BMW 2-Series Active Tourer Spied
Despite the initial rumors of dropping the nameplate, BMW is getting ready to unveil the new generation 2-Series Active Tourer. The German MPV was spied during its final stages of development at the Nürburgring, before its official premiere before the end of 2021, possibly at the IAA Mobility in Munich.
When it goes on sale in 2022, the BMW X7 Facelift will feature one of the most extensive visual facelifts we've seen in recent memory. We believe this is a strategic move by the BMW design team to prepare us for the next generation of luxury vehicles which will be previewed by the upcoming BMW 7 Series.

Adding to that is the surprisingly good BMW 128ti proving that the Bavarians actually know how to make a good hot hatch.
