BMW’s X4 Moving to New Architecture

The BMW X4 will receive two new, more powerful engines when the redesigned compact crossover goes on sale in July. In addition to the new engines, the second-generation X4 moves to a new architecture -- BMW's CLAR platform -- and becomes lighter, more efficient and roomier, Automotive News reported. The changes for the coupe-styled crossover are similar to those made for its sibling model, the BMW X3, last year. The redesigned X4 will be unveiled at the Geneva auto show in early March. The X4 will have sportier riding dynamics because of wider tracks, a lower center of gravity and updated suspension. Furthermore the vehicle’s driver assistance features and connectivity technologies have been improved. Base prices are rising to $51,445, including delivery, for the new entry model, up from $48,595 for the outgoing entry model.
