The new BMW X4 M has been spied testing once again.

Spy photographers have caught the new BMW X4M testing in Germany again but unfortunately, it’s wearing the same amount of camouflage as the last time we saw it. We do manage to get a better look at the upcoming crossover’s front end, sporting an aggressive bumper and large air intakes. Our photographers also point out there are large intercoolers lurking behind either intake on the corners of the bumper.

Like all M models, the X4M prototype is wearing sportier wheels and tires, larger brakes, and cross-drilled rotors, as well as the large quad exhaust tips in the rear.

The BMW X4M will feature the German automaker’s new S58 engine, a 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six powerplant that is said to produce at least 450 hp in the upcoming X3M and X4M models. Production for the X4M is expected to begin at BMW’s Spartanburg, South Carolina plant in the first half of 2018.
