The Active Tourer attracted non-BMW drivers, it is an untypical BMW in many aspects. This car puts the driver better in the focus than other model: Just care for what a driver and passengers want to have to feel good.

I still think MPVs are a better family solution for many than the style over substance Crossover which is now more fashionable. BMW are to be congratulated on being brave enough to produce a Mk 2 model. Personally I would like to have seen a full EV option as this would have been a closer successor to the i3 than the iX1 which is a much bigger and more expensive car. The 2 series Tourer seems to completely slip under the radar which is a pity as I think is as actually a rather good car.

I enjoyed watching the Video Review. The Best MPV on the road with some great styling

Mainland Europe loves 40:20:40 because of skis… you just jump in a car Friday night and drive to the mountains. Skis in the middle, couple of friends and jobs done. Japanese cars are 60:40 and ppl hates it.

Just a note, a ski hole is useless these days. Skis are so wide, as are snow boards of course, so with 40 20 40 split you can actually carry some... And 4 people. BMW are from Bavaria, where BMW owners do actually often go skiing... Even some of those looking at this car...i.e. the over 50s

The cars systems are voice activated so not always necessary to touch the screen.

Great video. What electric range does the 230e do.

manufacturers: ads 40-60 seats to car
reviewers: I wish the seats were 40-20-40 for flexibility
manufacturer: ads 40-20-40 seats to car
reviewers: I wish the seats were 40-60.

actual owners of the cars: am I nothing to you?

Where is it hidden? I see it everywhere

The only problem with all these reviews is that person reviewing the car is, pardon my bluntness, short. They all say it's spacious and loads of room, but please, but inside 2 persons of at elast 190cm, and then let's see it, ok?

[pericofantasias]

Why didn’t you just press the buttons in the boot that make the rear seats fold automatically?🤷🏻‍♂️

[-DC-]

Previous gen Ford Kuga with a BMW badge glued on.

[johntrinick]

Why do you all think the absence of buttons is a good design? It's not practical and putting all functions through touch screen is dangerous, cheap and lazy! This new interior is a huge step backwards from the older model.

[rob]

I know just how time consuming and dam right inconvenient it can be to walk round the other side of the car to drop the seat down? lol

[DarkoKrznaric-nwmr]

there are no buttons for climate control...i can't understand that...

[MM-wtoo]

Biggest problem … it’s 5 seater. Most mpv users want 7 seater

[gorindolea]

which has more legroom in the back ? this one or an european sportage
