Rendered Speculation: BMW Z4

This rendering once again shows us how the rear of the forthcoming Z4 may appear. It has the reversed shoulder line as we had discussed in the past as well has the hard lines from the front. BMW’s use of design cues from the CS and also the GINA concept are apparent in the overall style of this car.

Sources have indicated that the DCT transmission will undoubtedly appear in this car (as can be seen in some spy shots) as well as advanced suspension technologies. The name of this car is still up for debate and there has been some indication that not unlike the “X” models the “Z” will now have a longer badge and name; “sDrive” being one such possibility.

BMW will be putting a lot of effort into making this version of the Z4 return to a sportier more performance driven car. We are excited to see some of these renderings and like the overall look of the car. If the performance comes close to the look, BMW will once again have a winner in the “Z”. We hope to see the “concept” version this fall.

    If indeed that is accurate in it’s presentation of the design – the roof line meeting the trunk line looks fantastic. The flow from front to back looks great too! Thanks!

    How ’bout some “rendered speculation” on the Z2? :)

  • Jon

    Not a bad rendering, still prefer the one Leftlane came up with but not bad at all.

    Have been patiently been waiting for more news on this car. Think I will hold up on ordering one long enough for the M development to come out and hopefully more news on the possible Z2.

    I like the LL version better as well.

    I have not heard a single thing in the last several months on the proposed Z2. I am beginning to wonder if that 1 series hatch with the extended wheel base spied was really the 1 series testing or for the Z2… I am trying to find more info.

    Looks very Honda S2000 from the rear…

  • Barry

    Ahem…I have a Honda S2000 thank you very much. :) My next car will be a Z4 is all goes well with the performance.

    Looks good but I really don’t like the taillights. Hopefully BMW comes up with something better

    Didn’t I read that the next Z4 would be hardtop?

    Ian C.: The Z4 will be available in a hardtop convertible.

About BimmerFile

BimmerFile is dedicated to bringing you the most interesting news, links and reviews related to the BMW brand and it's vehicles.

We believe in the old school BMW ownership experience. We believe in garage nights with a six pack and some friends. We believe in 2002s, in E30 M3s and E34 540s with the 6 speed. We believe in progress in both design and engineering but we haven't lost sight of what made the brand and its products great all those years ago. And yes, we believe in the manual transmission.

We long for the days of the wave and for the days of roll-up windows. Yet we love the gadgets on the inside and the xenons on the outside.

In short, we can't get enough of BMWs. This is BimmerFile.
