Nevertheless a lot has been already told about the jointly-created Z5, Motor.es reports about the creating of an entry-level Z1 Roadster and Coupe. There is no much information about the offerings, but the website tells that they will have the front-wheel drive UKL1 platform. Also it states that they will be sold with three- and four-cylinder powerplants.

The company is gossiped to work on an innovated Z3 which will become a competitor to Boxter and Cayman. The vehicle is planned to be equipped with three-, four- and six-cylinder powertrains and a new platform which it will share with the Toyota 86 of the next generation.
