Car articles about BMW Touring 2000 by year
At the end of the 1950s and beginning of the 1960s, the future of Bayerische Motoren-Werke looked anything but rosy. The product range included small models such as the Isetta, the 600 and the 700, as well as the elegant "Baroque Angel" and the two sports cars 503 and 507. There was a yawning void between these two extremes, resulting in figures deep in the red. The launch of the "New Class" in between therefore decided the survival or decline of the brand. This vehicle report tells the story of the "Neue Klasse" and shows it in old and new images.

BMW 2000 - quite angular
From 1966 to 1972, BMW built the 2000, the largest-displacement version of the "New Class", which had begun in 1962 with the BMW 1500. Characteristic of the BMW 2000 was the new face with rectangular headlights, less obvious was the refined technology compared to the "smaller" models. This report describes the sedan trimmed for luxury and shows it in many current and historical illustrations.
The first Golf GTI is considered the founder and prime example of the hot hatch category, while the BMW 1802 touring was created in times of cost-cutting pressure and also sold poorly. The former still delights countless fans today, while most car connoisseurs hardly remember the latter. Despite the clear signs, anyone who thinks that this comparison is a pure show trial is mistaken...
The era of sporty saloons began with the BMW 2002. Opel launched its first attacks on the Munich-based domain with its Ascona 19 SR, followed belatedly by Ford with the Escort RS 2000. Audi was the last to push for a place in the 100 hp society with the 80 GT. In 1973 a comparison test checked whether the newcomer from Ingolstadt could catch up with or even overtake its earlier competitors.
