BMW X4 (2018-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Coupe-like looks stand out from the SUV crowd	Not as practical as an X3, although that's hardly surprising
Drives well, even if you choose one of the less powerful versions	No plug-in hybrid version
The xDrive30d offers great performance and reasonable economy	Lacks a small petrol engine

Quick Summary

The BMW X4 (2018-present) is a distinctive coupe-SUV that deliberately sacrifices some practicality for bold styling and driving engagement. This second-generation model combines the high-riding stance of an SUV with a rakish roofline and sleek profile that sets it apart in an increasingly crowded market. Despite being slightly less spacious than its X3 sibling, the X4 offers a respectable 525 litres of boot space with seats up, or 1,430 litres with them folded, making it genuinely usable for most owners. All models feature xDrive four-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic transmission, with a range spanning from the efficient 190hp xDrive20d to the thrilling 510hp M Competition.

The X4 excels where it matters most: driving dynamics. Even the entry-level xDrive20d feels brisk and engaging, whilst the xDrive30d delivers an impressive blend of 5.8-second 0-62mph acceleration and over 40mpg economy. All versions benefit from M Sport suspension, finely weighted steering, and a chassis that rides commendably well. Running costs vary significantly across the range, with the xDrive20d achieving 42.2-45.6mpg and the xDrive30d returning 38.2-40.9mpg. However, all X4s exceed the £40,000 threshold for higher annual road tax. The X4 M Competition makes less practical sense but delivers genuine thrills for those seeking M Car performance in a taller package.

Best for: Buyers seeking distinctive styling, engaging driving dynamics, and those who prioritise aesthetics over maximum practicality; performance enthusiasts wanting M Car thrills in an SUV form. Not ideal for: Those requiring maximum boot space, families needing extensive rear headroom, or buyers seeking plug-in hybrid or small petrol engine options.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the X4 if: You prioritise distinctive styling and engaging driving dynamics, seek a coupe-SUV that stands out from the crowd, or want M Car performance in a taller, more practical package. Consider alternatives if: You require maximum boot space, need extensive rear headroom for families, or prefer plug-in hybrid or small petrol engine options. Competitive Position: The BMW X4 (2018-present) is a compelling choice for those willing to sacrifice some practicality for bold aesthetics and driver engagement. Whilst rivals like the Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class and Porsche Macan offer higher overall ratings and better value propositions, the X4 delivers distinctive styling and genuine driving enjoyment. The Range Rover Evoque offers superior value with 45.7% good/great deals available. However, for buyers seeking a coupe-SUV that combines performance with presence, the X4 remains a divisive but thoroughly justifiable choice, particularly in xDrive30d M Sport specification with the Technology and Comfort packages.
