Yo need to move the shift lever over to the left AND engage the sport + button to engage full sport mode - An S will appear on the control screen with a number showing what gear you are in. If you only push the sport button - you are not fully engaging the transmission software. Jus a little tip for those who didn't know. I own the X4 - and when you engage Sport by moving the shift lever over to the left along with using the sport + button - you get all the performance the car can offer.

Thank you for all your uploads!

I would choose the X4 simply for the weight distribution and handling balance. I might be a little biased as I build BMW X models at the Spartanburg plant! 🤪

What's the wait/build time now for ordering one?

@WayneMorrison1069 6 лет назад

Hi, My wife and I own the 2018 BMW X4 M40i and we love it. I bought it in October 2017, right before they announced the 2019 version. We have it fully loaded with the HUD, solid copper brown color. This was a great purchase. Wife has been a 3 car BMW owner, since 2006. Her first SUV. Other 2 cars were the 3 series. I love the new body style of the 2019. I would've waited on it but got a great deal on ours. Handling and design are great. Enjoy everyone!!

@corpnupe85 6 лет назад

I love the detail of your videos, even if I am not interested in the vehicle

@sonvfave Год назад

Just bought an X4!! And Am Loving it!! 🎉

@jenniferusher5564 4 года назад

Took delivery of the X4 M40i the day before Thanksgiving, and traded in a Range Rover Evoque. The X4 is an incredible vehicle to drive, and compares very favorably with my 2011 M3 convertIble in the acceleration department. All in all, close to perfection, even though some find its lines a bit controversial.

@bh4560 3 года назад

I love the lines on this car. Gorgeous.. especially looking over the hood. 😍👌

@handlealreadytaken 6 лет назад

Went with the X3 M40i over all them. Liked the driving dynamics the best and it was very well equipped for $8k off the $66k sticker price. Since I was going for an SUV I also didn't want to lose out on the rear storage and headroom. Live in Atlanta, Georgia for reference.

cant wait to get my m40i! Thanks for the great review hope to hear more about it👍🏽

@Greatone999 6 лет назад

Bill Win just ordered X4 30i msport, 40i was a little to pricey for me, hope you enjoy !

@ninjawilliam1 6 лет назад

Greatone999 you too man! that was my first choice but since i’m only keeping it for a couple years as a commuting car thought might as well get the whole shabang and trade it in for next gen when it releases

@knowledgeishere5072 6 лет назад

Good review as usual. Please do a review on the BMW 3 series GT. I would really like to know what you think about it. The GT is so middle of the road that it's somewhat qwerky and forgotten. Please review it. Watching from Trinidad.

@nickonet101 5 лет назад

I have one on order, I’ll be picking it up in about 3 weeks and I can’t wait. I chose this over a Porsche Macan, f-pace, Audi Q5S. Velar. I did not have the Volvo on my list as I really didn’t want a child carrier. Long Island New York.

@vh9network 6 лет назад

I'm not going to lie but that interior of that X4 M40i looks nice.

@mf4403 6 лет назад

Have you actually sat in it? I was shocked how cheap some of the plastics looked on a X3/4 compared to a similar priced 5 Series.maybe it’s supposed to be baby buggy whipe down style.....

@MadbeaverCH 6 лет назад

i ordered my X4 M40i and can't wait to get him. I think from the look and power is the M40i the best Version for buying a 3 liter engine. I life in switzerland.

@igarti 5 лет назад

Marc Schmitt I’ve ordered mine too. Just for curious: which interior and exterior color did you choose. All the best. Ignacio

@igarti 5 лет назад

Marc Schmitt I live in Spain...

@Greatone999 6 лет назад

Just made my switch from 435i xDrive To the X4 30i. This is my first suv crossover ever and the first time I will not be driving a Manual transmission!!!!! Not sure what to expect P.S. (rumors say) manuals are not on the new 3 series and probably being phased out of most car manufacturers e.g. Mercedes, Suburu etc... boooooo All hail the electric driverless car !!! Elon from president, I’m ranting Great review

@edysinsimon8646 6 лет назад

Make it the M40d option and consider me hooked! I know they make/sell them worldwide, everywhere BUT the country where they are made! Just the X5 gets the straight 6 cylinder diesel? In the states? Come on BMW!

@TheKingkingg 6 лет назад

Awesome

@GrayHuska 6 лет назад

I have the X3 M40i and i was so disappointed that it didn’t come with an M steering wheel in North America yet the rest of the world gets it... And now the X4 M40i doesn’t get it either? How do I go about getting that wheel? I know it’s a small detail but BMW really should give all owners one considering every other country gets it.

@rival121 5 лет назад

So sad; you should have waited a model year. Standard on 2019 m40i models

@vaughanwalker4857 6 лет назад

Haven’t driven the X4 m40i but have driven X3 m40i, was impressed with its performance and overall package. I’ve previously owned an suv performance vehicle so I have something to compare it to. It’s that straight 6 cylinder engine the BMW uses, it’s too hard to describe how good it really is. The popularity of performance suv is on the rise in New Zealand and Australia , sure suv’s have been popular for a long time but I see a lot of SQ5 ,X5 M, X4, GLC 43 AMG and Macan’s getting around . My prediction for the X4 and more so the X3 M40i is that they will sell a lot of them down under as BMW are a big seller amongst middle class car buyers .

@IceDree 6 лет назад

I'll definitely go with X4... Unless the Velar is on the table ;) As to the why, I kinda like the new X4 (I hated the first one, it felt like a cheap X6* knock off). The Volvo is not available here & I can't in good conscience pick a GLC without it being a 63! ___ * I'm one of the few broken people who love the X6 lol. Right up there with the Geländewagen & the Bangle 7. As always, excellent work. M!

