Pros Powerful engines Agile handling Standard all-wheel drive User-friendly infotainment system
Cons Small rear seats Poor cargo capacity
The 2018 BMW X4 xDrive28i is already a potent little performer and will satisfy the majority of drivers. Almost all of the features from the range-topping M40i are available as options, so you won't be missing much other than the overabundance of power.
PROS Powerful yet efficient engine choices Interior quality well represents the luxury class Ride quality is smooth yet handling is sporty
CONS Rearward visibility is compromised Cargo capacity is much smaller than rivals Limited rear-seat space
The 2018 BMW X4 takes today’s trend toward swoopier SUVs and packages it with a roundel up front. It’s entertaining and a looker, but not all that practical.
Pros Compelling shape Exciting performance from M40i Well-equipped at base trim level Excellent 8-speed automatic
Cons Pricey at more than $48,000 to start $2,000 for CarPlay? Really? Rear seat head room is compromised Cargo area is oddly shaped
BMW has made a number of features standard across the X1 lineup this year, including driver-assistance features such as forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, parking sensors, and automatic high-beam headlamps. Navigation with real-time traffic updates is also now included, as is Apple CarPlay, but for some reason BMW requires an annual fee for that normally free feature after the first year.
Pros Sweetheart engine and transmission, athletic chassis, capacious cargo hold.
