Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2021 BMW X4 is a crossover worth coveting, though our money would be on the more practical, cheaper, and really not much different X3.

Pros
Willing turbocharged engines
Balanced handling
Excellent interior tech
Lots of available safety gear
M versions especially fun

Cons
Mega price tag
So-so cargo space
So-so rear-seat human space
Style not for everyone

By: 
thecarconnection.com

Newly standard equipment includes SiriusXM satellite radio, Android Auto compatibility, and several driver-assistance features. There are also some changes to the various option packages.The M40i’s turbocharged inline-six is impressive, but the 30i’s turbo four-cylinder provides plenty of power.

Pros
Entertaining to drive,
two powerful engine choices,
design-forward exterior.

Cons
Costs more than the X3,
less cargo space than X3,
tighter on rear-seat room than X3.

By: 
caranddriver.com

No significant changes for 2021.

Pros
Both available engines are smooth, powerful and fuel-efficient
Easy personalization thanks to abundant standard and optional features
Impressive handling for an SUV

Cons
Sloping roofline compromises rear headroom and cargo space

By: 
edmunds.com

The 2020 BMW X4 M comes with all wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 8-speed shiftable automatic.New high-performance variant of the X4.Turbocharged six-cylinder offers up to 503 horsepower.Adaptive dampers, anti-roll bars and BMW's Active M Differential increase handling performance.

Pros
Tremendously powerful six-cylinder engine
Unique styling stands out from other compact crossovers

Cons
Rear headroom is a bit tight
The sloping roofline compromises cargo space
Android Auto is not available

By: 
edmunds.com

Underneath their fastback bodies, the X4 M and X4 M Competition are both packing serious muscle. These hot rods are coming to BMW dealerships this fall to take their place among the rest of the brand's performance SUVs, including the new X3 M, which arrives around the same time.

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
