Each BMW Z4 comes standard with a surgical 8-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters.

  255 horsepower/ 295 lb-ft of tq.
  25 mpg city/ 33 mpg highway

Interior & Tech

When it comes to interior quality, the 2025 Z4 leads the convertible segment with its premium materials, ergonomic controls, and attention to detail. Road noise is an afterthought, allowing the 24-speaker Harman Kardon audio system to work its full magic. Storage space isn’t amazing (as for every vehicle in the convertible segment), but driver and passenger room is surprisingly generous, even for drivers 6-ft tall.
