2022 BMW X4 Review

- Both available engines are smooth, powerful and fuel-efficient
- Easy personalization thanks to abundant standard and optional features
- Impressive handling for an SUV
- Sloping roofline compromises rear headroom and cargo space
- Revised grille, bumpers, headlights and taillights
- M40i trim adds 48-volt mild hybrid system
- Redesigned instrument cluster and larger infotainment screen
- Sport seats with increased bolstering now standard
- Part of the second X4 generation introduced for 2019
The BMW X4 is for someone who wants to drive something sporty but still have room for passengers and cargo. The X4 provides that along with more cargo room than a sedan, but less than the X3 it's based on because of the sloping roofline. Unlike many SUVs, the X4 handles well, although not as well as a sport sedan. If you need a lot of rear passenger space and cargo room, consider the more traditional X3 or larger X5.
The X4's potent engines and impressive handling dynamics back up its sporty looks, something that's not usually the case with sporty-looking SUVs. Light off-roading is possible thanks to the standard all-wheel-drive system. The X4 isn't alone in the segment — the premium fastback SUV competes with strong rivals like the Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe and Porsche Macan. For a detailed review from our test team, check out the Expert Rating below.
Performance
The X4's brakes react quickly and are smooth and easy to use in regular driving, but handling is its biggest strength. With its standard M Sport suspension (the regular suspension is a no-cost option), our X4 test car felt solid and composed through quick corners and curves. The steering loads up well in Sport mode during curves. It's well weighted but still sharp and accurate, inspiring confidence when breezing through twistier sections of road.
Comfort
While the X4's ride is taut, it shrugs off rough roads reasonably well. It's also pretty quiet. There's a touch of wind noise, but the smooth ride, zesty engine and hushed interior make it easy to drive the X4 deceptively fast. It's easy to exceed the speed limit without realizing it.

Interior
Visibility is pretty compromised all around and especially out the narrow back window, which is more decorative than useful. A nice high-resolution backup camera helps for low-speed maneuvering and parking, but you'll definitely want to make the most of the X4's blind-spot monitoring system on the highway or around town.
Technology
The X4's included driver assistance systems are nice, but unfortunately they don't include blind-spot monitoring, which should be standard given this car's limited visibility.
Storage
Plenty of interior storage helps with keeping phones and personal items close at hand. Child seats, even large ones, will fit pretty easily, although securing the top tethers requires removing the cargo cover first.

BMW X4 vs. the competition

2022 BMW X4

2021 Porsche Macan
BMW X4 vs. Porsche Macan
Those considering the X4 should definitely cross-shop the Macan because it's one of the few SUVs that can outhandle it. Both SUVs offer a firm but comfortable ride. Pricing is also in a similar range, but Porsches can get expensive quickly with options. When it comes to tech, the BMW has the advantage thanks to its updated displays and advanced driver aids.
BMW X4 vs. Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class Coupe
If a confident-handling SUV isn't your thing, consider the GLC Coupe. It offers a more comfortable ride and a higher-grade interior. Both premium SUVs have similar fastback styling, pricing, power and features, making them very close rivals. Both are also less practical than the traditional SUVs they're based on due to the sloping roofline.
BMW X4 vs. Genesis GV70
The GV70 is the new kid on the compact premium SUV block. Similar to the Macan, it's only offered in one sporty body style and is not a fastback variant of a traditional SUV like the X4. Don't let the low starting price fool you — the Genesis comes loaded with lots of standard luxury and tech, and it matches the BMW in interior quality. It also has a more powerful base engine and a more striking design than the X4.

Should I lease or buy a 2022 BMW X4?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
