    Rumorpile: BMW X4 Renderings

    William Maley

    Editor/Reporter - CheersandGears.com

    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.

      Total loss including what they wrote off in their global operations around the world hit $28 billion, the largest ever. Course it does not help propping up old brands that were brought back but still cannot stand on their own like Alfa, Maserati, etc. The Italian brands just have never had quality nor been desired by the bulk of the world.

      I am all for the second amendment rights, I always protect my family, friends and neighbors first against someone who does intend violence. Yet based on the stupidity we have seen in the south with guns, I also feel one needs to have some common sense. Course my response was sarcastic which clearly failed to come across here, but I do remember these stupid folks who were out threatening as a peaceful protest walked by their house.

      It was mostly a black neighborhood when I lived in Atlanta 20 plus years ago so... I fully support gun ownership and the right to protect yourself. That includes me protecting myself from a hostile person, a hostile animal regardless of pet or wild, aliens, predators, zombies, whatever. Full stop.  I did two marathon events Saturday, a one hundred mile "century" bike ride with my wife (London Ohio, Xenia, Yellow Springs, Springfield, and then back) and then a 4 hour long Carpatho Russian Catholic service Saturday night. Was tired when I finally got to bed at 1 AM. Then worked Sunday.  I like this channel.

      I have had a bunch of them as rentals hauling debate students all over the country. Fantastic long distance cruiser, dismal product quality. Stellantis should not be assembling tacos or bicycles, much less automobiles.  At this point everything is so uninspiring visually and reliability wise that I am buying Toyota products until the next EV push comes. Not much inspiring me in the least in the current market.  They should have lost more.
