While it’s perfectly suitable for use as a daily commuter car, the 2024 BMW M2 is that much more exciting to drive in an environment that will allow it to use its full potential. Equipped with numerous performance-oriented features, the M2 is a great choice for racing enthusiasts. It comes standard with 20-inch rear wheels, an active M Sport differential, adaptive suspension, and special M Sport brakes, on top of cool and handy racing features, including a lap timer, a track drive mode, and an M Drift Analyzer. 

3. Refined, luxury interior 

Aside from what’s under its hood, the 2024 BMW M2 has a lot to offer inside the cabin, too. It comes standard with genuine leather upholstery for both the front and the back seats, as well as heated front sports seats. Features such as multicolor ambient interior lighting, a panoramic roof, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror only add to the overall sense of luxury you will undoubtedly get as soon as you get inside the 2024 BMW M2. 

4. Plenty of standard tech features 

As far as technology is concerned, the 2024 BMW M2 has pretty much all that’s needed for passengers to stay connected and entertained during each ride. It’s fitted with a 14.9-inch touchscreen that you can use to access BMW’s iDrive 8 infotainment system that offers Apple CarPlay^® and Android Auto^™ integration. Right next to it is a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, with other standard tech features including dual-zone automatic climate control, satellite radio, Bluetooth^® connectivity, navigation, and a Harman Kardon^® stereo system. 

5. Driver-assistance systems 

Quite a few driver-assistance systems are also part of the standard equipment on the 2024 BMW M2. For starters, there are the forward-collision warning and the forward automatic emergency braking systems, to go along with pedestrian and cyclist detection. Furthermore, the M2 comes with lane-departure warning and lane-keep assist, as well as blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert. Finally, you also get front and rear parking sensors, making it easier to get in and out of narrow parking spaces.
