I have an X4 MC on order (status 112) and wanted to make sure the trunk floor wouldn't be raised when I opted for the Space-Saver Spare (as was the case for some X3's a couple of years ago).


I wrote the BMW Genius and here is their answer:
Qte
The trunk volume for the 2022 BMW X4 M is 23.7 ft³. This does not change with the option for the space-saver spare.
Unqte


The Space-Saver Spare (order code 300) is a free option on the X3/X4 M, as is the optional Mobility Kit. The latter obviously deletes the spare.

I think this is wrong for the US X3 anyway and I assume applies to the X4.

The spare introduces a hump.

See here in the G01/G02 forum:

My X4 (no spare) has a 8cm (3") drop inside the lip. Presumably the spare raises the floor level with the lip.

my 20' x3m with spare, cargo floor is raised about 3"
brothers 22' x4m with spare, cargo floor is level with the gate threshold.

I have a 22' x3m on order with spare, expecting the cargo floor to be raised.

I stand corrected. I did not know the X4 had a flat floor in the hatch.

Took photos yesterday.

This is my brothers 22' x4m (with spare)

No point for the spare. I'd get a tow either way so. Lol.

Mine is the same. X4m load height is much higher than I expected

Now we really need to see the same pictures from a '22 X4 M without the spare. Will there be a difference?

Would be nice to see a trunk pic from a recently delivered X3M with the spare kit.

I can take a pic of my 20' x3m (with spare), but it's not recently delivered. My 22'(with spare) is scheduled for build week 21. I can post pics when I get it, but it will be a few weeks/months.

Something I did notice, they removed the latches in the trunk to fold the rear seats. My 20' has it, don't think the 22' will. Hopefully they still have the recline latches.

I have a '22 LCI F97 with the spare. The raised height has not changed from pre-LCI. Not a great picture but you get the idea.
I was lucky enough to find this one just delivered and not spoken for- I would have ordered with the mobility kit.

Thanks for confirming that the spare is still raised, I was about to regret my decision for ordering the mobility kit specifically to avoid the raised floor after reading the X4 comment above lol.

Here’s my 22 X3 MC with the spare. Sorry, my midpipe is in the back.
