The all-new BMW Z4, now in it's third generation was
showcased a few months ago and is quite the looker. BMW's two seater sports car
has stayed true to its roots with a front engine, rear wheel drive layout and
the older second generation car did quite well in India when it was launched
back in 2009. And now, the new generation BMW Z4 has been spied in India
wearing heavy camouflage. The new BMW Z4 is slated to be launched in India next
year and will possibly undergo type approval and homologation in the country
and will be priced around the Rs. 1 Crore mark.
While there are various different engine options
that will be available on the Z4 in the international market, judging from the
variant spied here, the one to make it to India will most likely be the Z4
M40i. The The BMW Z4 M40i makes 340 bhp of peak power from its 3-litre, twin
turbo 6-cylinder engine and can get from 0-100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds.
Top
speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h. This is also the launch edition of
the Z4 globally and features a sports suspension with electronically controlled
dampers, M-Sport brakes and an electronically controlled M-Sport differential
in the rear mounted transmission. The car also has 50-50 weight distribution.
