Curvaceous without sacrificing too much in the way of practicality, its long hood, swooping roofline, and bold side creases have a faintly nautical look to them, like a yacht sailing at speed through ocean waves.

Here the country-house order of the original persists, albeit with interruptions – early operating theatres, for example, glazed like conservatories to allow maximum daylight, poke through the roofline.

That fast roofline and chunky shapes extract a toll from interior comfort.

The new roofline costs a few millimeters of second-row headroom and a bit of cargo capacity for bulky items, but is also more aerodynamically efficient.

Believe it or not the body’s just as long and as wide as the Panamera sedan, but with a somewhat taller and more pronounced roofline to accommodate a larger hatchback area.

The roofline of the BMW X2 has an almost coupe-like lightness, which gives the whole car the impression of surging forward like an athlete.
