    Rumorpile: Next Z4 To Be More Dynamic

    May 8, 2012

    Inside Line has learned from a couple of sources that the next generation Z4 will be a more dynamic sports car than previous generations of the two-seat roadster.

    BMW's goal is to make the next Z4 more agile and sportier to drive, but up to a point as to not upset current owners and fans.

    Design of the next Z4 will reflect this goal with the long front end losing a few inches.

    BMW will also utilize the current N20 turbocharged four-cylinder to help improve the weight distribution.

    • Further proof that Idiot47 and the lemming brigade have no idea how to live within means and now Moron47 wants to pay over 700 billion that the US does not have to buy Greenland.   Trump added $2.25 trillion to the national debt in his first year back in charge, watchdog says
    • Interesting read. A Reagan-appointed judge just shot a warning flare up into the night
    • Chinese EVs now entering the Canadian market will heat things up with all manufacturers. Competition will be fierce. And the Chinese EV makers now have both the north and south sandwiching and squeezing the detroit makers.  And we know this because of how the Chinese EV makers have made the competition in Europe fierce. While BMW is currently doing good with their EV sales in Europe, they cant slip up and lose any battles.   VAG is also holding on quite well with EVs, but they too cant slip up.  Mercedes and Stellantis are not doing well EV wise.   The way things are playing out in the usa though, if gm, ford and chrysler continue to allow the trump administration to d!c-k  around and sink EV policies to non-existence and they in turn allow themselves to delay EV development and to delay to offer compelling EVs  all three detroit area manufacturers will sink to oblivion. And that includes gm regardless if the 2nd generation of ultium would be of equal technology to the Chinese. Ultium 2.0 will not be of equal relevance...    And PRICE is a HUGE component when talking about technology development  and relevance...    South Americans where Chinese EVs are sold have already forgotten about american car makers and the same will happen to the Canadian market. Especially the way trump continues to antagonize Canada...  Canadians are already hating on americans and boycotting american products.    European car makers with their EVs in the usa market will have to adjust.  But European car makers sell expensive  EVs and americans are going down a path to where they will be waiting in line for bread like the way Russians were doing up until the 1980s and ronald reagan was poking fun at them when Gorbachev was dictator. 
    • I think this design will look better on a sedan than an SUV, but I like the direction they are going. And this is one generation, I bet the same happens to the generation after this, and we start seeing EV cost and weight going down. 10% less weight 20% lower cost 40% more energy efficient
