The Z4 packs in enough punch for daily driving purposes and the turbocharged motor provides enough grunt, to overtake that odd car on the motorway or on the city streets.

Acceleration: BMW Z4 sDrive30i

The New Powertrain and the Chassis have resulted in significant upgrades in the performance of the 3rd Gen Z4 as compared to its predecessor. The Z4, coupled with its Launch Control system does the dash to 60MPH in just 5.2 seconds. While the Quarter mile figures haven't been released by BMW yet, we do expect them to hover somewhere between the 12.5 to 13.5 second mark.

As expected, the Porsche is the fastest convertible of the lot in 60MPH distance and quarter-mile runs. The Bimmer comes in 2nd in this respect and the Audi and the Merc stand 3rd and 4th respectively.

Ride and Handling: BMW Z4 sDrive30i

With the New Generation of the Z4, BMW has left no stone unturned in offering the best ride and handling setup for the same. The Z4 sDrive30i gets a double-joint spring strut suspension at the front and a new five-link suspension at the rear. The Rigid front suspension subframe and control arm mounting points lead to precise cornering and reduces road noise as well.

Adding to the agility is the Aluminum control arms and swivel bearings that reduce unsprung weight and offer better superb agility as well. The Lightweight Aluminum/Steel design in the rear suspension reduces the weight of the same and helps the chassis add to the 50-50 weight balance.

The 3 Spoke Sport steering with variable power assist and ratio adds to the feedback while cornering and weighs up well while doing low-speed commutes in the city. Adding to the handling package is the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) that includes Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Dynamic Traction Control (DTC), Cornering Brake Control (CBC), and Dynamic Brake Control (DBC).

Braking: BMW Z4 sDrive30i

As expected of a BMW, the 3rd Generation BMW Z4 Roadster doesn't disappoint in terms of braking performance. The Brakes on the Z4 sDrive30i allows it to stop from 60MPH to a standstill in just 113ft. The Body, however, does showcase some roll and pitch under hard braking but it's just a matter of getting used to.

The Porsche again wins the bout in terms of braking performance as it marginally beats the Bimmer in the braking performance. The Audi and the Merc again lose out to their other german adversaries in terms of braking performance.

With the Twin Turbocharged Motor, BMW has managed to achieve a good combination of performance and efficiency with the 2019 Z4 sDrive30i. The Z4's MPG figures are rated at 25MPG on the city, 32MPG on the highway, and an overall figure of 28MPG. With a fuel tank of 13.7 gallons, the Bimmer can much down 343 miles on the city and 438 miles on the highway.

While the Merc and the Porsche offer the least overall combined MPG figures, they manage to beat the Bimmer and the Audi in terms of overall range, with their massive fuel tanks. The Audi offers the least MPG figures of the lot and has the least range as well.

With a driver-focused cabin, the 2019 BMW Z4 sDrive30i, does well in offering a comfortable ride for the passengers riding in it. The Bigger dimensions allow for easy access inside the cabin. The Sport Seats on the Bimmer offer good levels of support and bolstering and come with conveniences like Heating Functionality and Power Adjust. A wide center console separates the passenger seat and the driver, with the driver's right leg brushing the same a bit more often than required.

The Soft Top on the Z4 lowers and raises under speeds of 30MPH. The Noise insulation from the outside with the top up is excellent and resembles some other BMW sedans. The only downside comes from the fact that the Bimmer can only seat 2 people.

In terms of Seating, the Mercedes-Benz C 300 trumps all of its rivals as it is the only car in this comparison that can seat 4 people. In terms of the front seats as well, the C 300 is closest to the Bimmer as well. The Audi TT comes 3rd in this list and since Porsche doesn't reveal the dimensions of its cars, we don't have much to say about the same.

The 9.9 cu. ft of cargo capacity on offer, ranks as one of the best in the segment, and a through-loading system with an integrated transport bag, adds to the convenience of storing luggage in the same. Storage spaces are available on the doors and behind the front seats while a glove box in the center console allows for storing nifty stuff.
