The top on the 2014 BMW Z4 can be dropped with a touch of a button while the car is traveling 40 kph. The whole converting process takes 19 seconds.

The sDrive 35is will be available mated to a 7-speed DCT dual clutch transmission while sDrive 28i will be mated to a 6-speed manual or 8-speed automatic.
