- The model update for the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer and BMW 2
Series Gran Tourer will be introduced onto the market in March 2018.
Sales of BMW’s first Sports Activity Tourer (SAT) in the premium
compact class exceeded 380,000 units between 2014 and 2017. The two
models – which stand out with their functional space concept – are
therefore among the brand’s bestsellers. Their biggest market is
Germany, followed by China and Great Britain. The conquest rate is
high, with more than 70 per cent of customers new to the BMW brand.
- New front-end look with wide, single-piece air intake and more
striking kidney grille underlines the car’s sporty and elegant
appearance. The newly designed rear apron with larger exhaust
tailpipes (twin tailpipes for all four-cylinder models) accentuates
the car’s width. Particularly dynamic design for BMW 2 Series Active
Tourer and
- BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer models equipped with the new M Sport package.
- Two new exterior colours (Jucaro Beige and Sunset Orange) and six
new light-alloy wheel designs in 17, 18 and 19-inch formats increase
the scope for individualisation. Exclusive materials and new seat
covers in cloth/Sensatec and leather add extra class to the
interior. New electronic selector lever in models with seven-speed
dual-clutch Steptronic transmission or eight-speed Steptronic.
- New design for the optional LED headlights and Adaptive LED
Headlights with dazzle-free high beam. Familiar twin circular
headlights, here with a hexagonal look, create an even more
cutting-edge and eye-catching effect. Also new: the design of the
optional LED front foglamps.
- Latest-generation petrol and diesel engines with extensive
efficiency- enhancing modifications, e.g. to the crankshaft, heat
management, valve train and turbocharging. BMW 2 Series Active
Tourer engines develop outputs from 80 kW/109 hp to 170 kW/231 hp,
the power units for the BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer from 80 kW/109 hp
to 141 kW/192 hp. Combined-cycle fuel economy for the new BMW
EfficientDynamics engine family comes in at between 6.4 and 4.3
l/100 km (44.1 and 65.7 mpg imp), which equates to combined CO2
emissions of 147–112 g/km.
- From 3/2018 all diesel engines will employ exhaust gas treatment
technology including a diesel particulate filter, NOX adsorber
catalyst and SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) system, which uses
urea solution (AdBlue) injection to effectively reduce nitrogen
oxides in the car’s exhaust gases. All four-cylinder diesels now
feature BMW TwinPower Turbo technology incl. two turbochargers.
- Plug-in hybrid BMW 225xe iPerformance Active Tourer with electric
range of 45 kilometres (28 miles), system output of 224 hp and
combined fuel economy of 2.5–2.3 l/100 km [113–122.8 mpg imp] (CO2
emissions: 57–52 g/km).
- Seven-speed dual-clutch Steptronic transmission available for the
first time in the two models, alongside an eight-speed Steptronic
transmission and six-speed manual. The 220i is fitted as standard
with the seven-speed dual-clutch Steptronic transmission, the 225i
xDrive and 220d with the eight-speed Steptronic.
- Innovative operating concept with latest-generation iDrive system
(available since 7/2017). Optional navigation systems with 6.5 or
8.8-inch touchscreen, voice control and iDrive operation with
touch-sensitive interface.
- BMW ConnectedDrive Services (available since 7/2017) offer
exceptional levels of connectivity. Real Time Traffic Information
(RTTI), Time-to-Leave notifications and Share Destination via app,
web and calendar, plus Microsoft Exchange function for sharing and
editing emails, calendar entries and contact data. Smartphone
integration easier thanks to Apple CarPlay. Inductive charging for
compatible mobile phones and a WiFi hotspot for up to ten devices
also included.
- Extensive line-up of driver assistance systems, including Active
Cruise Control – with adaptive speed regulation between 140 km/h (87
mph) and rest – and the Traffic Jam Assistant, which automatically
keeps the car in its lane at up to 60 km/h (37 mph); both assistance
systems are part of the optional Driving Assistant Plus package.
CO2 EMISSIONS & CONSUMPTION.
The fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and operating range figures were
determined according to the European Regulation (EC) 715/2007 in the
version applicable at the time of type approval. The figures refer to
a vehicle with basic configuration in Germany and the range shown
considers the different sizes of the selected wheels/tyres. The values
for the vehicles marked (**) are already based on the new WLTP test
cycle and are translated back into NEDC-equivalent values in order to
ensure comparability between the vehicles. With respect to these
vehicles, for vehicle-related taxes or other duties based (at least
inter alia) on CO2 emissions, the CO2 values may differ from the
values stated here. The CO2 efficiency specifications are determined
according to Directive 1999/94/EC and the Pkw-EnVKV, and based (for
classification) on the fuel consumption and CO2 values as per the NEDC cycle.

CO2 emission information.
Fuel consumption, CO2 emission figures and power consumption and range were measured using the methods required according to Regulation VO (EC) 2007/715 as amended. They refer to vehicles on the German automotive market. For ranges, the NEDC figures take into account differences in the selected wheel and tyre size, while the WLTP figures take into account the effects of any optional equipment.
All figures have already been calculated based on the new WLTP test cycle. NEDC figures listed have been adjusted to the NEDC measurement method where applicable. WLTP values are used as a basis for the assessment of taxes and other vehicle-related duties which are (also) based on CO2 emissions and, where applicable, for the purposes of vehicle-specific subsidies. Further information are available at www.bmw.de/wltp and at www.dat.de/co2/.
