    Rumorpile: BMW X4 Renderings

    February 4, 2012

    Back in January, BMW announced $900 million investment into their Spartanburg, S.C. plant to bring forth 300 new jobs and to make way for a forth vehicle to be built. That forth vehicle is a smaller version of the X6 called the X4.

    Auto Express has done a couple renderings of what the X4 could look like when it goes into production in 2014.

    The X4 will share the overall shape of the X6 including a sloping roofline, unique lights and bumpers, and a distinct front end. The X4 will use the X3’s platform and share engines.

    Stop the insanity. I can't wait for this SUV fad to be over. Why does BMW need 4 SUVs and 5 counting the X1 that may come here? That is stupid. And the problem is most of the people supporting this "I want a new SUV that isn't an SUV, but is trendy to park at Starbucks" are the yuppie types that buy BMWs. What is happening to performance? Automakers want to make econoboxes and SUVs now, and kill sport sedans and coupes.

    Due to Dual incomes, families that have no kids or the kids are finally over and off on their own, want a driving machine with the room of a Mini Van. So with that said, everyone is delivering the SUV/CUV with AWD that the market demands.

    You want your driving machine, go buy your CTS-V, M3, AMG, Corvette, Camaro, Mustange, etc. Plenty of driving machines even in a dull version like the ugly camry.

    This is the Age of the SUV/CUV.

      Yes, the incompetent leadership is hurting this country more than helping and talk about wasting billions on repainting plans into his stupid colors as if it would last and he clearly did not listen to the science that shows his colors cause overheating and issues with the electronics on the plane.

      Interesting, I am far more satisfied with my Kia over anything I have seen, experienced with Tesla. I think BMW is nailing it right now especially compared to Mercedes. Interesting is that Tesla is considered Luxury and yet my EV9 is more expensive than Tesla garbage. I totally agree with the JD Powers EV Ownership Experience. Tesla Still Rules EV Satisfaction, Though One Rival Just Caught Up | Carscoops

      True they could have done better, but then if that is all they are loaned by the companies, who can you blame but the company who loaned a single stage to go up against a dual stage. Kinda like folks that compare dual pane to triple pane windows and complain about the cost without looking at the full picture. This comparison had some valid data but agree with you that it could have been a fairer comparison of like units. Makes one wonder if he clearly stated he wanted all dual stage units or just asked for a snow blower to compare.

      Hahaha they compared a $1700 two-stage Ego to two cheap, single-stage units. 200lb Ego vs 33lb Greenworks vs 47lb Worx. Why they wouldn't have at least tried Greenworks two-stage units is just plain stilly. Also, why not against another real unit in one of Toro's $1700 two-stage unit.  What a crap comparison.
