They will be distinguished the same way the 4 cylinder 1, 3, and 5 series will be distinguished, and the same way the 4 cylinder X1, X3, and, in some markets, X5 will be distinguished. That is, by size and features rather than by power figures. Obviously the lighter vehicles will accelerate better than the heavier ones, so indeed the I4 powered Z2 should be a more fun drive than the I4 powered Z4. Just keep in mind that it won't have the folding hard top, it will obviously not have as much storage space, and there will no doubt be other feature differences as well.
