New generation
New look
New motor & performance
New interior & tech
What’s under the skin
This, like the X1, rides on a MINI chassis
So it’s FWD-based BUT, also like the X1, xDrive std
Engine
Due to the MINI underpinnings the engine is mounted transverse
2.0T 4 cylinder
312 hp
Same 295 lbft as normal X2
Trans
7 speed DCT…very Mini
Great when you’re on it, less great when casual
Performance
0-60 in 5.2 seconds
Sounds pretty cool
Reminds me of the JCW character I love so much
Looks
Looks VERY baby X6…actually kinda like it
The grille bleeds into lower fascia…classic
Illuminated grille surround
Radar detector in grille (5 series)
New running lights from the X5/6 and new 4 series
A very aggressive face for sure
20 in wheels with the M logos
Red or blue brakes
1999 honda accord style door handles
Profile is pretty clean
Rear design is more extreme
WILD rear wing
Taillights feel almost angel eyes
Center roundel is trunk release
Quad tips…not a full M car
M logo before 35i is way bigger (saw that in 5)
Size
BIG changes for this year…and i do mean big
7.6 in longer than last year
2 in longer than X1
2.5 in taller than last year
1 in wider than last year
Trunk
25.3 cuft
Actually pretty big - same as X1
Underfloor storage
51 cuft with seats down
X1 does 57 (due to roof)
Rear seats
In the X1 I was actually pretty comfy
This may be 2 in longer but not exactly roomy
Headroom is an issue
amenities*
Pano roof
Got it - doesnt open
Front seats
Heated and cooled?
Heated steering wheel
Memory seats
Seat design for M pro package is SICC
Blue stitshc, perforation, logo light
Interior design
VERY X1 feeling, which is good
Bowers and Wilkins cool speaker covers
Ambient light everywhere
Newer M sport steeringwheel is cool
Alcantara dash option
iX style center console
Not a lot of covered storage
Open underneath
Tech
HUD option?
10.25 in cluster - loads of customizability
10.7 in center screen
iDrive 9
Climate controls are updated
Wireless acp
Adaptive content
Wireless charger
My FAVORITE thing
Lights, seatbelts, etc
Price
Base car starts at 42,600
M35i starts 51,600 - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Special thanks to our Patreons for their support of the channel! X2 or GLA?
Ordered X2
I have to say this thing is cool and actually sounds good
We just order one i can't wait🎉
So, it does come with a HUD. This one looks like a base M35i without the bells and whistles.
Bring back your English cousin - love to see him do some more reviews!
Oh and FYI the wireless charger will not keep up with battery drain if using android auto. So i recommend the cable for long road trips.
good note
The new Mini Countryman JCW is actually the best to drive to me in this configuration. Would love to hear your thoughts Matt.
Love the car. Soon compare the x2 m35i to the x1 m35i in Brooklyn grey.
X2
Uff the design of the car hurt my eyes, and normally I like beamers.
Wait til you see it in real life
@@Konrad-cj8fr it´s maybe better or not?
@@alengreen589 i think it looks really good. Ordered the x2 m35i. Check out for yourself
How come they told us m35 i doesn't come with from grill lights
Mine came with them.
@@DerLangolier is an m35?
@@jtalonrider4769 yes

Thought you had 700 videos on your TH-cam channel. Can you explain why you deleted some of your videos?
Yes, deleted the studio news videos. Only in-person reviews now 👍
Speakers are not bowers… 🤦♂️
He doesn't care.
@@planetfabulous5833 leave burningmeteor alone
Ever heard of fortnite
Nah, I'll keep my 2020 M340iX.
cool car dude
Overpriced FWD garbage
it’s AWD ?
@@TimurGenc Transverse mounted engine = FWD
@@ShowMeWhatINeedToKnow it’s common that a transverse engine is associated with fwd but that doesn’t determine the drivetrain configuration. it uses a hydraulic control system to distribute torque to the rear wheels which makes it an awd vehicle 🤷🏽♂️
@@TimurGenc - You're trying to be coy by splitting hairs. Transverse engine is a FWD based layout, JUST LIKE HE SAID IN THE REVIEW. The Mini platform this is based on is FWD - they simply added AWD for the BMW variant - again, just like he said in the review. If you disconnect the transfer case it's FWD. And with a longitudinal engine lay out, if you disconnect the transfer case the vehicle is RWD. FWD and RWD dynamics are also different. If you've driven a FWD-based BMW you can certainly tell.
@@ShowMeWhatINeedToKnow Your point literally doesn’t make no sense. As YOU said if you DISCONNECT the transfer every vehicle becomes a FWD or RWD. Do you call a m3 xdrive RWD just because it has a longitudinal engine. it’s called xdrive and it is AWD and while you certainly notice the front-heavy understeer bias ( i actually drove this car) it is still AWD
