2022 BMW X4 review

With the recent introduction of the Audi Q5 Sportback, each German luxury brand offers a mid-sized 'coupe SUV'. The Audi is arguably the least sporty in both looks and drive, but it's certainly a pleasant entrant into the segment.

The Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe is at the end of its lifecycle, with a new generation set to launch in 2023, though it still has a lot to offer. It can also go toe-to-toe with the mighty M Competition in performance in GLC 63 AMG guise with its twin-turbo V8, though its successor is expected to move to a turbocharged plug-in hybrid four-cylinder.

Though less overtly coupe-like in appearance, there's also the Alfa Romeo Stelvio – again, it's a credible alternative to the X4 M Competition in twin-turbo V6 Quadrifoglio guise. Other performance-focused SUVs in this segment include the Porsche Macan, another SUV toward the end of its lifecycle.
