Hit the Sport mode button and the midsize SUV takes off quickly. The vehicle reaches 60 mph in six seconds, according to BMW, a time that is becoming par for the course among premium SUVs.every place they go, suddenly noticing the dial creeping toward 70 on two-lane country roads. There’s a lot of power in there and the X4 is not afraid to show it off.
