BMW has dropped a new gallery of the
exciting 2020 M2 CS being driven at the Sachsenring in Germany, showing its
latest sports car in all of its glory. The new BMW M2 CS was first unveiled in
November last year at the Los Angeles Auto Show. It sits above the M2
Competition in the range and is powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged
six-cylinder engine pumping out 444 HP and 550 Nm of torque.
Being the driver’s car that it is, the M2
CS is available with either a six-speed manual transmission or a seven-speed
dual-clutch, both of which send power to the rear wheels courtesy of an Active
M Differential. The stick shift model has an official 0-96 km/h time
of 4.0 seconds and continues through a top speed of 280 km/h. By
comparison, the M2 CS with its dual-clutch hits 60 mph in 3.8 seconds and has
the same top speed.
As the M2 CS is the most track-focused
variant of the compact sports car, BMW has also ensured it can brake just as
well as it can accelerate. Consequently, it features six-piston calipers up
front with 400 mm discs while at the rear are four-piston calipers
with 380 mm discs. Owners can opt for the available M Carbon Ceramic
Brakes.
BMW intends on building just 2,200
examples of the M2 CS worldwide and it is not cheap. In the United States,
prices start at US$ 83,600 excluding a US$ 995 destination fee, making it almost US$ 25,000 more expensive than the regular M2 Competition
