The BMW M4 CS is a high-performance variant of the standard M4, designed for track enthusiasts seeking a more exhilarating driving experience. This model is part of BMW’s “CS” or Competition Sport lineup, which includes track-focused versions of other models like the M2, M3, and M5.
Key features of the BMW M4 CS include:
1. 20hp more power than the standard M4 Competition
2. 20kg lighter than the standard model
3. Laps the Nürburgring Nordschleife nearly 6.8 seconds quicker than the M3 CS
The M4 CS is equipped with an upgraded version of the M4’s twin-turbo 3.0-liter straight-six engine, delivering a peak power of 550hp and 650Nm of torque. The engine has been optimized for track performance, with improvements to the cooling system and oil supply to the clutch.
In addition to the increased power, the M4 CS features carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) components and a titanium exhaust silencer, reducing weight by 20kg. This weight reduction, combined with the enhanced performance of the engine, results in quicker acceleration times and improved handling.
The chassis of the M4 CS has been fine-tuned for better steering precision and wheel control, with stiffer springs and anti-roll bars. The stability control system has also been recalibrated to allow for more dynamic driving without intervention.
The M4 CS comes with staggered lightweight wheels and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, providing optimal grip and performance on the track. The distinctive design features yellow-tinted daytime running lights and unique paint finishes, setting it apart from the standard M4.
While the BMW M4 is available in India, the arrival of the M4 CS in the market remains uncertain. For now, enthusiasts can enjoy the updated M4 and look forward to the possibility of experiencing the track-focused M4 CS in the future.
