While much of the Shanghai motor show is electric, autonomous or both, BMW has thundered in with one of its hardest cored coupes yet. Meet the BMW M4 CS.
Thanks to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission–sorry, no manual–BMW says the M4 CS accelerates from 0-62 mph in 3.9 seconds, on to a top speed of 174 mph.
The exterior styling reflects the track-ready nature of the M4 CS. The front and rear splitters, rear spoiler, hood and roof are all made from carbon fiber to help save some weight.
Clashing slightly with the use of lightweight materials is the still-plush interior, which gives away nothing in equipment and gains much leather and Alcantara. Expect the M4 CS to still weigh nearly 1600kg, then.
The car costs €116,900; official U.S. pricing has not been announced, but that’s approximately $125,000.
