Today, almost every new vehicle on the road has its sporty version and some of them achieve performance that was reserved for supercars just several years ago. But the real driving purists will always want a car that’s closer to the ground, a car that can provide a real feeling of the road. A roadster certainly fits the bill perfectly – it’s not only close to the ground, but it’s open, which means more of the sound of the engine and strong wind in the hair. Translate this to “more fun” and you’re on the right track.

One of the most well-known roadsters out there is the BMW Z4. This roadster is now the only two-seater in the Bavarian company’s lineup and in the latest generation, it’s tuned to provide both driver’s satisfaction and passenger comfort. This is a car that’s both fun on a twisty road and refined when cruising near the beach with the top open. And while we are at it, it is now exclusively a hardtop roadster.

 

BMW Z4 Performance

The new BMW Z4 is offered with three engines. The sDrive28i is equipped with a four-cylinder 2.0-liter turbocharged engine with 240 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. This engine has enough power to provide fast acceleration and you can certainly enjoy it on a twisty road, especially with the slick 6-speed manual gearbox. An eight-speed automatic is also available.

The sDrive35i comes with a smooth inline-6 engine, the same from a plethora of other BMW models. This 3.0-liter unit has 300 horsepower and much healthier 300 pound-feet of torque, which helps it achieve almost supercar performance. The most powerful sDrive35is model has the same 3.0-liter inline-6, but here it pumps out 335 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque with an overboost (332 without) and is the pick of the bunch if you’re serious about driving. Both inline-6 engines are equipped with the seven-speed DCT dual-clutch gearbox, that changes gears much faster than the 8-speed available in the base four-cylinder model.

 

Exterior & Interior

On the outside, the new model is still recognizable as a Z4, but now it has a longer hood, sleeker sidelines and new taillights, reminiscent of the amazing BMW 8-Series. The traditional long hood is still here, which gives the car a retro-sporty vibe that attracts attention from the environment. Overall, the 2019 BMW Z4 is one of the sexiest vehicles on the market right now.

The same can be said for the interior, which also borrows most of the design from the 8-Series. This is one of the biggest praises you can give to a new car, as the all-new design is simply beautiful – starting from the new vents, to the wide-screen infotainment and instrument binnacle that in reality is a giant screen. Materials and fit and finish are also top-notch, as expected from a BMW.

 

Conclusion

The all-new 2019 BMW Z4 brings more refinement to the already pretty sporty formula. The design remains recognizable but sexy as ever, the interior brings more style and technology, while the mechanics are the best BMW can offer right now. It’s no coincidence then that Toyota developed the new Supra on exactly the same platform the Z4 is based on.
