Intended to make the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer more aggressive and sporting, the German car maker has released the first images of the M Sport pack that will be made available for its first-ever compact MPV.
The luxury German car maker's first-ever front-wheel-drive production model and first model to be powered by a three-cylinder engine, the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer €" which debuted earlier this month at the 2014 Geneva motor show " is due to arrive locally mid fourth quarter.
Commenting on the likelihood of the M Sport pack reaching local buyers," BMW Australia corporate communications general manager Lenore Fletcher" told CarAdvice that while final specifications are yet to be finalised, €œ"you can rest assured we will be doing everything in our power to include it in our local line-up."€
Comprising a sharper M3/M4-inspired front bumper with new intakes and fog lights and a revised rear bumper with black insert and chrome-tipped exhaust pipes, the M Sport pack also includes side skirts, 17- and 18-inch wheels and 10mm lower M Sport suspension said to improve handling.
Estoril Blue paint, front quarter panel M badging, black window surrounds and roof rails, and a high-gloss black double kidney grille complete the M Sport-exclusive exterior alterations.
Inside, the pack adds an M-stamped leather multifunction steering wheel, footrest, gear lever and door sill finishers, an anthracite roof and blue contrast stitching. A tri-colour BMW M key is also presented to owners who select the sport pack.
To be offered locally powered by both petrol and diesel engines, the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer is tipped to start around $40,000. Once on Australian shores, the Active Tourer will directly tackle its key rival the Mercedes-Benz B-Class.
