2 TRIMS ABOUT THE BMW 2 SERIES
BMW 2 Series at a glance
The BMW 2 Series Coupe is the compact rear-wheel-drive entry point to the brand's traditional coupe lineup. For 2026, the regular 230i uses a 255-hp 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and an eight-speed automatic, with rear-wheel drive reaching 60 mph in 5.5 seconds and xDrive reducing that figure to 5.3 seconds. The front-wheel-drive-based 2 Series Gran Coupe uses a different platform, while the six-cylinder M240i is maintained as a separate Cariary performance profile.
