BMW has dubbed the all-new iX2 as a premium compact Sports Activity Coupe (SAC). Along with its internal combustion engine-powered sibling the second generation X2, it comes with an optional illuminated kidney grille, just like on the larger X6, while LED headlights are offered as standard. Being an EV, the iX2 has traded in the conventional radiator grille in favour of a closed panel.
