Detailed analysis of the BMW 218i Active Tourer Aut. · 136 CV (2015-2018)
General description
The 2014 BMW 2 Series Active Tourer represented a true revolution for the Bavarian brand. It was the first minivan in its history and, even more daringly, its first front-wheel-drive model. A car that set aside sporting purism to embrace the needs of the modern family with unexpected warmth, offering space and versatility without sacrificing the premium BMW seal.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the 218i is surprising. Its three-cylinder, 136 hp engine vibrates with a contained and refined energy, moving the car with an ease that is captivating in daily use. It's not a sports car, but the steering is precise and the chassis feels agile, conveying a confidence and driving pleasure that many rivals can only dream of. The automatic gearbox manages power smoothly, creating a serene and comfortable travel experience, a haven of calm in the daily hustle.
Design and aesthetics
Its design is a statement of intent: function shapes beauty. The minivan proportions maximize interior space, but the front kidney grilles and tense lines scream 'BMW'. Inside, the heart of the car beats strongly. The quality of the materials is exceptional, the space is generous, and the modularity of the rear seats is a gift for any family. The high driving position makes you feel like the king of the road, with absolute visibility and a sense of control.
Technology and features
Despite its age, the onboard technology feels current and user-focused. The iDrive infotainment system, with its rotary controller, remains an example of ergonomics and ease of use. The high-resolution central screen and the driving assistants available at the time placed it at the forefront of its segment, proving that a practical car does not have to give up innovation.
Competition
In the exclusive club of premium minivans, its most direct and natural rival has always been the Mercedes-Benz B-Class, with which it shared a battle for the throne of versatility with a star. However, it also kept an eye on very competent mainstream models like the Volkswagen Touran or the Ford C-MAX, against which the BMW offered an aura of superior quality and driving dynamics.
Conclusion
The 2 Series Active Tourer is not a BMW for purists; it's a BMW for real life. It is proof that you can create an eminently practical, spacious, and family-oriented car without losing the soul and quality that define the brand. It was a risky bet that won hearts and garages, proving that true sportiness sometimes consists of carrying your family with safety, comfort, and a smile on your face.
