据最新报道,宝马Z4后继车型将与现行版有很大不同。将于2017年发布的2018款Z5采用宝马与丰田共同开发的运动车平台,该平台采用碳纤维结构,与宝马i3和i8差不多。新车将不再采用折叠硬顶,而是更便利的普通软顶。该车动力系统为一台2.0升四缸涡轮增压引擎,功率有141千瓦/190马力,182千瓦/245马力和201千瓦/270马力三种。另外高性能的Z5 M将搭载六缸涡轮增压引擎,功率约为317千瓦/425马力。
2018 BMW Z5 to ditch the retractable hardtop, spawn Z5 M
According to a recent report, the BMW Z4 successor will be a radical departure from its predecessor.
Set to be launched in 2017, the model will reportedly adopt the Z5 moniker and be based on the jointly-developed BMW and Toyota sports car platform. While the Automobile Magazine only says the model will ride on the joint architecture, sister publication Motor Trend says it will use a carbon fiber tub similar to the i3 and i8. Both also suggest the car could eschew its retractable hardtop for a more conventional soft top.
Power will reportedly be provided by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that has outputs of 190 bhp (141 kW), 245 bhp (182 kW) and 270 bhp (201 kW). There's also word of a high-performance Z5 M which could use a turbocharged six-cylinder engine with roughly 425 bhp (317 kW).
