CONCLUSION

In the Bavarianconcern, the situation was highly appreciated, because the new BMW B2 X2 2018(photo) model has no direct competitors at the moment. Crossovers with abody-shaped body are present in the older classes, so the niche of compactmodels is in dire need of cars of similar style. The Bavarian novelty isintended to draw the attention of people who have not previously considered theclass of junior crossover in view of their lack of sportiness and the abilityto delight in active riding. The creators of the new BMW X2 2018 year tried tobring the chassis as much as possible to the car’s peculiarities typical of theBMW models with bodywork, sedan, coupe and estate. Bavarian engineers can beproud of the new X2 model, as sportsmanship is now noticed in the cabin, notjust about the front-mounted console’s driver, but also about a lower landing forbetter car control in turns.
