The BMW M4 CS is now available in India starting price of Rs 1.89 crore (ex-showroom). Positioned higher than the M4 Competition, the M4 CS (Competition Sport) boasts multiple mechanical enhancements that enable it to accelerate even further. The first BMW CS model to be introduced in India is the M4 CS.
BMW M4 CS: Exterior, Interior Design
The M4 CS has daytime running lights that are tinted yellow, in contrast to the M4 Competition. Bronze wheels and a crimson outline are elements of the kidney grille. There is a dedicated M Mode button on the center console, and M-specific graphics are displayed on the head-up display. A separate M-specific Setup button on the central console offers instant access to the chassis, engine, all-wheel drive, steering, and brake settings.
In addition to the optional flat-bottom Alcantara M steering wheel seen in the M4 Competition, it also retains the most recent version of the 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and the 14.9-inch BMW curved display touchscreen running the most recent version of the BMW Operating System 8.5. M Carbon bucket seats are another feature that BMW added to the M4 CS.

BMW M4 CS: Powertrain, Performance
The 3.0-liter twin-turbo straight-six engine powering the BMW M4 CS is the same engine found in the standard M4. Nevertheless, a bump in turbo boost pressure from 1.7 bar to 2.1 bar allows the engine to be modified to produce 550 horsepower, which is 20 horsepower higher than the M4 Competition. Peak torque is still between 2,750 and 5,950 rpm, or 220 rpm more than the M4 Competition, but it stays constant at 650 Nm.
To ensure that the four-wheel-drive system retains its performance over extended track sessions, BMW claims to have made various modifications to the powertrain, such as an enhanced cooling system and an increased oil supply to the clutch. Because the engine mounts are more rigid, the powertrain responds more quickly.
Thanks to a titanium exhaust silencer and several carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) parts, such as the gearbox paddles, center console, and other interior trim pieces, the CS is also 20 kg lighter. Additionally, the CS has lighter wheels—19-inch alloys in front and 20-inch ones in back.
The BMW M4 CS can now accelerate in 3.4 seconds, going from 0 to 100 km/h, a 0.1-second quicker than the M4 Competition, thanks to the modifications. Electronically, the maximum speed is restricted to 302 kph. Additionally, BMW’s Adaptive M suspension is included as standard.
