BMW Debuted its M4 CSL at a Car Showcase in Italy
Colin Smith — May 5, 2022 — Autos
BMW unveiled its M4 CSL motorsports-focused, high-performance vehicle at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este in Italy. The Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este is a vehicle showcase dedicated to celebrating classic, vintage, and historic vehicles. While the M4 CSL is not a vintage vehicle itself, it pays homage to one of BMW's most iconic vehicle collections, the M series. The M4 CSL celebrates the 50th anniversary of this vehicle series as it improves upon the previous models.
This motorsports-focused car reportedly features up to 540 horsepower, delivered from a twin-turbocharged S58 3.0-liter engine. These specifications would make this one of the highest-performing vehicles in its series. On the design side, the M4 CSL is more lightweight than its predecessor as it is more narrow and streamlined. The car also features a wide mesh grille for airflow and a subtle ducktail spoiler for enhanced traction.
