Online, February 21, 2012 (Newswire.com) - BMW is proud to announce the arrival of the 2012 BMW Z4 to its showroom floor. This luxury sports car offers its owners convenience, performance, and safety features that make it the high-quality vehicle that it is known for being.

The 2012 Z4 comes standard with behind-the-seat storage that is perfect for fitting items such as a briefcase or handbag. Optional through-load storage allows you to fit longer items that are used for fun weekend trips. The 2012 Z4 also comes with the first-ever retractable hardtop in BMW Roadster history. Taking just 20 seconds to open up, the retractable roof increases ease of entry for both driver and passenger and it also provides 40% more glass than previous models, providing more space and improved visibility. Additional convenient features of the 2012 Z4 include an elaborate music and communication system and the iDrive system with optional navigation system.

BMW provides plenty of equipment to make the 2012 Z4 a high-performing vehicle. The 2012 Z4 comes standard with a powerful 4-cylinder engine that produces 240 horsepower. This engine is light, and more fuel efficient than other vehicles in its class. A 6-speed transmission comes standard with the 2012 Z4; however a 6-speed STEPTRONIC automatic transmission is available in the sDrive30i. The 2012 Z4 also comes with BMW-approved cold weather tires and a multi-link rear suspension to provide more comfort, handling, and better fuel consumption than the competition.

While BMW offers plenty of convenient and high-performance features, it does not sacrifice safety in the 2012 Z4. All-season traction allows for better stability and control while driving on treacherous road conditions. This system continuously processes data from the anti-locking wheel-speed sensors, seamlessly providing optimum control.
