Nobody that buys these cars watches these videos, and anyone watching these videos wouldn't buy this car. It's one of the largest injustices in this world.
My boss has one. All she saw was BMW, SUV and sporty. I don’t think she even test drove it. Trunk is too low with hatchback to be as usable as a normal SUV and suspension is harsh. That said, as Mr Geese notes, it is a fun car to drive on a windy road between 40 and 70 in manual mode
You might have a point when it comes to certain cars but not all or even most. Many people actually do research before they spend 45K. If they don't on their first car they WILL on the other ones 😂 So I give this a partially true 🤔
@@delacaravanio its the problem with BMW and their owners. It's like Apple products, once you're in, you're probably never gonna be out. You'll always buy them, despite having better options elsewhere
Exactly! I'd watch his review of a Pontiac Aztec. Hmmm... now that I think of it, I'd LOVE to see him review a Pontiac Aztec! LOL! It'd be right up there with the PT Cruiser review!
Unpopular Opinion: ...I find every single Coupe Crossover SUV in existence... simply pointless. This is no exception. ...Was there ever a target market for these things to begin with?
It's crazy, i just don't get why people buy these. Almost every Coupe Crossover looks worse than the original SUV. Even though i don't like SUV's to begin with i'd rather buy an X3 than this.
People: My sedan is too short. BMW: Uh-huh People: I need more interior volume BMW: Got it. People: Some ground clearance pls BMW: Okay People: Make it drive like a car BMW: Say no more fam... *Gives us X6 X4* People: Wait, did you just take a regular SUV and remove some cargo capa.... BMW: *YOU WILL LIKE THIS!!!!*
Funny to me b the whole video is about how he didn’t like it, I expected other people to say the same thing. However. I don’t like how SUVs typically look. I want something that TO ME looks a little more sporty. Has ground clearance, and is just comfortable enough to happily get me to and from the job. Ppl like me is who this car appeals to. Love it. Aiming to get one
I love the styling of these crossovers like the X6, X4, GLC Coupe, GLE Coupe. It’s odd and it’s mission is not about the functionality. It’s about the style. If you want the full functionality then buy the X3 and let stylish people buy the X4. I like anything odd looking so I’m one of those people who like this car. It’s perfect for what I would want it for. I don’t plan of having lots of kids, I don’t drive around with lots of friends, i don’t put lots of crap in the trunk, I don’t like big SUVs, I like cars but a car with a bit more presence like this odd looking X4 is exactly what someone like me would drive.
I think what people mean is you take beautiful shots of the car, still and moving. They would just like to see more of that. The way you set the shot up, the lighting and the unique way you move around the car, it’s cinematic perfection.
This guys car analysis makes Doug Demuro look like a kindergarten teacher for special needs. I always learn something new from this dude - he should be called the professor of car reviews. Thank you.
'Really like the occasional camera view thru the steering wheel, SG, to watch the tach and speedo while accelerating. In fact (as always), the entire video production should win awards.
I had the X3 35i, with 300hp, and it was fantastic except for the initial start off like you mention. Consensus on forums is that BMW “softens” the launch via tuning/software and has done this on many different models. Otherwise I would avoid the 4cyl on the suvs as a rule, it’s just too much weight. Buy the 6 turbo and you’ll enjoy it far better.
Sports Activity Coupes are the official vehicles of adult babies who still haven’t learned that you can’t have your cake and eat it too. “I want a coupe, but I also want 4 doors and a hatch. I also want SUV ride height, but sports car handling. Finally, I want sports car power, but econo car efficiency.” You end up with a car that does none of those things well.
Very well said and if i may add something, i need something more for my 60 grand car as well and that is reliability and quality and i ve never had these at any BMW i ve owned or i ve driven before.
You might be overestimating the mechanical/vehicle dynamic knowledge of these buyers. My internet analysis of these buyers is that the thinking goes like this: "I've made it in this world and it's time I got a BMW to let everyone know. Hmmm, what's this big car? 'X4.' It's bigger than that other car and the same price! That little car is so dumb. Give me the big one. 8 year finance? Sure. Vroom!"
@@DassRoc You must have been living under a rock for the past decade or so since SUVs are the largest selling automotive segment. As such, there are lots of buyers who want different things, from large SUVs for families, to compact ones, to those who like even this X4, all with different tastes in design.
The X4 is that weird Uncle in the family that changed his name to Janine and eats only asparagus at thanksgiving dinners so that their pee smells weird in other people's bathrooms. But still annoyingly fun to drive. Epic vid. And beautiful drone shots in this one.
I agree, the X4 is strange at best. A sort of out of proportion hunchback. What isn’t weird, however, are these reviews! Keep up these kick-ass reviews @savagegeese I haven’t watched a video yet that I didn’t agree with.
