BMW 2 Series Active Tourer F45 (2015) To improve For a start, the damping needs to be a bit more firm, I find body roll to be particularly bad in this one. Also, another thing, the engine really needs a boost. It is definitely lacking in power. The boot is above average, something like a CX-5 or a CRV which is bigger and cheaper would transport people across in more comfort.

For a start, to drive, the 2AT isn't particularly very nice. The 1.5 engine is smooth at idle and revs well, but the revs do not translate to propulsion, as the car feels very slow to pull away. Getting to highway speeds needs time too. This is where the more powerful Merc helps. In fact, I would say a Citroen C4 Picasso at the same price would be worth a look too.

The BMW 2 Series Active Tourer is a spacious five seat MPV that is a rival for cars like the Citroen C4 Picasso and Volkswagen Golf SV. You will have to work the engine fairly hard through the standard six speed gearbox if you want hearty acceleration, but generally it's just as adequate in everyday driving as the 218d.

Things you did not know about an MPV (Multi-purpose Vehicle). MPV is short for multi-purpose vehicle – a type of car generally favoured by families due to a more practical interior than a regular hatchback's, often coming in five- and seven-seat forms.

Smaller MPVs – sometimes based on superminis such as the Ford B-Max – come with five seats and a practical interior, while the Citroen C4 Picasso and Ford C-Max can also come in a seven-seat form (the Citroen Grand C4 Picasso and Ford Grand C-Max, for example).

Citroen C4 Picasso The LED DRLs are positioned above the headlamps, which flank a new, curvier chevron logo on the front grille. With quarter windows front and rear, plus a windscreen that extends far up the panoramic roof, there is a generous 5.3 square metres of glass area altogether, which no doubt contributes to the airiness of the cabin.

The LED rear lamps, inspired by Citroen's concept cars, create a futuristic 3D effect.

BMW 2 Series Active Tourer. That totals a 220bhp output because, and unlike the unusual front-wheel-only drive of the standard 2 Series Active Tourer, the eDrive goes all-wheel drive when both engines are running in its eBoost mode.

That makes it feel firmly stuck to the road, even with chicanes and corners. Depending on drive mode selected means the eDrive model can be front-wheel-only drive in Power mode, or rear-wheel-only drive in ePower mode, which makes for an unusual prospect with different handling to suit different driving situations.

BMW 2 Series Active Tourer Top Gear Review. Amazingly, it is. It's tall and the windscreen is miles ahead of you, bounded by huge pillars that block the view in tight bends. You can't see the bonnet of the stubby nose.

No powerslides, absolutely. But that doesn't mean it's not a BMW. Family van then. Any good at that? The rear room is decent for the class, but no better than that. The seats slide forward to make the boot bigger, and the backrests recline a little, and flop forward at the touch of a switch in the boot, and the boot itself has an underfloor bin.
