BMW is testing an updated version of its iX2 electric SUV, with multiple outlets reporting camouflaged prototype sightings in Germany. The changes are primarily visual, with the facelift bringing BMW’s Neue Klasse design language to the small electric crossover.

Carscoops and BMW Blog both point to a sleeker front end compared with the current iX2. BMW Blog specifically describes the prototype as wearing slimmer headlights and a reworked nose consistent with Neue Klasse styling, while noting the vehicle is a facelift version and referring to the U10 generation. Carscoops similarly says BMW does not appear to make major alterations to the iX2’s overall design proportions, but it does reflect the brand’s newest face.

Where the coverage differs, it is in emphasis: Carscoops foregrounds the “Neue Klasse treatment” and the contrast versus the existing “chunky” look, while BMW Blog leads with the specific spy-photo details of the prototype’s lighting and front-end changes.
