BMW X2 SUV 2019 in-depth review | carwow Reviews 

X2 looks nicer than the X1 to be honest :)

Love your reviewing style. Seriously the best all around car review person out there, helped answer all the questions I wanted about the x2.

3:11 that's the Bell X-2 the successor of the Bell X-1, the first supersonic aircraft ever made!!

6:41 *Air Brakes* 😂😂😂😂

0:32 That Converse falling lol.

the best thing about you is the way you relate the designs its rally funny..

Just picked up my brand new X2 today. I absolutely love it!. The 7 speed automatic gear box is awesome.

Went to several bmw dealerships trying to compare best prices. The X5 is a bit out of my price range so I was looking at the X1, X2, and the X3. Right off the bat, when you see an X1 and X2 side by side, the X2 looks significantly smaller. My first car was a 2014 mazda 3 hatchback and I have to say, it didn't look too far off from it. The height of the X2 just looks and feels too low for my liking, it looks more like a hatchback than a crossover. Whereas the X1 looks more like an SUV than a crossover. Sitting in the backseat of the X1 and X2 was a night and day difference and is pretty much what sold me. Then I compared the X1 and the X3 together. The X3 is slightly taller but not by much, I'd say less than an inch if that, but what really distinguishes the 2 cars is the extra 10" of length on the X3 than the X1. When looking at them side by side, the X1 looks shorter and stubbier. But this is where the catch comes... just as I was about to sign the papers on the X3, I got in both back-seats one last time. I noticed that the X1 and the X3 felt almost identically spacious on the inside and especially in the back seat. The dealer confirmed with me that the cabin space in the X1 is just about the same as the X3, and actually ironically the X1 has slightly better legroom in the backseat than the X3, the X3 has such a slight amount of more room in the trunk that I hardly noticed, but I did notice 100% that my legs felt a bit more free in the X1. The dealer told me the biggest differences between the X1 and X3 are the vast amount of options you can load the X3 with as opposed to the X1, as well as the 3 different engines you can choose from whereas the X1 only has the 28i as an option. He told me that if I was planning to get the base engine X3 (which I was) it wouldn't be far off from getting the X1. I wasn't looking for anything fast (I'm coming from a 340i) I just wanted something practical and fuel efficient. This car checked off all the boxes. There's a few things I definitely wish the X1 had, like blind spot detection, ventilated seats, and the Harman Kardon surround sound system (X1 only has standard Harman Audio as an extra for $1000) - so that being said there's definitely a few things I'm going to miss with my 340i like the speed and the ear piercing audio, even the dakota leather seats. But sadly my 340i is now out of warranty, and after seeing the check engine light pop up a few times, I'm not ready to cough up thousands of dollars in services, and would rather start fresh again with the 4 year warranty for my peace of mind. Overall the X1 is a fantastic car for people who are looking for a small (but spacious) SUV that can fit all of your belongings, and take you on adventures at ease without breaking your wallet on gas.

X1 is big X2 is small X3 is bigger... 🤔🤨🤨🤨

Love the reviews Matt! Keep the crossover and SUV reviews coming. I''ll be deciding on a new vehicle in the upcoming months for my family soon!

On of your best reviews yet Mat. Enjoyed having more of your honest brutal thoughts about the car in the video rather than holding back your opinion.

Matt is way ahead of the curve in car reviewing world !

I love the X2, it's my favorite! It looks sporty and it's an awesome ride! ♥️

How many different sizes of the same car do you need

Carwow , please do a review on the new BMW 7 series vs Mercedes-benz S class vs Audi a8 vs Lexus LS 500.

Bit nerdy but the main reason for the enlarged fuel filler cap is because it houses both Diesel & Adblue filler caps - unlike my X5 where Adblue is under the bonnet

I'm going to be honest, this is my favourite BMW X-whatever ... it's just got a vibe about it

6:12 is a incredible reference

The brown leather seats color is fantastic and also the interior design is great-sporty and elegant at the same time! Bravo for 182 mm ground clearance,you must mention this in every SUV test dude!

Loved the way you compare the Shoe & it as badging to the BMW X2 😂😂😂😂 who writes your scripts 😊

Love your reviews!!

The x2 is the only suv that I love, there are a lot I like but 1 I love What I love is that it looks like an evolution of the hatchback rather than a hidious suv trying to be like a hatchback

Damn I love these videos, just to see what other cars look and "feel" like.

That blue suitcase makes my day✌🏻

The best car reviewer, love from South Africa ♠

The idea behind badge's strange location as you pointed out Mat, is actually an inspiration applied first to BMW 3.0 CSi Coupé (1974 model). In order for the badge to look aligned with the road while the car accelerates, it has been place at an angle of 3 degrees counter clockwise!

Love your reviews keep them coming

Lol torture mode, I’m in South Africa but you make the best videos ever. Big up to your work.

6:45 French Bulldog cameo!

The X2 is more like a hatchback than an SUV

Been following your videos for years. This is the first time I had difficulty understanding your accent. Following you from Hawaii, USA

I saw a blue one yesterday parked it's actually a looker it turns heads and especially the colors it has!

That price is laughable, you could easily get a basically new 5 series for that with decent equipment on it

I watch reviews of cars I'm not even interested in, purely because it's Matt! 😂

you guys should do a BMW M550i vs an Audi S6 race!!

