The Return of the 2020 BMW Z4 Roadster
BMW first introduced this incredible sports car in 2002 with the E85 model. Crafted with a tightly structured body and a cloth top, the Z4 was a hit the moment it made its debut. The first generation ran from until 2008. From 2009 - 2016, BMW offered the second-generation Z4 Roadster, which exchanged the cloth top for a sturdier retractable hardtop, while also implementing some critical changes to the body and interior features.
From 2016-2018, BMW Z4 Roadster fans had to exist without any new updates. But in 2019, BMW officially announced the return of its highly-favored and uniquely-styled Z4.
Now, you can enjoy the return of one of the greatest roadsters of the 21st century. The 2020 BMW Z4 Roadster enters its third generation with a few changes fans of the car may enjoy. On the visual front, the retractable soft top offered in the first generation is now standard.
The vehicle also received a facelift across the headlights and grille and front bumper, creating a more commanding presence from the forward angle.
BMW also fully modernized the vehicle’s interior design and technology. A new selection of driver assistance features and infotainment technology now come standard with your 2020 BMW Z4 Roadster.
The 2020 BMW Z4 Roadster is a powerhouse on the road. Visit Capital BMW in Tallahassee, FL to experience it for yourself.
Impeccable Performance on the Road
The 2020 BMW Z4 Roadster is a hallmark of the roadster design. When compared to the 2020 Porsche 718 Boxster, the Z4 is an easy match for the 2020 Porsche Boxster, especially if you opt for the all-new Z4 sDrive M40i model.
The sDrive30i features a 2.0L TwinPower Turbo 4-cylinder engine. It delivers 255 hp @ 5,000-6,500 rpm and 294 lb-ft of torque @ 1,500-4,400 rpm. BMW also added in a twin-scroll turbocharger with variable valve control (Double-VANOS and Valvetronic) and high-precision direct injection. These specs help propel the Z4 to a jaw-dropping 0-60 in just 5.9 seconds.
If that’s not enough power or speed, the M40i model ups the specs sheet quite a bit. Under the hood of the M trim, you’ll find a 3.0L TwinPower Turbo 6-cylinder engine offering 382 hp @ 5,500-6,500 rpm and 368 lb-ft of torque @ 1,850-4,500 rpm. This 24-valve engine zooms to 0-60 in just 3.9 seconds, outmatching the 718 Boxster S by .5 seconds.
Unbelievable Efficiency and Control
Both 2020 BMW Z4 Roadster trims come with 8-speed automatic transmission, electronic throttle control, and steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters. BMW also provides its exclusive Brake Energy Regeneration technology for both the M40i and the sDrive30i.
Brake Energy Regeneration recharges your battery as you decelerate, brake, or coast, and not as you accelerate, helping to improve your performance and fuel efficiency. While a sports car built around speed, both vehicles maintain an excellent fuel economy, with an EPA-estimated 32 MPG highway from the sDrive30i trim, and 31 MPG highway from the M40i.
Beyond these standard options, the M40i is also designed with adjustable dynamic driving modes (ECO PRO, COMFORT, and SPORT). And as is standard with every BMW M trim, you’ll get access to the M Sport Differential for increased traction and control.
New Exterior Design
BMW did more than just beef up the engine specs. The exterior design received a few new touches that help give the 2020 BMW Z4 Roadster more appeal.
Almost immediately, you’ll notice the change to the face. The grille received a new mesh design, while the bumper aesthetic has been broadened to create an imposing figure. The headlight structure has been lifted higher toward the hood and slightly extended, as well. The bumper has also been updated to provide a pleasing and symmetrical visual experience that flows well from front to back.
High-Tech Interior
The 2020 BMW Z4 Roadster starts the third generation of the vehicle off with a few nice technology finishes. These include BMW's Active Protection System, Frontal Collision Warning, Daytime Pedestrian Protection, and Automatic City Collision Mitigation, among many others.
The Z4 also now features luxury-class connectivity features, including Bluetooth®-enabled communication, Apple CarPlay compatibility, and voice controls.
