The Fastest Compact Car on the Nürburgring
The new BMW M2 CS has set a new standard in performance by completing the legendary Nürburgring-Nordschleife in just 7:25.5 minutes—making it the fastest compact car ever on this demanding track. This record-breaking lap, driven by BMW M engineer Jörg Weidinger, beats the previous best time for the segment by eight seconds and showcases the M2 CS’s race-ready capabilities.
Precision Engineering Meets Raw Power
Powered by a 530 hp six-cylinder engine with BMW M TwinPower Turbo technology, the M2 CS delivers blistering performance with enhanced agility and handling. Model-specific components like adaptive M suspension, M compound brakes, and lightweight construction using carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) contribute to its superior dynamics. The result: a high-performance driving experience that excels on both road and track.
A Milestone for BMW M
More than just a fast car, the M2 CS represents decades of BMW M innovation and testing at the Nürburgring. Built in limited numbers at BMW’s San Luis Potosí plant in Mexico and launching in late summer 2025, the M2 CS will be available in Germany. Its record time at the Nürburgring continues the legacy of BMW M's dominance in performance engineering and motorsport heritage.
