Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Wi-Fi hotspot now standard,no other significant changes for 2021.

Pros
Tremendously powerful six-cylinder engine
Grip and handling are excellent
Sleeker styling than the related X3 M

Cons
Excessively stiff ride
Rear headroom is a bit tight
Sloping roofline compromises cargo space and visibility

By: 
edmunds.com

Like several other BMWs, the X4 M gains Android Auto and SiriusXM satellite radio as standard features for the 2021 model year. Otherwise, the flashy fastback SUV remains unchanged.

Pros
Abundance of horsepower,
impressively quick acceleration,
deft handling.

Cons
Stiff suspension can be harsh over bumps,
not as practical as X3 M,
polarizing rear styling.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Balanced power delivery
Impressive grip and balance
Fun on tap in 4WD Sport setting
Transmission refinement

Cons
Punishing ride
Only subtly different next to regular X4
Not as pointed as a full-fledged M4

By: 
caradvice.com.au

Pros
Three compelling powertrain choices,
upscale cabin environs,
well-integrated infotainment tech.

Cons
Steering could feel sharper,
snug third-row seat,
top turbo-V-8 engine carries a big price tag.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Strong performance from available engines
Luxurious, comfortable cabin lives up to its price tag
Spacious interior and cargo area

Cons
Small mirrors and wide roof pillars create blind spots
Limited interior storage

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
Muscular engine lineup
Poised ride quality and handling
Airy, upscale interior
Many standard tech and safety features
