近日，有外媒曝光了一组宝马X4M在纽博格林赛道测试的谍照，新车外观有小幅调整，动力上将搭载取自M3和M4的3.0升直列六缸双涡轮增压引擎，最大功率可达到354千瓦/475马力。由于动力强劲，车身行驶高度进一步调低，还将配备更大轮圈和更硬轮胎，而更大尺寸刹车盘将为这辆高性能车型提供与其动力相匹配的强劲制动力。外观方面，新车前脸采用黑色双肾式格栅，其尺寸也有所增加，前大灯组采用宝马标志性设计，而下方贯穿进气格栅的横条面积进一步缩小。此外，其雾灯被整合在保险杠下部两侧，并加入了更复杂的造型设计。尾部，新车换装了全新LED尾灯组，将带来全新的视觉效果，尾部排气采用双边共四出设计，同时尾部也增加了M运动套件。预计内装也将小幅升级，配备碳纤维装饰和Alcantara内饰。预计该车将于年底前发布，售价将高于X4标准版的60450美元（约合人民币40万元）。

 

BMW X4 M Spied Looking Speedy Around The Nürburgring

The BMW X4 already offers buyers tons of style, and the upcoming M version adds significantly more performance for power-hungry customers. This spy video catches the engineers working out the X4 M at the Nürburgring, and there's an up-close look at the parked SUV later in the clip.

 

The X4 M will follow the usual recipe of BMW's performance models by upping the engine output and improving the SUV's driving capabilities. Under the hood, the SUV will have the familiar 3.0-liter biturbo inline-six from the M3 and M4 with around 475 horsepower (354 kilowatts) in this application. To make the most of the extra ponies, the engineers will drop the ride height and fit larger wheels with sticky tires. Larger brakes will make it easier to slow down the more hardcore machine.

The X4 M will also feature slight changes to the vehicle's aesthetics. BMW tries to hide the tweaks under camouflage on this test mule, but the concealment really just calls attention to what's different. A revised front bumper features larger intakes. The rear gains a larger spoiler on the tip of the trunk lid. A tweaked lower fascia at the back incorporates four, circular exhaust outlets. Expect smaller tweaks on the inside, like carbon fiber trim and Alcantara upholstery.

 

The standard X4 arrives in the United States in July, and the range-topping 355-hp (265-kW) M40i version starts at $60,450. Look for the M model to debut before the end of the year and carry an even higher price.
