Like the regular X4, the high-performance X4 M receives some subtle styling upgrades for 2022. Larger grille openings, narrower headlamps, and reworked front and rear bumpers distinguish the refreshed X4 M from last year's model. The infotainment display has grown from 10.3 to 12.3 inches. More meaningful to us driving enthusiasts is a rework of the SUV's engine to produce more torque; horsepower remains the same across both X4 M models.
Pros Rip-snorting engine, bonkers acceleration, handling agile enough to trick you into thinking it's a sports car.
Cons Hard-edged ride, lacks the practicality of the mechanically-similar X3 M, coupe-like styling may not be for everyone.
