2024 BMW Z4 Convertible Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
The 2024 BMW Z4 is a rear-wheel-drive two-seat roadster that is available in two trim levels: sDrive30i and M40i. The sDrive30i is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 255 horsepower and 294 lb-ft of torque. The M40i comes equipped with a turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder with 382 hp and 368 lb-ft. An eight-speed automatic is standard. Keep reading for a breakdown of the Z4's most significant standard and optional features.
Which Z4 trim does Edmunds recommend?
While the base sDrive30i will likely satisfy most drivers, we recommend stepping up to the M40i. In addition to a big increase in power, you also get a sportier suspension and an upgraded rear differential and brakes for a more complete performance package befitting a BMW roadster.
