What Does CS Stand For On BMW Cars?

BMW The CS identifier, affixed to a BMW M model's name, signifies that the vehicle is of a higher performance level, even when compared to BMW's "normal" M performance models. The CS stands for Competition Sport, a name that was first introduced with the release of the 460-horsepower BMW M4 CS F82 back in 2017. What all CS models have in common is limited production. Since then, a total of eight CS models have been released, with the most recent being the BMW M2 CS G87. These cars trace their lineage back to the 1988 BMW M3 Evolution II, a higher-powered and lighter-weight model of that earlier M3, one of the classic '80s sports cars that have stood the test of time .
