BMW Z4 M 40i is best enjoyed on long drives on highways or the countryside
If
you think roadsters are out of place in India, think again. There are
at least half a dozen variants of these sporty two-seaters from
Porsche, Audi, Mercedes-Benz and Jaguar currently on sale in the
country. BMW's all-new Z4
M 40i
now joins the growing category.
The
earlier variant of the roadster from the German automaker, the Z4
(marketed as the "Landshark"), was launched a decade ago.
The new version is an expression of how the BMW interprets driving
experience for car-lovers who want precious little to come between
them and the tarmac.Slung super low, but with a ground clearance that handles everyday streets with ease, the Z4 M 40i is strong and sinewy with a torso as muscular as it is aerodynamic. The design, which includes an aggressive, large kidney grill set in a metallic honeycomb façade, is reminiscent of Jaws, the Bond villain in Moonraker.
Inside the cockpit, the car is minimalistic but equipped with the typical Bimmer accoutrements that include entertainment and different driving modes. One could argue that the space could have been extended, given that the compartments are restricted to a couple of coffee holders, a glove box and a cubby hole under the radio for stashing keys, glares and the wallet.