@s00840723 6 лет назад

I'll choose x4.X product have great handling and suspension. It will be driving machine

@MrDoctorm3 6 лет назад

i remember you once told us that the best driving SUV of the category is the porsche macan so i would like to add to that question xc60 t8 porsche macan or the new x4 m40 or even the q5??? what is YOUR choice MOTOMAN?? what would you choose??

@letsrollout7307 6 лет назад

The roads are amazing wow. I would love to film my show on these roads. Love it love it 💕💕

@ceez0079 4 года назад

What do you think of the x4 M Competition, I'm in between that and the reg xM40i, is it worth it.? I need an expert's opinion. I'm in central Ca. Kern county

@JuanJimenez-ei2do 5 лет назад

Hello, why would you prefer macan S over X4 40M? I am between these two, please help me with a brief comment.

@calimade8136 5 лет назад

Why won't they offer cooled seats and how come we didn't get the M steering wheel like the European version?

@fciscokid 5 лет назад

I have the first gen 2018 BMW x4m40i and test drove all the ones mentioned in the video. Mercedes glc43 came close. BMW won apparently can't wait for my lease to be over to get into the second gen version.

@markbillington5985 6 лет назад

Great review. Its likely the X4 M40i trumps the Merc and both Volvo’s for driver appeal and would probably have my vote BUT my wife thought the XC60 is a lovely place to be. Says it all? X4 versus Macan S?

@MotoManTV 6 лет назад

Macan S.

@gjhunter9326 6 лет назад

Maybe I missed it, but are the suspension differences you describe that make it a more neutral handling vehicle unique to the X4 M40i vs X3 M40i?

@cecet5534 3 года назад

Yes

@kevinnassiri481 6 лет назад

I recently test drove this car and I liked it a lot. But the GLC 63 Coupe has a lot more power. Do you know if BMW has any plans of coming up with a M version to keep up with with AMG? I'm not in a big rush to get a suv now I can wait 3 or 4 months if they are coming out with a M version. Please let me know if you have other recommendations for me.

@bmwproboi05 5 лет назад

Yes, they are currently being tested. You can find videos of them/ pictures online look for "born in m town"

@mariolastra9709 6 лет назад

im stuck between the M40I and the GLC43....both great looking cars!

@186bingo 6 лет назад

Try the SQ5 before you buy. If it's just between the BMW and Mercedes my vote would be for the Merc. Take an example of each out on an extended drive and see what you like. Also if you have a family you should try and sit in the back while someone is driving to evaluate the comfort level.

@fciscokid 5 лет назад

Hands down BMW x4m40i

@bh4560 3 года назад

I agree.. go with the bmw. 😍👌

@186bingo 6 лет назад

I don't know MM, the SQ5 offering from Audi seems compelling and starts at $54K. Sticking to your rules though, I'd probably get the GLC43. Recently went between an X5M and a GLE63 and found the Mercedes offering a whole lot more liveable when you don't want to be a hooligan, and sounds much better too. We bought the Mercedes. We also have an Audi and a Corvette in the house and we live in the Midwest. Great review!

@maestroadam 6 лет назад

186bingo nice garage!

@186bingo 6 лет назад

Adam Bernard thanks :-) we like our ponies!

@DerHalbeEuro 6 лет назад

I like how BMW upate the whole interior. They are head to head to Audi and not behind them anymore.

@MoHeidariFar 6 лет назад

How does it compare to Macan S?

@ToOpen6seven 2 года назад

I need to know if the car is reliable?

@6SpeedTA95 6 лет назад

You need to do the X3 M40i and xDrive 30i. X4 lacks the utility and looks goofy AF

@kebekebe8025 8 месяцев назад

@robertk.5463 6 лет назад

Why it doesn't have new interior like new X5 is beyond me... :(

@MegaMatrix03 5 лет назад

Why is that most car reviewers review the highest specs and the most powerful engine, where only 10% of buyers can afford? Why not start to review the base model, where the majority of people can afford?

@LacoteCohen 6 лет назад

What did Lexus do then since their RX is the king of the hill?

@stubones 6 лет назад

It might be king of your hill, but not THE hill.

@carlle8098 3 года назад

I think they became king of the hill, and then basically fell asleep for 15 years and still haven't woken up...

@Croak1 6 лет назад

Gun to the head forced to buy a CUV/SUV, I would probably choose the Volvo so as not to suffer from the negative social credit you get as a BMW or Mercedes owner. I.e., avoid the automatic assumption that I'm a dick. That's actually worth something on the road and not just in your head. Actually, I think a fair chunk of Lexus, Acura et al (and even Volvo) successes vs die Deutschen stems from the fact that they don't have "dick badges", which is appealing to a lot of folks. And disclosure, I've owned and greatly enjoyed BMWs.

@derrekb4501 6 лет назад

Use of the term baby buggy is old and tiresome....I hate the dated interior it’s just not fresh. Even Acura looks like this now

@thepb77777 5 лет назад

You don’t look very comfortable driving that car. I wonder why.

@Warrior11117 5 лет назад

Had a 2018 glc43 suv for 6 months and what a waste of money!!! Had a 2018 amg gla45 Before that and traded it in for the glc but ended up wasting even more money. I swear I Will Never buy any other so called pretending performance vehicle ever. It’s like females wasting their money on buying high end purses that cost 10percent of what they are retailed for
