BMW has expanded its India lineup with the comeback of the X4 SUV in an all-new avatar. It will be offered in a sole M40i Performance iteration, priced at Rs 96.20 lakh (ex-showroom).
The BMW X4 M40i doesn’t have any direct rival in the country.
BMW X4 M40i – Exterior
Justifying the hefty price tag of the all-new X4 M40i trim are its sports-oriented elements that will undoubtedly amuse automotive fanatics. Having said that, the SUV comes equipped with an M Aerodynamic package, comprising elements like a blacked-out grille, gloss black treatment for skid plates & side mirrors, and 20-inch Jet black M light sportier alloy wheels shod with 245/45 R20 front and 275/40 R20 rear-section tyres, feeding it with an assertive look.
It also features the M Sport brakes with red-painted brake callipers, signature twin L-shaped LED DRLs within the dark tinted sleeker active LED headlamps, horizontal LED taillights, and dual exhaust tips with black-chrome finish for added appeal.
BMW offers the X4 M40i in two metallic body shades: Brooklyn Grey and Black Sapphire.
