There’s a brand new BMW M4 CS on the best way, in keeping with a brand new report from BMW Blog, citing unnamed sources. The high-powered coupe that’ll be primarily based on the just lately up to date M4 will allegedly debut someday in May.
All the proof factors to BMW utilizing its twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine within the coupe. It’ll supposedly produce the identical energy because the M4 CSL—543 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque—and pack the model’s eight-speed computerized transmission. Unlike its predecessor, the brand new CS may have xDrive all-wheel drive.
If the M4 CS follows the identical growth path as its M3 equivalent, we count on BMW to shave a number of kilos from the coupe’s curb weight. The firm used carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic for the roof, hood, rear diffuser, and different bits to chop 75 kilos from the sedan. We hope the coupe sees an analogous weight discount.
Previous spy photographs captured the warmer coupe out testing in public, including at the Nürburgring. BMW has hidden the up to date fascias, which included a distinguished entrance splitter and a small trunk-lid spoiler. According to BMW Blog, it’ll be primarily based on the up to date M4 that the corporate revealed earlier this yr, gaining a bunch of mid-cycle updates resembling upgraded headlights, a flat-bottom steering wheel, and new screens.
The most costly new M4 coupe, the M4 Competition xDrive, begins at $89,295, whereas the M3 CS prices practically $120,000. We count on the M4 CS to be as costly as its four-door singling. BMW will kick off manufacturing of the brand new variant in July, limiting manufacturing of the automobile to only a few thousand items.
