With the BMW M4 GTS, BMW M GmbH presents a fascinating high-performance automobile that continues the tradition of legendary special models based on the BMW M3. The automobile was conceived with an eye for trailblazing technology and a keen focus on the racetrack – as demonstrated by its lap time of 7 minutes 28 seconds on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife. At the same time, it is fully road-legal. The limited production number of just 700 units worldwide enhances the exclusive nature of the BMW M4 GTS
Motorsport technology for the road: The BMW M4 GTS features the innovative water injection system that has already provided a significant output and torque boost in the BMW M4 MotoGP Safety Car. The water is injected into the plenums of the intake manifold as a fine spray. When the water vaporises, the intake air cools significantly. As a result, the final compression temperature in the combustion chamber – and therefore the engine’s tendency to “knock” – is reduced, enabling the M TwinPower Turbo inline 6-cylinder engine to use higher boost pressure and earlier injection timing. This technology ensures an increase in output and torque, while at the same time reducing the thermal stress on performance-relevant components.
The chassis, front splitter and rear wing are manually adjustable, ensuring perfect aerodynamic balance and allowing the vehicle to be adapted for both individual racetracks and for use on the road.
