BMW X4

The new crossover's sporty leather interior is a blatant demonstration of the excellence with which it was constructed. A powerful impression is left in the head by the sporty gear shifter and leather steering wheel. The wide control panel and ergonomically positioned control knobs provide the driver with the greatest level of comfort. The crossover's broad design gives the driver and passengers plenty of room. Due to the coupe roofline, the back bench may appear to be designed for two passengers, but it can comfortably seat three people in total with enough of head and shoulder room. All weather floor mats are also offered in the conventional version and are water and dirt resistant.

The brand has prioritised the comfort of the driver by including amenities like tilt steering, which allows the driver to adjust the wheel to his or her region of comfort in addition to a few cup holders and cool storage spots. To make shifting gears easier, paddle shift controls are also included. The seats may be adjusted electronically. In every difficult climate, temperature control in a car encloses you. The comfort access system makes it simple to unlock the door and start the engine without a key. You can travel four pairs of skis or three snowboards without clogging up your car by using ski and snowboard backpacks.

Although being a coupe, the X4 boasts a lot of interior room. The standard 40:20:40 split folding rear seats give the X4 a large feel throughout, and it can accommodate space increases of up to 1,400 litres.

You may have a theatrical experience thanks to the Harman Kardon Surround Sound System included in the M Sport option. With a pack of 16 speakers, including two centre bass, seven midrange, and seven tweeters, the brand offers you high-quality sound that you will like. You may personalise your X4 to reflect your sense of style by using genuine BMW accessories. During long journeys, a monitor and speakers with an audio playback will make you feel more at ease. The portable 7-inch screen of the tablet DVD system can be connected to headrest connectors. A functional 8 inch screen is also included with the centre console.

The X4's sophisticated silhouette lends it an air of exclusivity. The crossover has a ferocious appearance thanks to its broad haunches and the large open air inlets in the front. It is the automobile of the X genes due to the sporty bumpers. The car is more roomy due to the bulging wheel arches on the front and back. The tiny crossover gains additional chutzpah thanks to the chrome-tinted exhaust lines in the back. The distinctive kidney grills on the nose is something that BMW never forget to feature in any of its segment.

The new crossover has been modified to have LED headlamps that contact the distinctive kidney grilles. Looking to the side clearly reveals the new X4's coupe-like characteristics. The crossover appears a little more sleek thanks to the side lines that flow to the back.

The X4 has dimensions of 4671mm X 1881mm X 1624mm (L X W X H), with a wheelbase of 2810 mm. With a track width of 1616 mm, the vehicle is more voluminous, making it superior in terms of available space.

The 245/45 R19 in the front and 275/40 R19 at the rear tyre specifications are for the 19 inch M light alloy wheels in Double-spoke style 622 M, which are available in the normal and M sport version.

The vehicle's fuel economy has significantly decreased by 20% since the addition of the ECO PRO Mode. The vehicle's energy management system combines the effects of regenerative braking, electric power steering, and the star/stop feature. By combining these technologies, the BMW X4 was able to achieve an overall mileage of 13.69 kmpl.

A smooth and steady ride is made possible by the combination of McPherson strut suspension up front and multi-link suspension in the back. The car may be controlled smoothly and agilely with Servotronic variable sport steering, enabling a 6 m turning radius. BMW's xDrive all-wheel drive system makes it possible to handle a variety of driving situations.

The normal and M sport versions of the engine share similar characteristics. Dual scroll turbocharger, double-VANOS, and high precision injection are combined in one engine to enable it to produce a maximum output of 245 hp between 5,000 and 6,500 rpm. The X4's 1997 cc twin-power 4-cylinder petrol engine produces a maximum torque of 350 Nm at 1,250-4,500 rpm. The X4's 8-speed Steptronic sport transmission enables it to reach the amazing speed of 100 km/h in just 6.4 seconds. The crossover's sport mode is designed to breathe out the most power and has a top speed of 232 km/h.

The brakes used in the X4 are vented disc type, both at the rear and to the front, and they are equipped with ABS/EBD.  The little crossover SUV has a few solid safety features, including airbags for the driver, front passenger, and side passengers. The car is equipped with a few stabilisation features that allow it to handle difficult driving conditions. Parking sensors and a reverse camera direct you to quickly get away from the crowd. Aside from this, the smart entry system makes it simple to open the door. The X4 is protected from abrupt collisions by its strengthened aluminium frame. Using remote locking and an engine immobiliser increases security to a good extent. Lane departure warning and pedestrian warning systems are provided through the driving assistance feature.

Ultimately, the X4 is a fantastic combination of safety, comfort, and performance, and if you can get beyond the car's lack of cargo area and low headroom, it's virtually the ideal SUV for the Malaysian market. It's a good idea to have a backup plan, just in case.
