MUNICH: The new 2021 BMW X2 xDrive25e plug-in hybrid can achieve an all-electric range of up to 57km in the legal EU test cycle, and comes with a hybrid-specific, four-wheel drive system.

The lithium-ion battery can be fully recharged at a domestic power outlet takes five hours, with an 80% charge after 3.8 hours.

A 100% charge of an empty battery unit at a BMW i Wallbox takes 3.2 hours, with an 80% charge after 2.4 hours.

The Sports Activity Coupe's (SAC) synchronous electric motor transfers drive torque to the rear wheels, while a 1.5-litre combustion engine and 6-speed Steptronic transmission transfers power to the front wheels.

Thus, you get a hybrid-specific four-wheel drive system and total system output is 220hp and maximum torque of 385Nm.

The sprint from 0 to 100 km/h is done in 6.8 seconds, and top speed of the new BMW X2 xDrive25e is 195 km/h.

A stylish new front end without fog lights underscores the SAC’s sporty aura.

LED headlights with integrated bad weather light improve visibility in adverse weather conditions.

The bad weather light feature, which is integrated into the standard LED headlights, replaces the previous round fog lights.
