I totally agree with you very much - their even numbered "cars" all look "odd" - and this iX2 just joined that group. Looks hideous IMO. I just love the X1 - Used to own the X3 G01 and I think the current latest X1 is really good.
great video, Joe! Always appreciate your content. One remark, tho - it does seem the sound volume is rather low on this video, would be great if you and your team can have a look!
Thanks for your lovely video, but I need to know what is the type and name and model of the camera in your hand please, I am looking for good camera and I need someone provide me with a good brand and model. Again good luck with you with your videos and have a happy new year xx
Another amazing review. I'm seriously considering getting one. Please help me Joe,what is the range difference by selecting the 20inch wheels over the 19inch. I can't find any info anywhere and the dealership is telling me there is no difference, but you said there is a slight difference. How much range will the 20s cost me, please? As there is one in stock for a great deal but comes with the 20inch wheels.
Regarding the disc vs drum brakes, i understand it feels like cost cutting to use drums. However the rear brakes only do 25% of the work on normal cars and are even less utilised on EVs. As such i don't think discs are are a big deal.
I was in China recently, trust me Chinese electric cars are so much better made and better designed than European brands....certainly much better looking than BMW's recent efforts.
Was really hoping the new X2 was going to be a better sportier X1 which I really like but on first glance really disappointed, and why is it like all cars far bigger than the previous model which was ideal. Just like the Audi concepts for the Q3 which looked amazing especially in sports back the actual car is nothing like it just like the concepts of the X2 which looked incredible. Why doesn’t any brand make a medium small sporty SUV that isn’t 4.7 metres long and weighs close to 2 tonne. My latest M240I weighs almost 200 kg more than the previous M235I -mainly due to being Xdrive but even so
Elle est magnifique.juste la calandre avant.Pour moi il manque juste une bande rouge entre l'arico et le bas du par choc avant. Parce que ça fait un peu comme Lexus . En tout cas elle est belle et agressive. LE PLAISIR DE CONDUIRE. Encore aux rendez-vous 😉😍
It’s a big NO from me for this model. 267 mile range is terrible and that is WLTP which normally an EV makes 70% of that on a motorway at 70mph, which equates to under 190 miles. Last year I bought the new model BMW 230e active tourer which is xdrive, more powerful at 326bhp, lighter and quicker (GPS timed 0-60mph in 5.0 seconds), has 40-50 miles of range on a charge for daily commuting and a range of over 400 miles and only takes 5 mins to fill up with petrol. PHEV is the way to go until EV’s have a proper 400 mile motorway range and the infrastructure to charge is as good and as quick as a petrol refill. Oh, just to add I have been on the UK configurator and to spec the iX2 to the same as my 230e costs over £60k and a 230e is under £50k new!
The designs of SUVs are terrible. They all look the same but I have to say BMs attempts lately have been pretty naff and the iX2 typifies everything that is bad. Why cant they be as brave as some of the Koreans?? Tjey need a new design look. 😮
the BMW have lose their traditional style!!! ye u so right the old x2 looks 10 milions much better , this new BMW's of 2024 looks like Corvette(Chevrolet) 🤮🤮 the front lights the back lights with this triangles exactly like corvette 🤮 get the 5 Series or M5 from 2024 to 2008 in retro, much older much Modern and beautiful it looks !!!!!!!! !!!!! !!!!!!!
I have added the "Thanks" button (above), small channel donations will help keep me going in 2024 ♥
Thanks 🎉 I been watching you for awhile now. Really enjoyed your channel. To your bigger success in 2024 😊
I love it❤
This is my cup of tea☕️

Yep, there is no way I would have the X2 over the current X1.
the x6m looked better tho
Wow. People actually approved that design.
great video, Joe! Always appreciate your content. One remark, tho - it does seem the sound volume is rather low on this video, would be great if you and your team can have a look!
Thanks buddy and noted 👌 PS wish I had a team 😉👊
@@JoeAchilles1 no way, tell me not you do this all by yourself?
Thanks for your lovely video, but I need to know what is the type and name and model of the camera in your hand please, I am looking for good camera and I need someone provide me with a good brand and model. Again good luck with you with your videos and have a happy new year xx
Great video again Joe!
Agree with you on the exterior looks.
Still too expensive, though… despite its other qualities…
Cheers, Tom.
Audi using drum brakes? Wow... 😳
Nice video, as always!
I kinda like it
Seeing a lot of Kia Rio on the front n sides

Can I ask why with the 20 inch wheels you loose range? And what’s the difference when you put 20 inch in thermal cars? Thanks
Thoughts on value for money and comparison with the i4 edrive35?
Great video Joe. Thank you mate.
Looks awesome!

Think the X235i should do well , good size for UK roads
Well done BMW, another horrific looking vehicle 👏
Looks like a Chinese knock off of a BMW, how disappointing

It really does you ain’t lying

Looks like a 5 series GT on raised suspension, clearly had a load of unsold shells to recycle as nobody bought them first time round 😂

LE PLAISIR DE CONDUIRE.

It looks like an American SUV in miniature.
Fire red metallic or “wine” as my mother would call it.
Have BMW confirmed formally that all subscription costs for heated seats, steering wheel etc. for all new model cars is over?
Prefer the look of the outgoing model.
Agree that BMW ‘s look ever more like Hyundai’s/Toyota’s etc.
Who is responsable for these exterior designs?? 😂😂
My nex 🚗
Bring Bangle Back
i can't get over the fact that they expect me to control what amounts to a tablet while driving.
Love the colour... ummm... definite Chinese MG vibe. Big population, big influence.
I know we should wait until we see it in the metal but I'm not keen. Typical of current BMW.
Vegenza leather sir😊😅
It can’t be Vegenza and leather……..sir

rear 3 quarters and the back are kind of hideous

Yawwwwnnnn….a million miles away from what a BMW should be…
Another absolutely horrendoes exterior design from BMW.
Wtf is happening to bmw.. been a fan of the brand for 30 years but these days it looks like those chinese or toyota-like bs cars
That looks atrocious. Might be the worst looking car on sale. It's a modern take on the Pontiac Aztek.
Not my favourite out of the BMW range….still not a fan of electric
No I drive really.
Yes, idrive 9
SUV Coupe…what is the point? Build a car with more space then chop the back off. Bloody awful looking thing.
IX2.. Nah.... Sorry. Don't like this coupes like, ID.5, Enyaq RS..
the BMW have lose their traditional style!!! ye u so right the old x2 looks 10 milions much better , this new BMW's of 2024 looks like Corvette(Chevrolet) 🤮🤮 the front lights the back lights with this triangles exactly like corvette 🤮
get the 5 Series or M5 from 2024 to 2008 in retro, much older much Modern and beautiful it looks !!!!!!!! !!!!! !!!!!!!
It seems that the new BMW models are getting designed by blind people. I think it’s ugly. 😮💨
The EV dream is over 29% of US buyers have gone back to gas already 😢
Horrendous defo lost the plot
