2019 BMW X4 Video Review


The redesigned 2019 BMW X4 is the second generation X4 that’s heavily based on the redesigned BMW X3. The X4 looks kind of the same up front, but there are bigger changes in the rear.

BMW lifted the rear roofline, which pays big dividends for backseat passengers. The X4 used to be a “me” car, not a “we” car, because if you had friends who had to sit in the back they would be very unhappy even on short trips.
BMW fixed this by raising the roof on the X4. There’s actually headroom in the rear, so I can sit back here comfortably. One more thing: BMW added a large panoramic moonroof, which lets in more light in for backseat passengers so you don’t feel like you’re sitting in a cave.

That’s not the only thing that’s changed on the X4. There are a few new technologies in the X4 that BMW says give us a preview of what’s to come in the BMW X6 and BMW X7. That includes a larger 10.25-inch infotainment screen and a new instrument panel with nice accent rings around the speedometer and tachometer.
One final feature on the X4 is a multicolor head-up display that’s 75 percent larger than the one in previous cars; BMW says it will be the largest head-up display in its class.
When the BMW X4 goes on sale in July, X4 30i models will start at just more than $51,000, while the X4 M40i high-performance model we see here will start at just more than $61,000.
