BMW 2 Series Coupe

M240i xDrive 2dr Step Auto [Tech Pack] [2025.5]

The BMW 2 Series range is enormously confusing, but if you’re ready, here’s a quick run down. Let’s start with the dull-but-worthy stuff: the MPVs. There’s a 2 Series Active Tourer, which is a bit like an overgrown 1 Series hatchback, in that it’s a five-door family car with lots of space and a modern cabin. We’re also expecting that to spawn a seven-seat Gran Tourer (no, we don’t know what happened to the ‘D’, either) version.

At the opposite end of the scale is the 2 Series Gran Coupe (again with the missing D), which is a kind of coupe version of the 1 Series, except it comes with four doors so it’s actually a kind of fastback. Then there’s this – the 2 Series Coupe – which is a two-door coupe that’s about the same size as the Gran Coupe but is otherwise completely unrelated. Hope that clears everything up.

Anyway, this 2 Series is the sporty number, the one you’d choose if you don’t have children or responsibilities. It doesn’t have much in the way of natural rivals, but it’s vying for your affection alongside the Porsche 718 Cayman, the Audi TT and the Alpine A110, all of which are much sportier to look at. But could the unassuming BMW be the one that makes them all look a bit silly?
