What is the emission standard of the BMW 2 Series?
2 Answers
BMW 2 Series meets the China VI emission standard. Currently, all BMW 2 Series models available on the market are the 2019 version, fully compliant with the China VI vehicle emission standard. The BMW 2 Series is a 2-door, 4-seater sports car produced by BMW, available in both coupe and convertible versions. The entire BMW 2 Series lineup is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, featuring rear-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic transmission. The dimensions of the BMW 2 Series are 4454mm in length, 1774mm in width, and 1408mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2690mm. The BMW 2 Series boasts a new multifunctional steering wheel and a center console design that better meets ergonomic needs. It also comes equipped with a 6.5-inch (optional 8.8-inch) iDrive system, collision warning system, built-in 3G network support, automatic speed limit detection, and other features.
I've driven several BMW cars, and the 2 Series is my favorite daily driver. The emission issue depends on the specific model year. Early 2014-2017 2 Series models mostly meet China 5 standards, while newer models post-2020 comply with China 6b, which are more environmentally friendly. When choosing a car, pay special attention - if buying used or older models, they might be restricted from entering core areas in cities with license plate restrictions like Shanghai or Shenzhen, affecting convenience. I recommend checking the vehicle's environmental label or BMW's official website for specific emission data. From my experience with several annual inspections, China 6 compliant vehicles pass more easily, and their cleaner emission systems can also save fuel. In short, emission standards impact daily use and policy compliance, so do thorough research before purchasing.
