The following report BMW claims the turbocharged 2.0-liter makes 240 hp at 6500 rpm and 260 lb-ft of torque at a low 1250 rpm. Given Fewer That it has two cylinders, it, AOS also shorter, and the majority of the engine, AOS mass sits behind the front-axle line.

The transplant has changed the Z4, AOS character. It, AOS a little more ill-tempered, a little Louder, a bit more Likely to spit in public. The engine isn, AOT rough, but there is a slight coarseness from the engine and exhaust under stress. Whereas BMW, other AOS Their turbo-boosted engines whine keep to a minimum, as if They were the resource persons embarrassed by it, step into the boost in the Z4, and the turbocharger whistles proudly.
