BMW 1 Series within the brand’s lineup.
The coupe and convertible versions are typically rear-wheel drive (with optional all-wheel drive in some models) and emphasize sporty handling and performance. In contrast, the Gran Coupe and Active Tourer variants use a front-wheel-drive-based platform designed to maximize interior space and practicality. Engine options range from efficient four-cylinder units to high-performance models developed under BMW’s M division.
The BMW 2 Series combines compact proportions with premium interior materials, digital instrumentation, and advanced driver-assistance systems. It is intended to offer a balance between everyday usability and dynamic driving characteristics within a compact format.
