The 2026 BMW X2 feels as comfortable as ever, and now you can get into it with Comfort Access Keyless Entry. New for this year, the Veganza perforated upholstery comes in stunning Castanea, Smoke White, and Atlas Grey/Smoke White combinations.
Many people think the coupe sacrifices room, but that’s not entirely true. You still get 25.3 cubic feet of storage space behind the rear seats. Fold down the rear seats, and the X2 opens up to 51.7 cubic feet of storage space. You only lose 0.4 cubic feet compared to the X1 because of the sloping roofline. Plus, the Sky Lounge Panoramic Roof makes the interior feel even bigger than it is. |

The X2 stands out visually with its unique combination of luxury SUV presence and coupe design flair. While the X1 follows traditional SUV styling, the X2 takes a bolder approach with its sloping roofline. This year brings exciting new exterior colors: Vegas Red metallic, Night Dusk Blue, and Dune Grey metallic.
One thing that separates the X1 from the X2 is the wheels. The X2 starts standard with 19-inch wheels and goes up to 21 inches. The X1 ranges from 18 to 20 inches. Additional exterior features like Auto-Dimming Mirrors and the power liftgate are convenient as well. In terms of lighting, you’ll love the LED front headlights and taillights that provide excellent visibility and the illuminated kidney grille. |

BMW delivers on the technology front yet again with features that make every drive more enjoyable and connected. New for this year are upgrades to the Digital Key system. The system now comes with a Setup Card featuring a QR code that works with any major smartphone. You can easily share the Digital Key with other people by sending them a text message. Activation is possible on up to 18 devices.
An ingenious feature lets you set roles and permissions for each device. If the car detects your teen is driving, it can limit acceleration and top speed. The same goes for elderly parents who might benefit from gentler performance settings. The foundation of the tech experience is the standard BMW Curved Display with BMW’s Operating System 9 and Intelligent Personal Assistant. By the way, there’s a new voice option for the assistant that sounds more natural than ever. You can connect with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto without plugging in any cables, and you get Remote Software Upgrades. AirConsole games and fully-integrated streaming capabilities turn waiting time into entertainment time. |

All models come standard with Active Driving Assistant. This includes features like Active Blind Spot Detection that watches areas you can’t see easily. Frontal Collision Warning with City Collision Mitigation helps prevent accidents before they happen.
On the touchscreen, you can use the Surround View cameras to see your X2 from above. Once you reach your destination, parking gets easier with available assistance features. The car can steer itself into tight spots while you control the speed. Even parallel parking becomes stress-free with this technology helping guide you in. |

The 2026 BMW X2 lineup offers two models that share many incredible features but have important distinctions to note. Our Glendale customers often ask about the differences, so let’s explore what makes each model special.
xDrive28i |
M35i |
|---|---|
 |
 |
| The xDrive28i serves as the base model with a slightly less powerful engine but includes many of the same incredible features as the M35i. It all starts with standard 19-inch Y-Spoke Bicolor wheels that look sharp and sporty. The kidney grille adds athletic character to the front end.
Inside, comfortable and luxurious perforated Veganza upholstery welcomes you every time you sit down. All those new colors we mentioned earlier are available here. A nice design touch is the raised gearshift lever on the center console. It falls naturally to hand and adds a sporty feel to gear changes. You get all the same tech as the M35i, including the BMW Head-Up display that projects important information onto the windshield. We recommend adding the optional BMW Live Cockpit Professional for even more digital displays and customization options. |
The M35i brings serious performance with its Motorsport engine and M components throughout the vehicle. This is the choice for drivers who want maximum thrills. With all that extra power, you need more stopping ability. We also recommend the available 19″ M Compound brakes with perforated heat-resistant brake discs featuring the M logo. These high-performance brakes can be mounted on the giant 21-inch M light alloy wheels for the ultimate setup.
It offers seven wheel choices compared to the xDrive28’s three options, with none being smaller than 20 inches. You can identify this as an M model from the style of its M mirrors, M Kidney Grille, and M rear spoiler. Four exhaust tailpipes hint at the power within. The M Sport Package Pro adds black exhaust finishers for an even more aggressive look. Inside, available M Sport Seats provide extra support during spirited driving. The black trim option gets replaced with new Hexacube Aluminum trim that looks modern and technical. Alcantara and Veganza upholstery features blue M stitching that runs from the dashboard to the door trim. The M35i adds Sport MyMode driving setting for when you want maximum performance. |
