The 2024 BMW 2 Series Active Tourer is a petrol van with FWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the U06 generation. The 218i is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured 218i version develops 136 hp and 230 Nm (170 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 9.5 seconds, which is measured, with performance geared more toward normal driving than acceleration. Top speed is listed at 207 km/h (129 mph). Its power output is about 43% below the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 11% slower than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Fuel economy and range
The listed fuel consumption is 6.5 L/100km. Fuel-tank capacity is 42.0 litres (11.1 US gallons). Recorded CO2 emissions are 148 g/km. Consumption, emissions and range can be measured under different regional procedures, so like-for-like comparisons should use the same market and test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 4,386 mm (172.7 in) in length, 1,824 mm (71.8 in) in width, and 1,576 mm (62.0 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,670 mm (105.1 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 470 litres (16.6 cu ft), expanding to 1,455 litres (51.4 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 1,470 kg (3,241 lb). The recorded braked towing capacity is 1,200 kg (2,646 lb). That cargo volume is about 88% below the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
The model range
The recorded line-up consists of 218i, 223i xDrive, and 225e xDrive. Across the range, the specifications span 136 hp to 245 hp, 6.7 s to 9.5 s, and 90 km, while listed starting prices run from $38,900-$49,900. Drivetrain, battery or engine choice, wheels and market equipment can all change the final figures, so the version table should be used when choosing between them.
In perspective
Compared with nearby petrol van models from the same period, the 2024 BMW 2 Series Active Tourer is strongest on price, while cargo capacity and power stand out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
