New BMW X2: Teaser Highlights

The new-generation X2 shows coupe-SUV proportions, which is a substantial upgrade over the current model's hatchback-type crossover appearance. Additionally, it appears to get a sweeping roofline, similar to that of the X4 and the X6 models. This has been made possible because of a greater rear overhang than before. There are also indications of the integrated rear spoiler, the high-mounted taillights, and more. The illuminated grille is also revealed in the teaser. Moreover, the headlights featured C-shaped LED daytime running lights.

Although there aren't any interior teasers, the new X2 is expected to be substantially identical to that of the X1, with a 10.7-inch infotainment screen and a 10.25-inch digital driver display on the BMW Curved Display.
