We have stumbled across the pricing for the forthcomingBMW2-Series Active Tourer scheduled to launch in SA towards the end of January 2015.

Trim options

Although styling won’t please everybody, the Sport Line package adds high-gloss black accents, special air intakes and exclusive 16- or 17-inch alloy wheels. There’s also sport seats, high-gloss black trim and contrast stitching.

The Luxury Line features high-gloss chrome grille and special 16- or 17-inch alloy wheels, as well as a leather-wrapped sport steering wheel, special seat upholstery and chrome accents.

For a sportier look, the M Sport package adds an aerodynamic body kit, a high-gloss black grille, a sport-tuned suspension (which reduces the ride height by 10mm) and 17- or 18-inch light alloy wheels. It also includes an M leather steering wheel, specially upholstered sports seats, an anthracite roof liner and M-branded door sill plates.

The 2-Series Active Tourer will be available in four models (218i, 220i, 220d and 225i) and three engine options.

These will include the entry-level 218i with a 1.5-litre three-cylinder petrol engine that delivers 100 kW and 220 Nm of torque – 230 Nm with overboost. The 225i is equipped with a 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine that produces 170 kW and 350 Nm of torque.
