When BMW introduced the new Z4 roadster this year, the automaker stated that unlike the last generations, there would not be an M version of the new Z4. At launch Z4 buyers could choose between the sDrive30i or sDrive35i models. Well BMW has just announced the addition of the new sDrive35is model for the 2011 model year.
The 2011 Z4 sDrive35is is based on the sDrive35i with its twin turbocharged 3.0l inline six-cyl engine. But in the sDrive35is the engine features increased air intake flow and increased boost pressure to release more power. The horsepower rating has been bumped up to 335 and torque is now at 332 lb-ft. The Z4 sDrive35is can reach 0-60 mph in 4.7 seconds and a top speed of 155 mph. The more powerful engine is mated to a standard 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
The Z4 sDrive35is also comes standard with the M Sports Package including the M Aerodynamics Package and adaptive M Suspension, which lowers the ride height by almost 0.4 inches.
The 2011 Z4 sDrive35is will arrive in spring 2010.
