Versatile and sporty appeal

BMW’s all-new X4 sport activity coupe features a distinctive design that the marque believes will appeal to sporty-minded buyers wanting “high levels of versatility and premium motoring with a point of difference”. The front of the model is recognisable as a member of the X family with light bands around the headlights’ outer edges slightly flattened at the top and back. The radiator grille surround is in chrome and there are large front air inlets. In profile, the low coupe-style roofline extends into the rear. The model is available with a choice of two TwinPower Turbo diesel engines and eight-speed automatic transmissions featuring gear-shift paddles on the steering wheel. The BMW X4 xDrive20d xLine is priced at $99,500 and the X4 xDrive35d M Sport costs $129,900. For more on these cars, check out the October 21 issue of Autofile magazine.
