Following the pricing for the Z4 M40i ($64,695 including the $995 destination charge), another leak regarding the G29 reveals how much the sDrive30i costs in the United States of America. More to the point, the four-cylinder turbo with 255 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque kicks off at $50,695.
Over in Europe, the German roadster built in Austria by Magna Steyr will also be available as the sDrive20i, packing 194 horsepower and 236 pound-feet from a downtuned version of the 2.0-liter engine. As far as performance is concerned, these two hit 62 mph in 5.4 and 6.6 seconds, respectively.
Top speed is limited to 149 mph (240 km/h) in the case of the sDrive20i while the sDrive30i levels up to 155 mph (250 km/h). For the sake of comparison, the M40i is much obliged to hit the magical mark in 4.5 seconds. As you would expect from a non-M car, the maximum velocity of the M40i is capped at 155 mph by the electronic nannies.
Coming courtesy of Bimmerpost, the ordering guide for the sDrive30i reveals one standard color, a non-metallic finish by the name of Alpine White. Customers can upgrade the two-seat sports car with the help of no less than six optional packages, as follows: Convenience, Driving Assistance, M Sport, Premium, Executive, and Track Handling.
Those who want even more can go through the standalone options list, which includes 19-inch V-spoke ferric grey wheels, a heated steering wheel and seats, Park Distance Control, Active Cruise Control, Wireless Charging, and Extended Shadowline Trim. In other words, a well-equipped Z4 sDrive30i surpasses the starting price of the Z4 M40i.
Sales of the sDrive30i are understood to launch in March 2019, with the M40i following in the summer. The Old Continent gets all three models from the get-go in March, all of them coming with the ZF 8HP eight-speed automatic transmission. Come January 2019, Toyota will take the veil off the Japanese half-brother of the Z4 at the Detroit Auto Show.
