BMW offers xDrive on 2015 2 Series

Fri, 06 Jun 2014

BMW has released its mile-long list of model changes for 2015. It's mostly comprised of tiny tweaks to options packages, pricing or trim colors, but there are a few interesting new features in there too. One thing all buyers will notice is that as of July 1, the company's destination charge increases by $25, to $950 for all of its models.

The 2 Series gets two really useful upgrades for 2015. We already knew that BMW's xDrive all-wheel drive system would be offered on the M235i this summer. However, it won't be the only 2 capable of spinning all four wheels. The 228i model will also be available with the system for $34,850 (after destination), $1,800 more than the standard model.

The other big addition brings a sportier ride to the 228i (with or without xDrive) for those who don't want to spring for the M235i. BMW is adding a Track Handling Package (pictured above) that lowers the suspension 10mm and includes the Adaptive M Suspension, Variable Sport Steering, M Sport Brakes and 18-inch wheels with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. It's available on manual or automatic models at $1,600 for cars ordered with the M Sport or Sport Line trims or $2,200 without it.

The X5 also sees a performance improvement. In October, the displacement of the N55 engine in the sDrive35i and xDrive35i gets bumped from 2.979 liters to 3.001 liters, and the eight-speed automatic is also upgraded. The changes shed about a tenth of a second off of the SUV's sprint to 60 miles per hour.

There are a few other more minor adjustments sprinkled among the rest of the lineup. For instance, all 5 Series models now get standard LED foglights. One change that might not make enthusiasts happy is that the Z4 sDrive35i is no longer available with a manual transmission; the seven-speed dual clutch is the only gearbox available for the model. Scroll down to read the official release below and check out the myriad changes.
