Z4 EOL announced. Does this include Supra?

[ScottyMemphis]

Just saw this article that BMW is killing the Z4 in 2025. Will this spell the end of Supra then as well? Thoughts?

This Supra was always planned as only a limited run through MY2026 or MY2025 (can’t remember which).

Yup. Supra is dead but it’s not really news. We all knew this would be limited run

Yes, thus why I am hoping there is a facelift before all gone.. and I'll get a white 3.0L one too.

EU they're banning gas cars much earlier than the USA, right? Makes sense they won't be doing any more ICE development for these types of cars and go EV.. and there's no EV/Hybrid Supra per Tada-san, I think I read..

I don't believe that to be the case for BMW. They certainly announced they're continuing ICE

Z4 was getting the can if it weren't for the Supra, I believe is what I had read. The sales were low for a long while.

correct, but i wouldn't use "limited run". a 6-7 year lifecycle is typical for past Z4s.

on a different note i think the only thing new here is that BMW will not be renewing the Z4 for a 4th gen.
