6. Why is BMW Ending the Z4?
BMW cites multiple reasons:
1️⃣ Declining global roadster demand
Convertibles and small roadsters have seen declining sales for nearly a decade. times.motormitra.in
2️⃣ Shift toward SUVs & EVs
Market priorities have changed — buyers prefer crossovers/SUVs or performance EVs. motormitra.in
3️⃣ Shared platform ending
The Z4 shares its platform with the Toyota GR Supra, which is also ending production. motormitra.in
4️⃣ Realignment of BMW Sports Line-up
BMW now focuses on electrified “i” performance models and the M Division.
In short, roadsters are no longer a mainstream segment — making the Z4’s exit inevitable. Auto.MotorMitra
7. Will Final Edition Come to India?
Most probably NO.
Why?
- Z4 already sells here as a CBU import, and sales are niche.
- Limited production makes allocation heavily EU/US-focused.
- BMW India hasn’t indicated any special batch.
So Indian customers may not get the Final Edition officially. Auto.MotorMitra
8. Collector Value & Future Outlook
The Z4 Final Edition is highly likely to become collectible due to:
- Limited run
- Final year of production
- Matte Black factory paint
- Straight-six engine layout
- Last BMW roadster of the modern era Auto.MotorMitra
Enthusiasts are already predicting rising resale values after 2028. motormitra.in
