A charged BMW M4 CSL 2022 is presented. Features of the update, technical characteristics, parameters, equipment, and photos are revealed. The article’s end is a video review of the BMW M4 CSL 2022.
Charged and sported versions of cars always attract a lot of attention. One such example was the BMW M4 CSL 2022 coupe. Until recently, or rather, before the official premiere, BMW did its best to avoid talking about the new M4 CSL coupe and how fast it was according to Nurburgring tests. Today’s most record-breaking lap times belong to Porsche, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz.
Still, BMW will likely appear on the list. According to the press release, the lap at the Nordschleife, which is a distance of 20.832 kilometers, close to the Nürburgring, showed a time of 7 minutes and 20.207 seconds. This is a direct indicator that the new BMW M4 CSL can become a serious competitor for other companies.
According to the manufacturer, only 1,000 copies of the charged BMW M4 CSL 2022 will be produced. The starting price in Germany will be 165,200 euros. As for the measurements on the Nordschleife, it is still difficult to say whether this is a little or a lot. The classification of Nurburgring records forbids making direct comparisons, which of course, BMW took advantage of. The new charged BMW M4 CSL is more a sports car than a leader in the race. The record for today belongs to the Porsche 991 GT2 RS, the figure of which was 6 minutes and 43.3 seconds.
If we consider the fact that the new BMW M4 CSL is a stretched three-ruble note, then it can be attributed to mid-size sports cars. Then yes, the record will occur because today in this class, the best indicator was assigned to the Jaguar XE SV Project 8 – 7 minutes and 23.164 seconds. As for the CSL prefix in the title, it stands for Competition, Sport, Lightweight. Engineers say that this is a continuation of the previously known model BMW 3.0 CSL E9, released in the 70s.
The modern new model BMW M4 CSL largely repeats its predecessor three. The car received a rough aerodynamic body kit, although not as pronounced as that of a three-ruble note. The trunk got a famous ducktail, and the front optics received yellow LED daytime running lights. To reduce the weight of the new M4 CSL, the manufacturer made many parts from carbon fiber.
For example, a roof, a front splitter, a body of side rear-view mirrors, and a central body tunnel were made from such material. In total, this reduced the total weight by 11 kilograms. In addition, the manufacturer removed the excess noise insulation and installed a lightweight titanium exhaust. This also reduced the overall weight by 19 kg. You can list those details that reduce the car’s weight and improve dynamic performance for a very long time. The weight of the new BMW M4 CSL was reduced from 1725 to 1625 kg.
Under the hood of the new BMW M4 CSL, 2022 will offer in-line 6-cylinder petrol, turbocharged engine with a volume of 3.0 liters. A series of the S58 unit, which received increased boost pressure, 2.1 bar instead of 1.7. Reliability adds a lightweight forged crankshaft and engine mounts with increased rigidity. All this in total made it possible to increase the unit’s power from 510 to 55 horses, while the maximum torque remained the same – 650 Nm.
In tandem with the engine, the manufacturer will install an 8-speed automatic. For the BMW M4 CSL, the transmission will receive reinforced bearings and an improved gearshift system. Only the rear wheels will drive. According to the company, the BMW M4 CSL will be able to overcome the first hundred on the speedometer in 3.7 seconds and accelerate to 200 km / h in 10.7 seconds. The maximum speed will be limited to 307 km / h, but most likely, this is not the limit for such characteristics.
European dealerships have already started accepting pre-orders for the new BMW M4 CSL 2022. Deliveries of the first live copies are expected in July 2022.
