According to Spain's Motor.es, BMW is seriously considering launching a convertible X2 but hasn't officially given it the green light. The German automaker reportedly conducted a study recently that found a significant number of buyers would consider a convertible X2. That resulted in a second, more-serious study that is said to still be going on. If the business case can be made at the end of the second study, expect BMW to sign off on the convertible X2.

BMW is also said to be considering a two-door fixed-roof version of the X2, but that's less likely than the convertible to head to production, according to Motor.es. Considering that Land Rover recently canceled the two-door Evoque, and Mini never found much success with the Paceman, that would make sense.

We can't say we love the idea of a convertible X2, but it might not look as awkward as the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet. The X2 is already about the same length as a BMW 2 Series and rides low enough to almost be confused with a hatchback. For all we know, the convertible X2 could end up looking like a slightly taller 2 Series.