Love the camera work. It’s beautiful in every video you create. Vehicle, not so beautiful, but the production quality is amazing so of course I’m gonna watch the whole thing lol.
One thing that's always bugged me is that no car manufacturer matches the vehicle colour on the infotainment system to the vehicle its fitted to. Always looks like you're adjusting the settings on someone else's car. How difficult is it to code that in?
This is one of the best reviews of vehicles: neutral delivery without BMW "imperiousness". This review is well worded, fair, and does not make a big show or deal of the BMW badge. Well done.
It’s a rare looking car that’s why it catches peoples eye … I love the look … my neighbor has the x6 in red and it grew on me a lot … but I’m a single male so the x6 is a bit much so the x4 is perfect and of course the AWD
If viewers want more shots of the exterior, they should just look them up on their own time. My favorite parts of your videos are the interior and underbody segments with commentary. Keep it up!
I guess I’m one of few ‘weird’ people who like this car a lot. I have been eyeing on S5 for a year until I moved to midtown Toronto where there are 4-6 major pot holes on every block thanks to the horrible weather and multiple big constructions. Punctured my tires 3 times in 6 months, etc. So I needed some ground clearance and still did not need a Regular SUV. This car did fit my needs 100%. Tried M40i and it was so much fun to drive. The exterior was so much better than the previous version. Checked the cargo and it was plenty. People complain about rear seats but I rarely have people in the back so it was not my problem. Now I have to say I ended up buying X3 M40i because fully loaded 18 X3 M40i I purchased was more than CAD10k cheaper than almost loaded 19 X4 M40i. X3 was less fun but not $10k less. I agree it is a niche car and I think BMW knows that too because every dealership I know carries only couple of X4 while they have easily 15-20 of X3s. But just like GLC Coupe I see this more on the road and I believe they are becoming more practical. I know so many people hate this type of cars with passion but I don’t think they will fade away anytime soon lol
You should have reviewed the X4 M40i. It’s got all the options, power and adjustments you need. I’ve driven this car, Macan, evoque, fpace and the BMW is the best all round. Throw on the 21” wheels and it looks fantastic.
In my opinion this is the best infotainment in the business. Physical controls for everything use on a daily basis and there is the screen for redundancy. Very nice interior and I like the integration of the analog dials and digital display.
Great video, as always. I have an F30 335i with the M performance kit and the adaptive suspension and they pretty much solve all of the issues you talked about. I’d love for you to review it. I had a loaner X4 and I definitely saw that your complaints were justified. If you can, do a f30 335i or 340i next!!
I’ve debated the market for this car for a while. It’s the person looking to dip into the crossover market but the X1 or X3 is just too pedestrian. This is the classic upsell from those for people who assume ugly cars are just the direction we’re headed and it’s just what people have to do to be considered sporty and trendy these days
Video cannot show how beautiful this X4 is. Go to dealership and check this car, nice style and shape better than X5,X6. BMW never disappoint you about their performance
Whenever I see this on the road, I'm always more Careful. You have to be a certain kind of person to get one of these. Great review though :) I too find it difficult to put my eyes on it
This is one of those cars where.... in the future.. “Oh, remember the 4-door coupe era? “ it’s like the AMC Pacer. It sold well initially and laughed at in hindsight.
I like this style of body. I like the offroad/hatchback/sedan crossover type thing its got going on. combination of passenger space, cargo space, and some rugged capability - with the possibility of some speed and handling ability too. That is what you see when looking at the exterior of it.
people make fun of BMW for this car, but really its the idiots who demand these things we should be making fun of. "coupe" SUVs only exist because there is demand in the market. companies are profit driven, and that's really all they care about.
I love your videos, thank you for posting. I agree with you, the X4 is a strange creation and not for everyone. Glad I went with the X3 straight six engine.
As a Honda Crosstour Owner, this is probably one of the few cars I'd replace it with... I don't know about this version (2019), but the current 2023 version is 1 inch wider, 2 inches taller, and 10 inches shorter... The shorter I don't think will be a deal breaker for a wagon lover, but I'm sure it'll make it much more fun to drive.
Ridley Scott would be proud of your shots bro. I feel like the X4 just needs some MUD tires, that would help, right off that bat! Nice to hear about good infotainment, wish Lexus would take some notes... I'd never buy a big money waster, but as always, I'll watch whatever you put out Mr. Goose.
I never thought this shape worked on a car this size like it does on a bigger car like the X6 which I had in the first generation. Still miss that car. That’s one reason why I’ve recently pushed the button on a X3 instead of the X4, though not with the 4 cylinder 3.0i but the M40i with adaptive suspension.
It's allright but I'd say keep sticking to what's important. I see a lot of auto reviewers coming up lately that go into every . little . detail . about a car. And I think you were onto something better. From watching your videos I've come to the expectancy that I would get a good feeling about the car, not that I'd get to know it in every bit, which I don't think it could happen anyway. Yeah, don't turn into every car reviewer, it would be a shame and you wouldn't last there anyway.
