As part of the second version, 2 Series that came out in 2022. One of the few 2+2 sports coupes on the market today is the BMW 2 Series. It has less space in the back seat and costs less than the BMW 4 Series. BMW chose to make a few small changes to this year’s 2 Series, even though it is already one of the best cars in its class. There are a few new choices on the outside, but most of the changes are on the inside. In the 2 Series car, there is a single glass panel that hides two big screens: one for the touchscreen and one for the gauges. In 2025, BMW changed the UI to make it easier to get to the settings and apps you use most. A temperature control bar that stays in place has been added to the bottom of the screen. The system is much more useful now that there is a big change. New interior trim choices for the dashboard and doors, heated front seats as standard, and ambient lighting around the central air vents are some of the other features. Instead, the Ford Mustang is the best choice. It costs less and has more speed when the optional V8 engine is added. Ford’s new Mustang also has many tech features. You might want to consider the improved 2025 Audi S3 instead. The Toyota GR Supra is another car we suggest. Even though it only has two seats, it works the same. Pros vs Cons Pros Quick manipulation. Engines that work well and have four to six cylinders. High-class interior. Cons Squished back seats. Small trunk. It was a rough ride. Performance How does the 2 Series get its power? We want this kind of BMW. Even though our test 230i had summer tires and M Sport parts (suspension, steering, brakes, and rear differential), it handled and performed very well overall. It took us 5.5 seconds to run from 0 to 60 mph. That’s better than the Mercedes-Benz CLA 250 and the Audi A3, and we think the M240i will be able to fight with the Audi S3/RS 3 and the AMG CLA. The four-cylinder turbocharged engine loses some power near the top of the rpm range, but it still has enough power in the low and middle rpm ranges. It feels more than strong whether you’re driving or just going through towns. The handling and stopping are almost as good. The M Sport suspension cuts down on roll at the limit, which makes it easier to control how the body moves. The M Sport differential does a great job of controlling grip, but if you push the 230i, it will slip. The brakes worked great on our test track, stopping from 60 mph in just 107 feet. Applying and releasing the brakes is also very easy when going on the road. The handling of the vehicle is the most frustrating aspect of this predicament. While it’s mostly balanced, there’s no feedback to help you get used to the front tires when you’re driving. Comfort How does it feel to be in the 2 Series? The 2 Series coupe isn’t the most comfortable small car on the market, but it moves smoothly and is nicer to be around than you might think from a sports coupe. Slightly stiffer than standard, the optional M Sport suspension manages to be both sporty and comfortable. The front seats are nice and comfortable, but they can only be adjusted a little. We like that BMW puts most of the temperature settings on the outside of the car. Additionally, the heated steering wheel and seats are functional. Interior How is the interior? Because this is a small car, everything is easy to get to and use, and the drive position is great. Driving the 2 Series with excitement makes it even more exciting. Thanks to its long shape, discreet roof beams, and upright windows, the 2 Series also has fairly small blind spots. At least for front-seat passengers, the 2 Series has enough room. You can stretch out your arms, legs, and shoulders without feeling cramped. The back seat is so bad that adults will find it uncomfortable, even on short trips. Some people won’t or can’t do the gymnastics needed to even get to the back. This doesn’t make sense because the last version of the 2 Series was shorter overall, and the back seat was bigger. Technology What’s wrong with the tech? The entertainment system in the 2 Series has a lot of features and can be used in a lot of different ways, but it could be easier to use. The touchscreen is hard to use and looks like it was thrown together quickly without thinking about how to organize or categorize all the different apps in a useful way. Voice instructions can be used to control the sound and temperature in cars, which is a good thing. Some Google-powered systems or Mercedes’ MBUX are more reliable than speech recognition technology, but they still work pretty well. The optional Harman Kardon sound system has clear sound and a well-rounded bass, even in high settings. Storage What’s going on with storage? Considering how small it is, the 2 Series can hold a fair amount of goods. The 10-cubic-foot trunk is useful, but it’s a lot smaller than the ones in the Audi A3 and Mercedes CLA. There is a lot of storage room inside the 2 Series coupe. There are door pockets and a big armrest bin. The gear selector in your car, on the other hand, makes it hard to get to the wireless charging point for your phone. Even though the 2 Series has mounts for car seats, it will be hard and awkward to put a seat or a child in the back. A car’s back seat is small, even though the seats can be moved forward. If you often carry people in the back, no matter what size, there might be better choices than the 2 Series for you. Fuel Economy How much fuel does it use? The EPA says the 230i with rear-wheel drive can get 30 mpg in both city and highway driving. We got an average of 31 mpg on our 115-mile mixed-drive test route, which is great for this type of car and shows that the EPA’s estimates are correct. Value Is the 2 Series a good deal? The 2 Series hatchback looks different from other cars. The Porsche Cayman is another high-end car, but it doesn’t have a back seat like the Audi A5, BMW 4 Series, Lexus RC, or Toyota GR Supra. All of these are a lot more expensive. Even though the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro are less expensive, they are less high-end than the 2 Series. On the whole, this is a great deal for you. BMW’s average basic and engine warranty is four years or 50,000 miles. The 2 Series also comes with longer warranties than many other brands. It has roadside assistance for four years or unlimited miles and regular repair visits for three years or 36,000 miles. Wildcard The 2 Series feels quick for its size, even though the driving gives you little information. It’s not the fastest BMW on the road, but it’s still more fun to drive than some of its bigger siblings. Another benefit is that it’s less showy than other new BMWs. (4 Series, yes, you are listening in on our conversation.) What is Invoice Pricing's Recommendation? The M240i xDrive was chosen because it keeps the driver interested, which is one of the best reasons for a 2 Series. It has all-wheel drive and 382 horsepower, which is what BMW is known for when it comes to speed and excitement. Styles of the BMW 2 Series The 2025 BMW 2 Series coupe comes in two trim levels: 230i and M240i. The 230i has a turbocharged four-cylinder engine, while the M240i has a turbocharged six-cylinder engine. All trim levels have all-wheel drive, or xDrive, as BMW calls it. Both engines come with an automatic transmission with eight speeds. 2025 BMW 2 Series Video Review
