“Pour one out for the Z4, as BMW’s roadster won’t see another generation, battery-powered or otherwise. Nor will Munich add a coupe body style to the Z4 line (à la last year’s Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este concept, pictured) as a final hurrah for the slow-selling model.

The 8-series coupe and convertible will likely expire as well, with insiders telling us the next-generation car is due to survive strictly in four-door Gran Coupe form. We wager that the next 8-series will spawn a battery-*electric i8 equivalent too.”

A few years back we were told everything would be electric by 2030. Also hate the lazy writing calling it a ”slow-selling model.”

Agreed. It’s clearly a niche model. Not slow selling at all.