I know everyone has done one by now, but can you PLEASE review the M40i versions of the X3 and X4? I want to hear your opinions on those enhanced (albeit still not fully M) trim levels. I want to know if those trims are better and worth the upgrade.
Fans: "Show us more of the exterior!" Savagegeese: *shows of the exterior of the BMW X4* Fans: "We regret everything! 🤢" Savagegeese: "At least it's not a Lexus."
I think the motor has been overly hampered with boost by gear, it should pull harder in the lower gears. I heave the European version in my 2 series and for how powerful it feels in 3rd, it should feel far more savage in first but it’s not, it just revs out smoothly but a little slower than one would expect. However where I have a manual and far less weight than this car, in sport mode, even in comfort if you give it the revs it will absolutely launch and launch harder than the NA straight 6 cars.
Thanks for the great research and info on all vehicles. Really laying it down how it is. Have fun dissing on these questionable machines--heck, people buy them anyway. I look forward for a review on a modern car that is 10 out of 10.

Hello geese, I really would appreciate it if your were to review the Acura rlx sports hybrid 2019. I enjoy your expertise and your video editing and quality. Thanks.
I very much agree with Your difficulties to look at this 'thing'. I needed my 2 hands to hold back my breakfast before I reached the sink and hit the button by 1:48.
JUST GIVE ME A DAMN WAGON. This is just as miserable as the 3 and 5 series GT's. BMW has the 5 series sedan and a 6 series coupe/gran coupe which are both appealing in their own rights, but then they said what about a 5 series coupe/fastback? And it's horrible. Who asked for it? What purpose or void does it fill? BMW appears to have a director for each number series and they all want their own lineups. 3 series- sedan/M, wagon, gt and SUV. 4 series- coupe/gran coupe/M, convertible and SAC. There are far too many models in their current lineup and most are stepping on each other's feet. Just head over to their website and you'll see what I mean. And nearly $58k for this... this thing?? Nope.
Made in Mexico parts on this turd to lower cost (BMW’s, not yours) and it still starts at $50k. I’ll bet their profit margins have never been greater. BMW has been dead since 2003.
Well after owning a few older X3 & X5, I feel these new SAV are more practical and just as much fun to drive as the (now sadly) sedans - unless you go with the M(stuff). So for folks with 1 kid/dog that can only have one vehicle (in a city), this is definitely a good option to an X3 if you want something a bit sportier ...as the X1 & X2 are more for the "DINKs" crowd. At least their overall model lineup is less confusing than that of MB.
The point of the sports suspension is that you can drive it like you drive a normal car otherwise you would need to be more cautios if you need faster turns for example you can overtake with more confidence. Also it gives better clearance over obstacles but luxury cars are not for off road adventures. On country roads it’s so stiff almost like only the wheels dampens the ride
I actually prefer this over the X3. More aerodynamic, interesting, and only a tiny bit smaller boot. It's a shame there is no electric / hybrid option though.
Can you review the Toyota Four Runner Trd Pro? It seems like the reviews are all over the place. Consumer reports gave it horrible scores, KBB liked it, etc. My question is to see if it’s a good vehicle, that will last for a long time and that it is enjoyable to live with as a daily driver. Thanks

Of course you never buy a BMW - you lease it and make damn sure that you have nothing to do with it after the lease period is up.

From watching your videos I've come to the expectancy that I would get a good feeling about the car, not that I'd get to know it in every bit, which I don't think it could happen anyway.
Yeah, don't turn into every car reviewer, it would be a shame and you wouldn't last there anyway.
I know everyone has done one by now, but can you PLEASE review the M40i versions of the X3 and X4? I want to hear your opinions on those enhanced (albeit still not fully M) trim levels. I want to know if those trims are better and worth the upgrade.
Great interior. I also like the brown-grey on the outside, as well.
these videos look abosolutely stunning in 4K HDR Tv's
Talking about identity crisis, there's also the BMW 4 series grand coupe. It's a sedan that's called a coupe but also technically a hatchback.
Although I would take the grand coupe 4 over this any day of the week.
I just came here for the roasts. 4/10. Not savage enough :D
Moderately peeved goose: confirmed
I talked to a BMW employee and they hate the X1, 2, 4, and 6 too.
In terms of styling, the X1 and X2 are pretty good vehicles. The X4/X6, not so much. It depends on the viewers' opinions, though.
Fans: "Show us more of the exterior!"
Savagegeese: *shows of the exterior of the BMW X4*
Fans: "We regret everything! 🤢"
Savagegeese: "At least it's not a Lexus."
When you're discussing your conclusion, the the hood-headlight view looks a lot like an Escape.
