What is the difference between a 2 Series and an X2 in terms of performance?

I am considering purchasing a BMW X2 and noticed that it is built on the same platform as the 2 Series. Can I expect similar performance from the X2 or are there noticeable differences?

Both the 2 Series and X2 are built on the same platform, but the X2 is slightly heavier due to its larger size. This may result in slightly lower performance numbers for the X2 compared to the 2 Series.

The X2 has a wider track and lower center of gravity than the 2 Series, which can actually improve handling and overall performance.

In terms of straight line performance, the 2 Series has a slight edge due to its smaller size and weight. However, the X2 offers a more practical and versatile option with its hatchback design.
