We covered all the difficult facts about the new M2 CS, what about something more necessary? The second generation of the Compant Compact Coupe in BMW includes a feature that has not been found in the modern models that have been moved. Well, the “advantage” may be a little extension. And here, there are luminous doors trim panels with “CS” letters.
It is connected to standard surrounding lighting, allowing the owners to change the color to admiration. Upon turning off, this section of the door panel reveals carbon structure. The M2 CS features a familiar cabin, with carbon bucket seats, but this time with luminous CS logos. To drive point point to the house, BMW also installs new entry threshold panels with a large M2 CS text in red. Other adjustments include a flat and tangerous Alcantara driving wheel for carbon fiber -reinforced plastic transformation. CFRP is also used for the central control unit.
We admit that CS lights look elegant in the dark and help distinguish between the cabin and the standard M2. It will not go long before the post -sales repeat this factory with a dedicated modification designed to the regular G87. The era of the fragmented interior is on us. But let’s be real: enthusiasts will delightly circulate this as a way to circumvent something with more materials. We are talking about a six -speed manual gearbox, which, unfortunately, does not come to M2 CS.
The M Frank Van Meel coach told us at the end of last week at Concorso D’ELEGANZA VILLA D’ASTE that the automatic transmission, which is eight -speed long, can handle the full engine capabilities. If they kept three -circles preparation, the car would have made less than 500 hp. Another future derivative of the M2 will avoid the clutch pedal, as it is difficult to imagine the long -range Xdrive pair with a stick.
This does not mean that the evidence dies. The four -wheel drive M2, next to 2026, will not replace the normal model of its gearbox. There is a good opportunity for BMW that will keep 6MT until the end of the car’s life cycle, so you still have a few years to overcome your gears.
