A featherweight classic with a fuel-injected heart

Drive a 2002tii

The 2002tii is a light, 2,300-lb classic with a fuel-injected four-cylinder, built 1971–1975. Among the BMW rental options on Turo, this one puts you in a 1970s driver's seat — compact, eager, and wonderfully mechanical.

On Turo, you book the exact 2002tii you see from a local vehicle owner and arrange pickup that fits your plans. It's a natural pick for a weekend drive, a photo shoot, or a special occasion.

2002tii specs

Horsepower

130 hp

Weight

~2,300 lbs

Acceleration

0-60 mph in 9.5 sec

Top speed

118 mph

Kugelfischer fuel-injected power

The 2002tii makes 130 hp from a 1,990 cc inline four-cylinder fed by mechanical Kugelfischer fuel injection — that's the "i" in tii. In a car that weighs about 2,300 lbs, that output brings an eager feel and a 118 mph top speed. The 130 hp figure is the factory rating, and US cars carried a lower SAE net rating.

Sharper chassis and handling

The 2002tii rides on a beefier suspension than the standard 2002, with bigger front brakes and wider wheels and tires. Those upgrades matter on a car this light, since there's only about 2,300 lbs for the chassis to manage through each corner.

Rear-wheel drive completes the formula, with the engine up front and the power going to the back. You steer, the car turns in, and the balance between front and rear keeps it composed through a bend. On a winding back road, that balance is the reason you booked a 2002tii in the first place.

An analog drive with a four-speed manual

Driving a 2002tii means working a four-speed manual and reading the road yourself, with no driver-assist tech stepping in. Every shift, brake, and steering correction comes from you, and the car answers with a direct connection to the road.

That's the draw — it asks more of you and gives more back. Where newer cars smooth things over, a 50-year-old classic hands every detail to you. You'll hear the engine, feel the road through the wheel, and remember the drive long after the trip ends.

Stand out with a 2002tii

A 2002tii brings vintage character to a car event, a photo shoot, a special occasion, or a scenic weekend. Its boxy profile and round headlights do the talking wherever you park. When you want to compare eras and styles, browse more classic car rental options on Turo.

A piece of 02 Series heritage

Three things set the 2002tii apart: its 02 Series heritage, its collectibility, and its design and US-market details.

The 2002tii came off the line between April 1971 and October 1975 as part of the 02 Series. It was the fuel-injected version of the 2002, and its mechanical Kugelfischer injection and upgraded chassis set it apart from the standard car.

Renting one puts you behind the wheel of a car from that original production window, now more than 50 years old. Its reputation as a benchmark compact sports sedan keeps that history front and center. For you, that means a drive with a story behind it — one worth sharing at every stop.

Collectibility

Production totaled about 38,703 cars, though the factory cites "almost 40,000." Half a century later, relatively few remain, so each one makes for a rare sight on the road.

That scarcity, plus the fuel-injected engine and upgraded chassis, has earned the 2002tii lasting standing among collectors and enthusiasts. When you rent one on Turo, you get time behind the wheel of a sought-after classic without the commitment of owning it. It's a firsthand way to learn why enthusiasts hold this model in such high regard.

Design and US-market details

The 2002tii wears a compact two-door sedan profile with a low stance, slim pillars, and a boxy greenhouse. Up front, round single headlights flank the twin-kidney grille for a clean, period-correct face.

US-market cars from 1974 on carry the larger "diving board" bumpers that US regulations required. They're a defining detail of the 1974–75 cars, and they give the US 2002tii a look all its own. If you love period-correct details, those bumpers make the car's era and market easy to spot in every photo.

  1. * Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
