The latest-gen BMW X4 measures 4,572 mm in length, 1,918 mm in width and 1,621 mm in height. It has a wheelbase of 2,864 mm. Compared to the earlier version, the new iteration is 81 mm longer, 37 mm wider and 3 mm lower. Its wheelbase is 54 mm longer.
On the inside, the all-new BMW X4 looks a lot like the 2019 BMW X3. The talking points of the cabin include a 12-inch all-digital instrument cluster, full-colour head-up display with 70% higher projection area, 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with gesture control feature and three-zone automatic climate control.
Speaking on the aesthetics of the second-gen BMW X4, Adrian van Hooydonk, Senior Vice President BMW Group Design, has said -
The second-generation BMW X4 brings together a distinctive, dynamic silhouette with a clear, pared-back use of forms.
Internationally, the BMW X4 is on sale with seven engine options. In India, however, is expected to come with 252 hp 2.0-litre petrol and 265 hp 3.0-litre diesel engine options, along with ZF-sourced 8-speed automatic transmission and the xDrive AWD system as standard.
