2027 BMW X2 Trims
2027 BMW X2 Trims Compared in Northern California
Two 2027 BMW X2 trims, xDrive28i and M35i, both with standard xDrive all-wheel drive: compare power, wheels and starting price side by side.
The 2027 BMW X2 lineup is a clean two-trim choice: the xDrive28i at $44,700 and the M35i at $53,900, both excluding BMW's $1,350 destination charge. Every X2 comes with standard xDrive all-wheel drive, so the decision between trims comes down to power, chassis hardware and how sporty you want the cabin to feel. Shoppers across Solano County and the North Bay most often pick the xDrive28i for the I-80 commute and the M35i for weekend drives up Highway 29 into Napa Valley.
BMW of Napa Valley stocks both 2027 X2 trims, ready to test drive and compare side by side, so you can feel the $9,200 step-up to the M35i for yourself before choosing. For the full model overview, see our 2027 X2 overview.

Common X2 Trim Comparisons
X2 xDrive28i vs. X2 M35i
The core difference is 71 horsepower and a full second off the 0-60 time (6.2 seconds versus 5.2), for $9,200. That money also buys Adaptive M Suspension, an M Sport braking system, standard 20-inch wheels instead of 19-inch, and M-specific styling inside and out. Buyers who mainly want the X2's coupe-SUV shape, standard xDrive and BMW's tech suite at the lowest entry price choose the xDrive28i. Buyers who want the X2 to feel and sound like a performance car, not just look like one, choose the M35i.