I found the badge positioning amazing tho

Would like to see a proper review of a lc500

I just found my favorite compact SUV

lol im ot even british but i love the sense of humor this guy has XDD

I love your reviews 🔥 so honest

Just had one of these as a courtesy car and couldn't BELIEVE how incredibly harsh and fidgety the ride was on the m-sport chassis and also the horrendous noise from the 225/40 R18 Goodyear tyres! (It felt too stiffly sprung and under-damped for good measures!?). So glad you mentioned exactly these two issues - thought I was either going mad or being too unfair on an otherwise lovely car!

6:44 DOOOGOOOOOO 😍

I like your old car reviews background !! More Trees (Shades) Not so much this new!! And your RBK Shoes too !! 😂😂😂

Hey Matt, When are you going to review/drag race the 2020 X2 M35i?

Feel like I'm getting a good idea of what to expect for next gen 1 series

1M subs coming up soon so what kind of celebration it's gonna be?

3:12 Heh seems you can fit another X2 in the glovebox of an X2. Nice, just what I needed.

It's really interesting to see how mat explain with the help of choclate or shoes or something else.. creativity ...👌👌👌👌

I think it looks pretty good actually... though it does remind me of the Volvo V40

that is a normal hatch back

Love the bag. Don’t ever change. :D

Was that childseat a Recaro one?

Style is something people will pay for :( and the frenchie is back :)

6:52 OMG FINALLY

Hey Mat, love your reviews, always sticking to ethics of basics and impartiality. YOU DO NEED A HAIRCUT THOUGH LOL. (Oliver)

Large filler cap on Deisel also where your Adblu goes I think?, hence the large fuel filler cap?

I actually quite like it! Its one of the few crossover/ SUV things I would love to own because it fits all my requirements. But 37 grand? Hell no, that's too expensive.

I really like it even though it serves little purpose over the X1

Great aircraft reference there ;)

Love the USAF X2 prototype plane!

Been driving this a couple of times and it is really a nice driving machine. Just needs a large vitural cockpit...

Love BMWs but that car is a good 5 grand over priced. Looks cool but not that practical Id say so Id go X1 out of the two.

This is a review of a 2017 X2 as seen in the number plate, but the title is saying it’s of a 2019 X2. Just helpful point for matt

Could you do a review of the BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer please

'Torture Mode' 🤣🤣🤣

I hate cars with that “storage” netting behind the chairs! It makes premium cars look cheap...

Even though I don't fancy SUV's, I have to say that this car looks very nice indeed!

Excellent review Mat. Car wow Dog at bottom left corner@6:46

No, not for me. I'll avoid it, not compelling. I think you should be pointing out that a higher centre of gravity means a firmer ride or steering response like a boat. Cars like that tend to try and shake your head off. Wouldn't a Passat Wagon have more room, more space, more performance and cost less?

Looks cool❤️😍

Hi, your videos/reviews are very good and informative. Can you please use a microphone in your shirt, as the audio in your videos sometimes isn't that clear and some of the facts are missed from the review.

"BMW X2 xDrive20i M Sport" Erm the clue is in the name (XDrive) so you are wrong, the the petrol is NOT just front wheel drive.

Make a review on the new bentley continental gt 2019

I think this is the first "CUV" that I think looks ok... a proper M version would sell madly I bet

Why the check engine light is on?

looks like the new Astra and the new Clio made love and came out the X2!

This looks like the new 1 series

Can you review the Jeep Compass? It’s always being advertised but there isn’t any English reviews.

This is the car my mum wants and I don’t know why but I suppose it’s not to bad. It’s between this or an Evoque so which do you think would be better?

Would this X2's design serve as a reference to the new 1 Series? As the latter finally leaves it boat-shape?

"It don't feel all that comfortable to me" Lol

Cute dog alert in 6:45, lower left side.

I like it :) bigger no need, this one looks better... I do have a question, reading the papers it sounds like Germany is about to outlaw diesel entirely and a lot of countries are also looking at it thanks to VW, how can you recommend 2L diesel as the best? Or UK centric view only? Thanks!

Great Review! I'd like to know if you guys will be reviewing the new face-lifted Range Rover

We all love your reviews!!! Review more volvo’s plsss

It has a very low ground clearance for an "SUV"

Why is the "check engine" light on? I also noticed this at a Ferrari review also..

Hi Mat, Nice review, thank you for that. The price for the X2 2.0D Xdrive in the Netherlands is 60.000 Euro (excluding any options), which makes it a direct competitor to cars like the Alfa Romeo Stelvio, Jaguar F-Type and the Mercedes GLC. And all of these really are a class higher then the BMW....And this time, it is not the CO2 Tax that makes the BMW so expensive. It is the BMW it self, as the CO2 tax is only 11.000 for X2, the same as for all these other far bigger and heavier cars mentioned. A bit strange really.

After hearing carwow.co.uk for so long, carwow.com these days feels so weird....

REVIEW THE HYUNDAI NEXO!!!

Mat's dog at 6:46 doesn't give a damn about filming lol

Guys i have seen it in person and sat in it. I am 6foot 4" and you have plenty of room. It was M package ... What a beautiful car!!! I just want it so badly!!!

Super video

Jaguar e pace?

The badge on the side came from the 3 liter csl from years ago

Bell X-2 in the glove box, nice ;)

X1 looks like SUV, X2 like ... Raised touring 🤔

I love BMW and have to say, a 2018 BMW car with that interior looks cheap af. I've sat in one at the dealership and it just looks cheap...again, this is not a Kia, this is a BMW with a pricetag to match.

I drove x2 28i for couple days, I think it was very comfortable with 19 inch wheels. I don’t know why mat Donetsk like the suspension. It handles very very well. If I only had this kind of budget, I will buy this car.

Still no Mazda cx5 review. Interested in your opinion of it.
