BMW listened to its customers and introduced a six-speed manual version for the 2025 Z4 M40i. Besides the new transmission, the car also came with several other improvements.

BMW has a long history of making roadsters all the way back to its roots. This is why it continued to make roadsters for driving pleasure. In 2018, the new generation of the Z4 was launched. Unlike the previous generation, which was available with a retractable hard-top, the new generation is available only as a roadster. Those who want a coupe will have to buy the 2018 Toyota Supra, which is almost identical but it has a fixed top.

The second generation of the Z4 was introduced in 2009 and it was followed by a mid-life cycle impulse (LCI) in 2013. Along with some aesthetic changes, a new engine was introduced, while the other existing ones were upgraded to Euro 6 pollution norms.

With the first generation launched in 1994, BMW renewed the interest in the 2-seat performance convertibles.

With an exterior look created by a Danish designer, the Z4 was fun to drive and affordable compared to other competitors in its class.

With a long history of producing open-top sports vehicles, BMW introduced the M-badged version of the Z4 Roadster in 2006, re-igniting competition in this segment.

The BMW Z4 arrived in 2002 to replace the BMW Z3 introduced in 1995. At first, the Z4 was only available as a roadster, however, in 2006, the German producer launched the coupe version.