I guess it looks like the new EDGE ST
Liked before even watching it.
I think the motor has been overly hampered with boost by gear, it should pull harder in the lower gears. I heave the European version in my 2 series and for how powerful it feels in 3rd, it should feel far more savage in first but it’s not, it just revs out smoothly but a little slower than one would expect. However where I have a manual and far less weight than this car, in sport mode, even in comfort if you give it the revs it will absolutely launch and launch harder than the NA straight 6 cars.
One of the things that we like with the X3 is the rear seat comfort and room. How are the rear seats in the X4?
Thanks for the great research and info on all vehicles. Really laying it down how it is. Have fun dissing on these questionable machines--heck, people buy them anyway.
I look forward for a review on a modern car that is 10 out of 10.
This is something my weed dealer would buy
Are they getting high on their own supply?
Moist Chungus and you will never this because you just keep buying the weed ( shit ). Feel sorry for you.
@@ISTVAN1127 oh yeah please feel sorry for me I only make close to $64,000 a year after taxes and I spend it all on weed. You're a real troglodyte aren't you. If I was horrible with money then I would go out and buy 4 of these cash
Moist Chungus wee, wee, weeeee!
@@aliabdallah102 lol
Hello geese, I really would appreciate it if your were to review the Acura rlx sports hybrid 2019. I enjoy your expertise and your video editing and quality. Thanks.
Agree with you. Remind me of the Honda Crosstour 2011. Only a mother could love it!
I very much agree with Your difficulties to look at this 'thing'. I needed my 2 hands to hold back my breakfast before I reached the sink and hit the button by 1:48.
holy shit the intro noise was awesome. thought someone was breaking into my backdoor, lol!
JUST GIVE ME A DAMN WAGON. This is just as miserable as the 3 and 5 series GT's. BMW has the 5 series sedan and a 6 series coupe/gran coupe which are both appealing in their own rights, but then they said what about a 5 series coupe/fastback? And it's horrible. Who asked for it? What purpose or void does it fill?
BMW appears to have a director for each number series and they all want their own lineups. 3 series- sedan/M, wagon, gt and SUV. 4 series- coupe/gran coupe/M, convertible and SAC. There are far too many models in their current lineup and most are stepping on each other's feet. Just head over to their website and you'll see what I mean.
And nearly $58k for this... this thing?? Nope.
5 series GT is way better than this
Wagons are slowly coming back so we can hope
Go and buy one - Mercedes, and Volvo make them
Can you review the 2022 model? I would love to know your thoughts on it
Video coming in the future for the new 3 series?
Great review!
why your channel not hitting 1million subscribers yet? the geese deserves moreeee...
By "aluminum" do you mean Aluminium (Ai)?
Sorry, I had to say it. It annoys me when people get it wrong.
Very nice video, as per usual. 👍😊
Made in Mexico parts on this turd to lower cost (BMW’s, not yours) and it still starts at $50k. I’ll bet their profit margins have never been greater. BMW has been dead since 2003.
The E90 was a pretty nice machine.
@@maestroadam Do you own an e90? I own 2. a n54 335i and a 325i. They are exactly as stated above. TURDS. Problematic, expensive part turds.
Completely agree. They have become problematic, expensive part turds. I own a e36 m3 and two e90s, Take a guess which cars drain me dry?
you are dumb. Go drive a new m2 or 2020 3 series!!
Why don’t you just buy a Corolla and call it a day.
Jack of all trades master of none.
This "Identity Crisis" model has risen from the BMW design shittery in 2023/2024 into a iconic beauty. Okay, not quite the ass, but everywhere else.
Well after owning a few older X3 & X5, I feel these new SAV are more practical and just as much fun to drive as the (now sadly) sedans - unless you go with the M(stuff).
So for folks with 1 kid/dog that can only have one vehicle (in a city), this is definitely a good option to an X3 if you want something a bit sportier ...as the X1 & X2 are more for the "DINKs" crowd. At least their overall model lineup is less confusing than that of MB.
The point of the sports suspension is that you can drive it like you drive a normal car otherwise you would need to be more cautios if you need faster turns for example you can overtake with more confidence. Also it gives better clearance over obstacles but luxury cars are not for off road adventures. On country roads it’s so stiff almost like only the wheels dampens the ride
I actually prefer this over the X3. More aerodynamic, interesting, and only a tiny bit smaller boot. It's a shame there is no electric / hybrid option though.
That Hitchcock Vertigo dolly zoom at 0:32. Nice.
Can you review the Toyota Four Runner Trd Pro? It seems like the reviews are all over the place. Consumer reports gave it horrible scores, KBB liked it, etc. My question is to see if it’s a good vehicle, that will last for a long time and that it is enjoyable to live with as a daily driver. Thanks
