What’s New About the 2025 BMW M4 CS?
Exterior
The exterior of the 2025 BMW M4 CS exudes a dynamic presence, characterized by a blend of muscular contours and precision-engineered aerodynamics. At the front, the vehicle sports a frameless BMW kidney grille reminiscent of the M4 GT3 racer, highlighted by red contour lines and bespoke "M4 CS" badging. The car's aggressive stance is further enhanced by its carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) components including the hood, front splitter, and Gurney-style rear spoiler, which not only reduce weight but also improve downforce and handling at high speeds.
The M4 CS's allure is accentuated by exclusive BMW Individual paint finishes like Riviera Blue and the striking Frozen Isle of Man Green Metallic, a color exclusive to this model. These are complemented by high-performance tires wrapped around uniquely designed V-spoke forged wheels, available in Matte Gold Bronze or Matte Black, giving the car a formidable look that promises thrilling performance.
Interior
Inside, the BMW M4 CS blends luxury with a race-inspired layout. The cabin features M Carbon bucket seats which combine the rigidity needed for track use with the comfort desired for long drives. These seats are upholstered in Merino leather, featuring a bi-color Black/Mugello Red scheme with distinctive contrast stitching that extends to the rear compartment. Carbon fiber elements throughout the interior—including the centre console and shift paddles—underscore the car’s sporty DNA while contributing to its overall weight reduction.
The cockpit is driver-focused, with a standard 3-spoke M Alcantara steering wheel featuring a red centre stripe, which enhances the motorsport feel. Every detail, from the red “CS” lettering on the centre console to the M seat belts with BMW M tricolor stitching, has been meticulously designed to create an immersive and luxurious driving environment that echoes the vehicle's high-performance capabilities.
Technology
BMW Curved Display
Technologically, the BMW M4 CS is at the forefront of automotive innovation. The centrepiece is the BMW Curved Display integrated with the latest BMW Operating System 8.5. This system combines a 12.3-inch information cluster and a 14.9-inch central control display into a single unit, angled towards the driver for enhanced ergonomics. The display features M-specific graphics and is designed to support both touch and voice commands, enhancing interaction with the car’s numerous functions.
M Drive Professional system
The vehicle also comes equipped with the M Drive Professional system, which includes highly specialized features such as the M Drift Analyzer and M Laptimer, both essential for tracking performance and enhancing driving skills on the circuit. The M Traction Control system within this package offers ten finely adjustable settings for precise handling control. Moreover, the M Setup button allows drivers to customize settings for the engine, suspension, steering, and braking systems, as well as the dynamics of the M xDrive system. Additional technological enhancements include the M Mode button, which adjusts the level of driver assistance and alters the display settings in the digital instrument cluster and Head-Up Display. This feature includes settings optimized for road, sport, and track environments, allowing drivers to tailor the car’s behavior to their current driving scenario. The inclusion of advanced driver assistance systems and the integration of features like automatic climate control and seat heating into the iDrive system underscore the M4 CS's blend of high performance and high-tech convenience.
New Versions
At its launch, the BMW M4 CS will also introduce new options for customization, including the choice between standard track tires and no-cost high-performance tires, as well as the opportunity to specify ultra-track tires like the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R for optimized circuit performance. This versatility ensures that the M4 CS can be tailored to meet the exact needs of driving enthusiasts, whether they prioritize road comfort or track prowess.
Powertrain
The 2025 BMW M4 CS is powered by a highly advanced 3-litre M TwinPower Turbo inline-six engine that delivers an impressive 543 horsepower, an increase from its predecessors, largely due to refined M TwinPower Turbo technology and optimized engine management. This engine, originally developed for the rigorous demands of motorsport, features a closed-deck, sleeve-free crankcase and a lightweight forged crankshaft designed to withstand high combustion pressures and facilitate rapid power delivery. Additionally, the engine utilizes a wire-arc sprayed iron coating in the cylinder bores to minimize frictional losses, enhancing efficiency and performance.
The engine's peak torque of 479 lb-ft is accessible from as low as 2,750 rpm up to 5,950 rpm, ensuring robust power delivery across a broad rpm range. This formidable engine is mated to an 8-speed M Steptronic transmission equipped with Drivelogic, which offers three selectable modes to tailor shift dynamics from smooth cruising to aggressive track driving. Power distribution is masterfully handled by the M xDrive all-wheel-drive system, which uses an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch to variably distribute torque between the front and rear axles, optimizing traction and handling. This setup is complemented by the Active M Differential at the rear axle, which enhances the dynamic driving capabilities of the M4 CS, especially when navigating corners or performing high-speed maneuvers.
