Second BMW day of the 2018 Detroit Auto Show kicks off with an impressive display of the new X2 family. The world premiere of the new crossover revolved around the M Sport X package and the Galvanic Yellow color. Continuing down the same path of quirky and flashy colors, the X2 is now being introduced in Misano Blue.
All the new paint options for the X2 come to emphasize its demographic, one that has already made the X1 one of the most popular SUVs on the road. Other cool shades include the Sunset Orange and Mediterranean Blue. To millennials and lifestyle people, this is breath of fresh air and a nice departure from the typical and conservative black, white and grey colors.
Powering the BMW X2 will be the typical suite of small four-cylinder engines, both petrol and diesel. So there will be a BMW X2 xDrive18i, xDrive20i, xDrive28i, xDrive20d and xDrive25d. Transmission options will be either a six-speed manual or seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. Though, the one to have is the BMW X2 xDrive20i, as it comes with the most potent of petrol engines — a 2.0 liter turbocharged four-cylinder making 192 hp and 206 lb-ft of torque, with only the DCT gearbox available. BMW claims it can get from 0-60 mph in 7.7 seconds.
