Description
The BMW 2002 Turbo, launched in 1973, is an iconic model that has left its mark on the history of sports cars. The first European production car to feature turbocharging, it embodies performance in its purest form. Developed from the 2002 tii, it was distinguished by its supercharged 2. 0-litre 4-cylinder engine developing 170 bhp. Weighing just 1, 080 kg, it offered impressive performance for its time: 0 to 100 km/ h was achieved in less than 7 seconds. Its top speed was 210 km/ h. Equipped with a 4-speed manual gearbox, reinforced brakes and a sharpened chassis, the car's aggressive design was distinguished by fender flares, a front spoiler and special wheels. An emblematic feature was the "2002 turbo" lettering in mirror image on the front spoiler, intended to be read in the rear-view mirrors of outdated cars. Production was short-lived, with around 1, 672 examples made. As a result of the oil crisis, the BMW 2002 Turbo remained a rarity. Today, it is sought after by collectors for its raw character and historical significance, symbolising BMW's entry into the world of high-performance cars.
