NEW BMW 220i Coupe | First Drive (4K) 

220i 170 hp 240 Nm 8.1 sec. It's not true, here in germany: 220i 184 HP 300 Nm 7.5 sec

I'll be getting this one very soon. This saturday will be my first test drive and then I'll be buying it. I dont care what anyone says about the 230 being the sweet spot. For me this will be my first BMW car and so far I've only owned cheap cars with like 80HP. So owning an RWD car with 180HP for the first time is going to be more than enough for me.

My wife took delivery of her 220i recently, the thundernight is a wow colour, what a beautiful car to drive

Saw the M240i in Rybrook Warwick and I really like it - pictures don't do it justice. Arguably best looking BMW at the moment

I love that 2022 bmw 220i 😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Matt. Do i need to comment? You know exactly what i am going to write.... Perfect! Quite possibly the best BMW car ...ever? Design is indeed ''bob on''! From all angles and the BMW build quality and of course we know reliability. 220i : why not? Ticks all the boxes as an everyday car. Perfection! [Oh and a true world review! As always Thank You.]

Ordered the 220i in Mineral white with pro pack and comfort pack. Nearly switched to the Brooklyn Grey. My first BMW. Looking forward to it coming...few month yet though!

I liked your review so much I went to our local dealer (in Australia) to test drive - fell in love with it and bought it on the spot. Not sure if I should thank you or curse you - I’ve now got some debt but hey - I’ve got a great car in the garage.

Really nice car!

Just traveled ~450mi each way to trade in my car for a 230i in the US. I love this car - don’t need the power of the M240i & couldn’t afford that model anyway. Got it in Thudernight Metallic & it’s a terrific color. I figure this 220i is pretty close to my 230i. Great review!

This was a very good honest review even though it's over a 1 year old and the car has changed . I think the 230i is the sweet spot of the car, but I'm going to drive both the 2024 230 and 240 and let's see what happens.

Fantastic review! Thank you. One question i have is does the 220i coupé have keyless entry and remote engine start as standard or as an extra?? Would be good to know. Many thanks

Awsome car! Ordered one myself in portimao blue with M-Sport Pro Pack and Harman Kardon 🔥

I’m in America. I just ordered a 230i. We don’t get the 220i here. What is the difference in the engines other than power output? Is it just a tune? Can you simply tune a 220 to perform like a 230?

If you can go for the 230i, it’s actually quick, but stay out of sport mode if gas mileage is important to you

I've had a BRZ since the day they were released (2012). I've enjoyed it so much. Thing is I've gotten older the BRZ sits very low and honestly I'm starting to find getting in and out is becoming a task. On top of that my elderly father who I'm needing to drive around often is having issues with how restricting the BRZ is to get in and out of. The length of the doors is quite the problem in tight car parking especially when you're not a yoga guru. So my question is, if you had opportunity to drive a BRZ (or G86) how do you compare getting in and out of the BMW 220 coupe? It's far time I replaced my BRZ (reluctantly) because I've not have had any issues with it at all, and yet I don't want to go the way of a boring ride.

Would you take a nice spec 220i coupe over a M235i Gran Coupe ? we had ordered a M235i GC last year but we are told now that delivery will be early next year now .

A polite request... Im asking All car reviewers and Auto Journalists to do the same. Please show and let us know detailed information about the tyre that comes with the new vehicle (Brand, type, summer/winter/all-season, speed, size and general auto industry tyre reviews grading of the tyre - meaning, good, average, bad)) Why? 2 Reasons... 1. The tyre is the most important safety feature of any car, as it is the ONLY thing that connects the vehicle with the road, regardless of how good or poor the car is itself. 2. By Auto Journalists and car RU-vidrs doing this, it will hopefully start vehicles manufacturers taking note. It may even hopefully push them towards going with best ranked tyre manufacturer, or at least offering different tyres for a customer to have a choice that will be put on the vehicle, with the best available tyre, as well as a tyre that is suitable for the time of year that it is sold. For example, living in Northern Scotland, UK, every time i pick-up a new car, often in December, regardless of European car manufacturer, they 'only' put summer tyres on it for the UK market. Yet the safe and sensible customer focused safety thing to do, would be putting on All Season tyres as a minimum. So for last 10 years, every new car i have had (5), from picking the car up at a dealership, within 30 minutes I've had to drive straight to a tyre specialists (If road conditions allow and no snow or ice) and put on Winter Tyres and in recent years with tyre technology, All Season tyres. This is often an extra £1000+ cost on top of what I've just paid for the vehicle. It is crazy and frustrating car manufactures will not listen or change and car nothing to the safety of their customers, certainly in the UK market. Thank-you..

What colours did people order their 220i Coupe in and why? I am torn between the blue, grey and the red. Leaning more towards the Portimao Blue.

Did you find puting the car into comfort mode improved the ride quality?

whats up with the shoulder of the drivers seat? leather not properly done?

Right hand drive, is this in the UK?

220i have 184 hp made in México

Cant out run my Genesis coupe. :/

This car needs a v8 twin turbo

I like it but it looks worse then previous generaton, objectively has less space in the back and only auto transmition. not really an improvement except for the interior

Cant out run my Genesis coupe. :/
