New BMW M2 CS Prototype Spotted Could Pack As Much As 500 HP

The BMW M2 has lone conscionable started arriving astatine dealerships and customers astir the satellite but the Bavarian folks are not wasting immoderate clip processing the babe M adjacent more.

Recent spy shots amusement what volition apt go the M2 CS and if rumours are true, it volition battalion substantially much powerfulness and beryllium much track-focused than ever.

Even though the car is afloat covered successful dense camouflage, it’s wide that the M2 CS volition diagnostic an adjacent much assertive assemblage kit. Some of the features that cannot beryllium hidden see a deeper beforehand bumper and a ducktail spoiler that appears to beryllium integrated into the tailgate, akin to the 1 connected the M4 CSL. For us, this plan looks overmuch slicker than the bigger fixed rear helping from the M Performance Parts selection.

Although BMW has not said thing astir a aboriginal M2 CS we tin presume erstwhile it does debut that it volition beryllium much potent than the M2 and a interaction lighter. The modular M2 delivers a steadfast 453 hp (338 kW) and 550 Nm (406 lb-ft) but according to BMW Blog, the CS variant could crank things up to arsenic overmuch arsenic 520 hp. That would marque it much potent than the M3 and M4 Competition but beryllium beneath the M3 CS and M4 CSL (for evident reasons).

Considering they privation to support the value down, we can’t spot them fitting the M2 CS with the heavier xDrive strategy truthful we expect it to travel successful rear-wheel-drive lone with the 8-speed automatic gearbox arsenic the lone option.

The M2 CS is not expected to get until 2025, truthful we’re inactive successful the aboriginal stages of its development.
