Chronology
PredecessorBMW 2 Series (F22/F23)

The BMW 2 Series (G42) is the second generation of the BMW 2 Series subcompact executive coupé, the successor in 2021 to the F22 2 Series coupé and convertible. The G42 is the first BMW vehicle designed by BMW of Mexico, and is produced in BMW's plant in San Luis Potosí, Mexico since 2 September 2021.[3]

Development and launch

2022 BMW M240i

Remaining a rear-wheel-drive-based model, the G42 is built on the CLAR platform with a roughly 50:50 weight distribution and shares many mechanical components and engine options with the G20 3 Series and G22 4 Series. Unlike its predecessor, the base second-generation 2 Series and M240i coupé is no longer available with a manual transmission and not complemented with a convertible body style.[4][5][6] The launch models consist of the mild hybrid diesel engine 220d, the petrol engine 220i and 230i and the M240i xDrive.[citation needed]

Equipment

Interior (2021-2022)

Standard equipment in the US market includes Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, 10 speaker stereo, adaptive cruise control, tyre pressure monitor and Active Driving Assistant.[7] What Car? found that the rotary controller for the satellite navigation was less distracting to use than the touchscreen.[8] Top Gear magazine felt that the coupé's physical buttons were more user friendly than the touchscreen interfaces in other BMW models.[9]

M Performance Parts

218-230 with the M Sport trim and M240 models can be fitted with M Performance Parts. These include a carbon fibre front splitter, side skirts and spoiler, M rims, a sport steering wheel and a door projector.[citation needed]
