2014 BMW Z4: BMW has never really been known for its sports cars, and history tends to agree. The Z3 and its successor, the Z4 aren’t big sellers for BMW. The Bavarian company hopes to rectify this with the planned introduction of the BMW Z2. It will be the brand’s entry level sports car, sitting beneath the Z4, which has grown larger, heavier and more expensive over two generations. More importantly, the Z2 will be designed as a simple, lightweight roadster, with a soft top instead of the Z4’s folding hard top.
BMW wanted to fill a niche currently dominated by the Mazda MX-5, which single handedly revived the small roadster segment. It is still unclear whether the car will be rear-wheel or all-wheel driven. According to our source at CAR, BMW is exploring both options. If the Z2 is to be underpinned by the new 1-Series UKL 1 platform, it will likely have power sent to all four wheels. By utilising an existing platform, BMW will be able to bring the car to the market earlier, around the 2nd quarter of 2014.
