Does the BMW X2 not have cruise control?
4 Answers
The BMW X2 is equipped with cruise control, and the cruise control buttons are located on the left side of the multifunction steering wheel. Control adjustments: When the vehicle reaches a certain speed, press the button in the upper right corner to activate cruise control; the LIM button is the speed limit switch, which can set the maximum cruising speed; the middle roller can be used to adjust the vehicle speed. Function of cruise control: It is mainly used to control the vehicle's constant speed driving. After cruise control is activated, the vehicle will drive at the speed set by the driver, automatically maintaining the speed without the need to press the accelerator pedal, allowing the vehicle to travel at a fixed speed; in addition, speed adjustment, function pause, or cancellation can be achieved by adjusting the control switch.
Whether the BMW X2 has cruise control depends on the specific trim and year. I've driven a friend's BMW X2, which was the high-end version and came with cruise control, but I know some entry-level models like the 2018 base model might not have this feature. When buying a car, you need to check the optional packages, such as whether the driving assistance package was added. Cruise control is quite practical on highways, as it automatically maintains speed, saving fuel and reducing stress. If you can't find the button, it's usually located on the left side of the steering wheel or in the instrument panel settings—try driving on the highway to test it. I recommend checking the vehicle manual or entering the VIN code on BMW's official website to confirm the configuration. If it's missing, you might consider installing it afterward, but be sure to go to a professional shop to avoid electrical issues—safety first. BMW has been promoting smart driving features in recent years, with adaptive cruise control being more advanced, but there aren't many options available for the X2.
The configuration of the BMW X2 depends on the specific model. After checking different year models, I found that entry-level versions like the base 2020 model may lack cruise control, but it's generally included in mid-to-high trim levels or optional packages. Whether you're buying used or new, first ask the seller or look for the cruise control switch position in the vehicle settings. I recall it's usually located on the left side of the steering wheel or controlled via the central display menu. If it's missing, it might be due to cost-cutting measures. In this case, you could try manual speed control or contact a BMW dealership to install the original equipment, which is affordable and effective. Don't worry, BMW's reliability is good, and regular maintenance can prevent minor issues. By the way, cruise control isn't used much in congested cities but is really convenient for long highway drives. It's best to test-drive before purchasing to verify the functionality.
Whether the BMW X2 comes with cruise control depends on the version. I know that base models like the 2019 entry-level trim may not have it, but higher trims or more recent model years usually do. Check the optional equipment list or VIN number when purchasing to avoid disappointment. The absence of cruise control can affect long-distance comfort, but its impact is minimal for city driving. It's advisable to consult a professional dealership.
