BMWintroducedCSmodification of the currentM3. The successor is lighter, more powerful, and has the option of all-wheel drive.

Engineers fromBMWMhave massaged the 3.0-liter "S58" twin-turbo engine to unlock 543 horsepower, while the torque is the same as the Competition version - 650 Nm. The weight has been reduced by 34 kg, thanks to a plastic diet reinforced with carbon fiber. Carbon has been used for the front hood, front splitter, air intakes, side mirror caps, rear diffuser, trunk spoiler, and not least - the roof.

The exhaust system is titanium. The previously releasedM4 CSLwent one step further by removing the rear seats, but this would clearly not make sense in this case, with a four-door car.

With the help of the added power, theM3 CSsprints to 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds, and the electronically limited top speed is 303 km/h.

Inside, the electrically and heated carbon front seats have illuminated "CS" logos and Merino leather with red Mugello accents. Finishing touches are the door sill plates with the "M3 CS" emblem, an Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel, and the familiar M colors decorating the seatbelts.

With sizes of 275/35 ZR19 at the front and 285/30 ZR20 at the rear, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires are a free option for the forged wheels, available in matte black or gold bronze.

BMWwill produce a limited number ofM3 CS, but for now it does not disclose exactly how many. Our logic suggests that they will be fewer than the exclusiveM4 CSL, of which only 1,000 units are being produced for the entire world.
