BMW introduces New BMW Z4 roadster in India
12 Oct 2009
The BMW Z4 Roadster was unveiled today in its petrol variant, Z4 sDrive35i, at the India Couture Week in Mumbai.
For BMW the new Z4 literally represents the re-birth of the roadster. It is the only vehicle in this segment to combine classic roadster proportions with a seating position close to the rear axle, rear-wheel drive and a fully-automatic retractable hardtop.
The appeal of this two-seater lies in its combination of elegance, agility, and supreme comfort, for those who can afford its Rs59-lakh ex showroom price tag that excludes RTO registration charges, tax, insurance, handling charges; octroi and entry tax if applicable.
Introducing the features of the new car, Peter Kronschnabl, president, BMW India, said, ''The BMW Z4 outlines an expression of joy which epitomises the qualities of the BMW brand by combining the ultimate driving experience with maximum sporting potential and distinctive design.
"More than anything the new BMW Z4 is an expression of sheer driving pleasure. With the new BMW Z4, we want to reach out to new target groups in India who appreciate a pure driving experience, high standards of elegance and value, and suitability for everyday driving and comfort.''
The car will be available in a range of six paint finishes (alpine white, black sapphire, deep sea blue, orion silver, space grey, and titanium silver) and three upholstery designs (leather kansas black, leather Kansas Canberra beige, and leather Kansas coral red).
The new BMW Z4 also comes with the optional design pure white package, that features the finest Nappa leather in ivory white and door inserts in alcantara. In addition to the six standard exterior colours, Havanna brown paintwork is also available exclusively in conjunction with the design pure white trim, which brings the unique character of the new BMW Z4 Roadster to the fore.
