The 2020 BMW M2 CS is loaded with power and carbon fiber.BMW says the M2 CS hits 60 in 3.8 seconds and tops out at 174.One model year only (sadly) with production beginning in March.

The latest, improved iteration of BMW’s M2, the M2 CS, is here. And it brings tons of tech, carbon fiber, and (checks notes) power. Lots and lots of good old Bavarian power and torque to remind us, yet again, how the “M” in BMW stands for Motor with a capital M. Okay, it stands for “Motoren” but why get bogged down in semantics"

As BMW cars often do – quickly stop and turn, then go like blue blazes on a hot day – the 2020 M2 CS is no different.

What Engine Does The 2020 BMW M2 CS Have"

The powerplant motivating the M2 CS is the S55 unit derived from the M4 Competition. This uprated S55 is a 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder, with BMW’s TwinPower Turbo technology. The engine cranks out a very healthy 444 horsepower and 406 lb-ft. of torque. That is a lot, both for this size of engine, and the size of the car it’s stuffed into. It will add up (or all boils down to) a zero to 60 time of 3.8 seconds when mated to the seven-speed dual clutch (DCT) transmission.
If you opt for the six-speed manual, it’ll cost you a couple of tenths, at four seconds flat to 60 mph.
