What changed on the 2022 BMW X4
Carvana (opens in a new tab) calls the 2022 X4 a meaningful refresh rather than a simple carryover, with updated styling, a revised center console, larger standard displays, expanded safety equipment and mild-hybrid assist for the M40i. Live Cockpit Professional becomes standard across the lineup, bringing a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 12.3-inch touchscreen with navigation. The xDrive30i pairs a 248-hp turbo four-cylinder with all-wheel drive, a panoramic sunroof and perforated SensaTec sport seats.
