Detailed analysis of the BMW 220i Active Tourer Aut. · 192 CV (2014-2018)
General description
The 2014 BMW 2 Series Active Tourer was a bold statement of intent. For the first time, BMW ventured into the territory of minivans and front-wheel drive, breaking with its own tradition. The result is a vehicle that merges exceptional family practicality with the soul and prestige of the Bavarian brand, designed for those who need space but refuse to give up the pleasure of driving.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the 220i Active Tourer surprises and delights. Its 192 horsepower pushes with an unexpected energy for a family car, catapulting it from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.4 seconds. The engine delivers its power from very low revs, offering an immediate and forceful response. The 8-speed automatic gearbox is a delight for its smoothness and speed, while the agile and well-poised chassis instills a confidence that makes you forget you're driving a minivan. It's proof that a practical car can also be thrilling.
Design and aesthetics
Its design is a clever balance between function and form. The high silhouette and five doors scream versatility and space, with a generous 468-liter trunk. However, the unmistakably BMW details, such as the double-kidney grille, sharp headlights, and tension lines on the bodywork, give it a dynamism and presence that set it apart. Inside, the quality of the materials and the driver-oriented design create a premium and welcoming atmosphere, a sanctuary for family trips.
Technology and features
For its time, the 2 Series Active Tourer was at the forefront. The direct-injection engine with a turbo and Start-Stop system represented an excellent compromise between performance and efficiency, with a certified consumption of just 5.6 l/100km. The crown jewel was its 8-speed automatic transmission with a torque converter, a technology reserved for higher-end models that guaranteed superb ride comfort. The intuitive and comprehensive iDrive infotainment system centralized vehicle control, making every journey simpler and more connected.
Competition
In the premium compact minivan ring, its most direct and natural rival was always the Mercedes-Benz B-Class. Both offered a German vision of what a luxury family car should be, although the BMW always leaned towards offering an extra touch of dynamism and sporty sensations compared to a B-Class traditionally more focused on absolute comfort. Other models like the Volkswagen Golf Sportsvan competed in practicality, but not at the same level of prestige and finishes.
Conclusion
The BMW 220i Active Tourer is much more than just a minivan. It is BMW's answer to the needs of a modern family that doesn't want to compromise. It offers the space, versatility, and safety expected of a family car, but wraps it in a package of quality, technology, and, above all, driving pleasure. It was a risk for the brand, but the result is a well-rounded and deeply satisfying vehicle that proves you can have it all.
