The verdict

What's good

Supercar-rivaling pace wrapped in a practical five-door body
Cargo floor is flat and wide enough for full-size luggage
xDrive all-wheel drive makes full power usable year-round
Interior quality and driving feel leagues above rival sport wagons

What's not

Firm M-tuned suspension punishes broken urban pavement noticeably
iDrive menus require deliberate learning before they feel intuitive
High-performance brake consumables are expensive to replace at intervals

The engine

B58

3.0L Turbo I6

The B58 is BMW's celebrated single-turbo straight-six — buttery smooth and effortlessly torquey, delivering power in one seamless, silken surge to redline.

Heir to a BMW inline-six bloodline running back to 1933, the B58 belongs to the modular B-series family and is so over-built it's become a tuning and engine-swap legend.

Tuners regularly push the B58 past 600 hp on its stock internals.
Toyota chose the B58 to power the latest Supra.
