Soon a four-cylinder engine on the BMW Z4

BMW plans to replace the inline 6-cylinder 204 hp entry-level roadster to its downsized by a block of only four cylinders by the end of the year.
Currently consists of four models, all with a straight six engine, the range of the BMW Z4 will soon evolve to accommodate a four-cylinder engine. This operation downisizing, announced on Twitter by our American colleagues of Automobile Magazine, would be to the detriment of the entry-level version sDrive23i, which would thus lose its 6-cylinder 204 horsepower.

The new block should not be less powerful. It will therefore comprise at least 200 horsepower. The operation could take place in the year, perhaps for the Frankfurt Motor Show scheduled for the fall.

As iconic as it is, if confirmed, this decision is not a real surprise, BMW is already on its way of downsizing for many other models. So will the M5 does the V10 to V8, the future will host a series does a 3-cylinder gasoline engine and four cylinders will they be produced in collaboration with PSA.
