A first render image with the future BMW 2-Series Family Tourer has just emerged on the web, giving us a look on how the future family car will look like.

With the 2-Series Active Tourer being launched at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show this March, the German automaker is now planning to introduce a new sibling, the 2-Series Family Tourer.

We are talking here about a stretched version of the present Active Tourer, meaning that the model will come with an additional of two seats, reducing thus the rear passengers` space.

The BMW 2-Series Family Tourer will also come with longer rear doors, which would facilitate the access to the third row of seats, specially designed for children.

Under the hood, we should expect 1.5-liter three-cylinder turbocharged unit, with 136 horsepower and 220 Nm of torque, in the 228i version.

The 225i version will get the 2.0-liter and four-cylinder, developing 231 horsepower and 350 Nm of torque, while the 281d will receive the 2.0-liter turbo diesel, with 150 horses and 330 Nm of torque.

The BMW 2-Series Family Tourer is expected to make public debut at the 2014 Paris Motor Show, this October, with sales to begin next year.
