Product Overview

BMW 2 Series Active Tourer U06 is a subcompact minivan in production from 2021. It is available with a range of inline-3 and inline-4 engines that displaced 1.5 to 2.0 liters.
Compared to the F45 Active Tourer that preceded it, the U06 introduced uglier styling but little in terms of mechanical changes.
BMW has made a good effort in aerodynamics, with a decent 0.26 coefficient of drag to show for it.

Reviewers from autoexpress have found the following***:
BMW 2 Series Active Tourer is based on a stretched version of the MINI platform and is front-wheel drive. It's only got space for five passengers, so if you want to carry more you'll need to look at the larger Gran Tourer version. Up front, numerous storage bins and a handy armrest that doubles up as storage to charge your phone are nice touches. There's also a huge amount of adjustment in the driving position so a driver of any size can get comfortable behind the wheel.
