2014 BMW 228 Overview
What's New for 2014
The 2 Series is a brand new addition to the BMW roster.
Choosing Your BMW 228i
The 228i carries a turbocharged 2-liter four-cylinder that delivers 240 horsepower, and BMW's xDrive all-wheel drive system is available. An eight-speed automatic is standard, but you can opt for a no-cost six speed manual on rear-drive models. Standard equipment is what you would expect in an entry-level luxury coupe: automatic dual-zone climate control, rain-sensing wipers, Bluetooth phone and 10-speaker sound system. Power leather seats are a standalone option.
BMW offer a variety of packages to enhance luxury and performance:
- Premium: Adds common luxury car equipment like keyless access and ignition, power leather seats, a sunroof and satellite radio.
- Sport Line: Includes the Premium contents, along with special interior trim, 19-inch wheels and a sport-tuned suspension.
- M Sport: Provides sportier looks and performance courtesy of summer performance tires, sport seats, a sport steering wheel, a rear spoiler and (optional) upgraded steering, brakes and suspension system.
- Technology: Gets you navigation system, upgraded dash displays and controls, and a suite of smartphone apps.
- Driver Assistance: Adds parking sensors and a rearview camera.
- Driver Assistance Plus: Comes with lane departure warning and forward collision mitigation (requires Driver Assistance and Technology packages).
- Cold Weather: Adds headlight washers, heated front seats and a heated steering wheel.
CarsDirect Tip
We consider the Premium Package mandatory for buyers who want the full luxury car experience. If your priority is performance, the M Sport and its optional upgrades make the most sense. The Sport Line splits the difference, providing an appealing blend of comfort and sportiness that feels about right for this class of car.
