Car Profiles - BMW X4

BMW X4

Complain all you want since the BMW X family is expanding with models that are filling niches, but the line is successful that they can't help but grow. With a platform and engines being shared with the X3, it will slot above the little brother but below the X5. A car for those who want to express themselves.

The Good: High levels of quality and driving excitement
The Bad: Not that practical as you think

Price Range: P4,990,000-P5,990,000
