BMW X2: style and driving impress, but the X1 still makes more sense

The BMW X2 tries to stand out with a sportier shape and a crossover setup full of character. On the road it impresses with its driving position, steering response and a more distinctive image than many rivals.

The issue is that BMW already has the X1, which is more practical, roomier and often a better value for money. The X2 is therefore a style-led choice, while the X1 remains the more complete option.
