More powerful than the Competition: 2024 BMW M3 CS unveiled

Published

on

BMW has unveiled the 2024 BMW M3 CS, which sets itself apart from the rest of the lineup with increased power.

More powerful than the Competition: 2024 BMW M3 CS unveiled

BMW retuned the 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged CS inline-six engine to produce 40 horsepower more than the Competition’s 503 horsepower. (and 70 more than the standard 473 hp BMW M3). As a result, the car produces 543 hp. Much of the extra power is the result of increased engine boost pressure. Torque remains the same in both versions at 649 Nm.

The engine mounts are significantly stiffer to create a more rigid connection between the engine and the vehicle structure, similar to the M4 CSL. At the same time, the manufacturer warns that noise and vibration will be more pronounced.

The BMW M3 CS 2024 is equipped with an eight-speed automatic transmission with a rear-shift all-wheel drive system. The M Setup menu allows drivers to switch from xDrive 4WD settings to 4WD Sport, which sends even more engine torque to the rear wheels. Drivers can disable stability control and activate 2WD mode, which sends power directly to the rear wheels. BMW claims the new M3 CS hits 60 mph in 3.2 seconds. Top speed is electronically limited to 302 km/h (with M Driver package).

BMW uses a lot of carbon fiber reinforced plastic. The roof, hood, front splitter, front air intakes, exterior mirror housings, rear diffuser, rear spoiler, center console, paddles and interior trim strips are made from lightweight material. Even the titanium rear muffler fitted to the CS exhaust saves over 4kg compared to the stock system.

Power and heated seats are optional on the M4 CSL but are standard on the M3 CS. The seats are upholstered in Merino leather with distinctive contrast stitching. Also, unlike the CSL, the CS has rear seats.

BYD is going to beat Toyota and Volkswagen by offering modern cars at very low prices. According to Bloomberg, the Chinese automaker has reduced prices on more than 100 of its electric and hybrid models.

For example, BYD’s new generation-changing Seagull hatchback now costs less than $10,000, while the manufacturer’s best-selling electric sedan, the Qin Plus, costs less than $11,000.

BYD announced the beginning of an era called “electricity is cheaper than oil”, when hybrid and pure electric models become as affordable as traditional models with internal combustion engines, or even cheaper.
