The drive
It’s still very much a BMW, driving like one in a raised coupe shell that has carved a new category pioneered by the X6.

Smooth delivery
Not creamy like BMW’s vaunted in-line 6 perhaps, but advancements in powertrain has resulted in a capable 4-potter that gets the job done with minimal fuss.

Premium comfort for four
Sit four and it’s perfect. Fit five and it’s a squeeze.

Tech infusion
BMW has always been known for making cars that are a rolling showcase for technological advancements such as smart energy management, Performance Control and extended smartphone connectivity.

Boot lid delight
Not many cars have contactless tailgate opening and this is certainly useful for times when you have your hands full with a bawling kid or groceries. The key fob should of course be with you in order to carry out this neat trick.
