The X4 comes equipped as standard with all-wheel drive, that splits power 40/60, front to rear. The cockpit also gets a leather steering wheel, gear shift lever, sports seats, door sills, and instrument cluster. There's a unique calibration for the all-wheel-drive system and the automatic a distinct sport suspension tune more responsive steering 20-inch wheels and tires and a sport-tuned exhaust system with a resonator that pumps some engine noise into the cabin. With a standard 8-speed automatic and all-wheel drive, the new model's good for a 0-60 mph run in 4.7 seconds, and a governed top speed of 150 mph. It presses the turbocharged six for another 55 hp, bringing the total to 355 hp, and bumps torque to 343 lb-ft.
The pinnacle-for now-is the uprated and upgraded BMW X4 M40i. BMW estimates 0-60 mph times with the X4 xDrive28i owners at 6.0 seconds, the X4 xDrive35i, in just 5.2 seconds. With a Driving Dynamics Control system, you can select between several "attitudes"-including Eco Pro-to best fit your priorities. The turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-6 X4 is good for 300 hp and 300 pound-feet of torque in the X4 xDrive35i. The base powertrain combines a sweet-spinning turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-4 rated at 240 horsepower with an equally talented 8-speed automatic in the X4 xDrive28 model. Like the X3, the X4 offers a choice among four-cylinder and two six-cylinder options. The xLine trim is the same idea, just with a glossier look. The M Sport line adds special paint, M badges all around, sport seats, and bigger wheels and tires. The X4 offers the same aluminum and wood trim found on the X3, or a choice between xLine and Sport packages as options. Other details seem to work even better, like the break in the shoulder line, and the break of the C-pillar, which BMW means to hint at the X4's performance capabilities. As you spend more time with the X4, the design's flaws become more noticeable, especially its thick rear haunches. BMW planes down the rear end of the X3 to give the X4 a more curvaceous and gracious profile-and on first glance, the X4 does a better job of tailoring its duds than does the bigger X6. Like its bigger sibling, the BMW X6, the X4 purposely gives up some of its functionality in the name of fashion.
