Following its global debut earlier in October, the second-generation BMW X2 is now on display at the ongoing Japan Mobility Show. Pictured are two versions of the Sports Activity Coupe (SAC), namely the all-electric iX2 xDrive30 and the petrol-powered X2 M35i xDrive.
The former is a first for the X2 and features a dual-motor setup for all-wheel drive, with both front and rear electric motors rated at 190 PS (188 hp or 140 kW) and 247 Nm. Together, the total system output, including temporary boost, is 313 PS (308 hp or 230 kW) and 494 Nm. The specifications of the powertrain are as follows:
- Electric motors output: 313 PS (308 hp or 230 kW) and 494 Nm with temporary boost
- 0-100 km/h time: 5.6 seconds
- Top speed: 180 km/h
- Battery: 64.7 kWh lithium-ion

- AC charging: 11 kW; 0-100% in 6.5 hours; 22 kW optional
- DC charging: 130 kW; 10-80% in 29 minutes
As for the petrol-powered variant, the X2 M35i xDrive leads the range as the M Performance offering with standard adaptive M suspension and optional M Compound brakes. The specifications of this variant are as follows:
- Engine: 2.0 litre turbocharged inline-four petrol
- Engine output: 300 PS (296 hp or 221 kW) in Europe, 317 PS (312 hp or 233 kW) in the US and other markets; 400 Nm
- Transmission: Seven-speed Steptronic dual-clutch with xDrive all-wheel drive system
- 0-100 km/h: 5.4 seconds
- Top speed: 250 km/h
Compared to the original X2, the new one boasts a radical redesign featuring a model-specific front end to differentiate it from the latest X1. The rear end is also pretty unique thanks to the taillights that are notched at the bottom a prominent spoiler lip on the rear deck. The all-new X2 is also a larger car than before with these dimensions:
- Length: 4,554 mm (+194 mm)
- Width: 1,845 mm (+21 mm)
- Height: 1,590 mm (+64 mm)
- Wheelbase: 2,692 mm (+22 mm)
- Boot space: 525 to 1,400 litres (iX2 xDrive30), 560 to 1,470 litres (X2 M35i xDrive)
Inside, the X2 gets the BMW Curved Display made up of a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10.7-inch central touchscreen. These are linked to the latest iDrive infotainment powered by BMW Operating System 9, which includes the BMW Intelligent Personal Assistant. The rest of cabin is familiar to those that have been in the latest X1.
Given BMW Malaysia’s rapid introduction of new electric vehicles (EVs) from the German carmaker, there’s a possibility that the iX2 could be introduced here to join the iX1 as a sportier-looking alternative. Enjoy these photos and let us know what you think of the latest X2 in the comments below.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
The rhd convertion is so poorly done even worse than those french cars…
Then why many people will still buy rhd conversion that are made from europe, are you complaining because you are too jealous
With a car so good like this, who will even buy Benz EQB? Benz malaysia, pls close shop. Take your poor quality cars out and shove it up your arse.
The 2nd row to me is too straight and hard, not comfortable.

Same like Mercedes. Mercedes EV global sales are now real failure not only just poorly design. Those tasks for mercedes ev such as comfortable, quality, power, etc aren’t at better standard as other EV vehicle brands
bmw is just making up segments now and i feel like they have too many products on offer. it would probably make sense if these cars looked good…as much as i like bmw, this just doesn’t look good. like at all. no matter what angle.
Nice
Definitely much better looking than Mercedes models
Nice car
way better than eqb and glb
BMW fans always bitter when people criticising BMW
Aiyaaa…who wanna to care about your problem and your haters problem here, can sense that you are very jealous. That’s why people will judge on what cars they love but not forcing them to listen to you.
More like mercedes fanbois are getting more desparate by defending their comments when mercedes fanbois as usual can’t accept when people criticizing mercedes.
Looking forward to being in here. BMW Malaysia better bring as quickly as possible
Looking forward to bring in here. BMW Malaysia better bring as quickly as possible
