The-New-BMW-M2-CS-BMW-M3-Touring-Competition

2026.07.16

BMW Malaysia unveils the New BMW M2 CS and the All-New BMW M3 Touring Competition M xDrive at the BMW Clubhouse.

Two expressions of The Most Powerful Letter in the World arrive in Malaysia — the lightest and most powerful BMW M2 ever built and Malaysia's first-ever BMW M3 in Touring form.

Kuala Lumpur, 16th July 2026 – BMW Group Malaysia today introduced the New BMW M2 CS and the All-New BMW M3 Touring Competition M xDrive to the local market, bringing two BMW M models of compelling character and distinct purpose to Malaysian enthusiasts for the first time. Unveiled at BMW Clubhouse, taking place at Factory 19 PJ, the public is invited to experience both models firsthand from 17th to 19th July 2026, where BMW Group Malaysia's latest portfolio and innovations will be on display.

 

Benjamin Nagel, Managing Director of BMW Group Malaysia, shared: "There is a reason BMW M is known as The Most Powerful Letter in the World. It is not simply a matter of output figures or lap times, but the result of decades of uncompromising commitment to the pursuit of Sheer Driving Pleasure in any form. Today, we are proud to bring two of its most compelling expressions of BMW M to Malaysia. Each model represents a distinct dimension of what BMW M can achieve — and together, they speak to the breadth of our commitment to Malaysian driving enthusiasts.”

 

He added, "The New BMW M2 CS is a rare thing — a limited-production special model born from racetrack development, offered to those who seek the most unfiltered and focused expression of BMW M engineering available in a road car today. Meanwhile, the BMW M3 turns 40 this year — and there is no better way to mark that milestone than by celebrating it with Malaysian enthusiasts today with the All-New BMW M3 Touring Competition M xDrive. It also represents a genuine milestone for Malaysia — the first time the iconic BMW M3 has been offered here in Touring form. Both the New BMW M2 CS and the All-New BMW M3 Touring Competition M xDrive represent BMW M at its most purposeful — each exceptional in its own right, and together a statement that the spirit of BMW M is as alive in Malaysia as anywhere in the world."

 

The New BMW M2 CS enters the Malaysian market as the lightest and most powerful BMW M2 ever built — a racetrack-developed special model with limited availability that has already made its mark on the global stage, taking home the 2025 AUTO BILD Sportscars of the Year award in the "Compact Sports Cars over €50,000" category. 40 years since the BMW M3 first set the benchmark for performance saloons in 1986, the All-New BMW M3 Touring Competition M xDrive makes its Malaysian debut as the first-ever BMW M3 in Touring form to be offered in the country — a model that has already been recognised globally as the What Car? Performance Car of the Year 2025 for the second consecutive year, combining the iconic BMW M3's dynamic character with a Touring silhouette that brings a new dimension of versatility to the BMW M lineup in Malaysia.

 

The New BMW M2 CS: The Lightest, Most Powerful BMW M2 Ever Built.

The New BMW M2 CS announces its exceptional status at first glance. A model-specific kidney grille with wider air intakes and M2 CS lettering gives the front an unmistakable identity, while a front splitter on the underside of the front apron, finished in matt black, sharpens its sporting stance. Adaptive LED headlights with high-beam assistant and M Lights Shadowline complete the front end, while BMW M2 CS emblems with distinctive red outlines on the front and rear mark its exclusive character. The M high-gloss Shadowline trim extends this precision across the exterior.

 

The defining aerodynamic element of the New BMW M2 CS is its M Carbon tailgate, developed exclusively for this model. The integrated "ducktail" spoiler lip generates additional downforce and enhances driving stability at high speeds, while the tailgate's full carbon construction contributes directly to the vehicle's overall weight reduction of approximately 30 kilograms — making the New BMW M2 CS the lightest of all BMW M2 models. The M Carbon rear diffuser reinforces this focus, combining lightweight construction with a purposeful aesthetic that frames the black twin tailpipes. The M Carbon roof further reduces weight at the highest point of the vehicle. The New BMW M2 CS rides on staggered 19"/20" M light alloy wheels in star spoke Style 827 M, finished in Gold Bronze, fitted with track tyres.

 

Form follows function — and nowhere is this more apparent than inside the New BMW M2 CS, where every detail of the interior reflects its motorsport orientation. The M Alcantara steering wheel features shaped thumb rests, carbon spokes and paddles, stitching in M colours, and a red 12 o'clock marker — conveying motorsport appeal from the first touch. Meanwhile, the carbon centre console combines weight savings with visual impact, featuring a high-gloss carbon-fibre weave finish and a red CS logo. Newly designed door trim panels bearing illuminated CS lettering in a choice of colours make an unmistakable statement, complemented by further design accents on the seats, door sill strips, and centre console. M seat belts, M interior trim finishers in Carbon Fibre, and an M Anthracite headliner complete the cabin's motorsport character, while ambient lighting add a premium finish throughout.

 

The standard M carbon bucket seats provide perfect lateral support and are finished with Merino leather, illuminated CS lettering, and visible carbon surfaces. Beyond significant weight savings over conventional sports seats, the bucket seats offer compatibility with multi-point harnesses, and the removable headrest cushion accommodates a helmet — a detail that speaks directly to the racetrack DNA of the New BMW M2 CS. For everyday comfort, the New BMW M2 CS includes electric seat adjustment with memory function, automatic air conditioning, storage compartment package, through-loading system, and floor mats in velour as standard. Meanwhile, the interior and exterior mirror package, which includes rear-view mirror with automatic anti-dazzle function further enhances safety in low-light conditions. The Harman Kardon surround sound system, comprising of 14 loudspeakers and a 9-channel digital amplifier delivering 464 watts, provides exceptional audio performance throughout the interior.

 

At the heart of the New BMW M2 CS is the S58 M TwinPower Turbo inline 6-cylinder petrol engine — closely related to the P58 GT3 race engine — producing 390 kW (530 hp) at 6,250 rpm and a maximum torque of 650 Nm between 2,750 and 5,730 rpm. Power is delivered exclusively to the rear wheels via an 8-speed Steptronic Sport transmission. The New BMW M2 CS accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds. With the M Driver's Package included as standard, the New BMW M2 CS reaches a top speed of 302 km/h following a 2,000 km running-in period and completion of the running-in check.

Fuel consumption is rated at 10.0 l/100 km (WLTP), with CO2 emissions of 226 g/km.

 

Meanwhile, the CS-specific driving dynamics package centres on an Adaptive M Suspension lowered by 8 mm, with model-specific springing and damping tuning that allows the New BMW M2 CS to hug the road more closely and deliver ideal transverse dynamics on the racetrack. The M sport differential further optimises traction and handling balance, while deceleration is provided by the standard M Compound brake with high-gloss red brake calipers.

 

The New BMW M2 CS is equipped with M Drive Professional, enabling tailor-made driving dynamics through a ten-level M Traction Control system. M Mode TRACK deactivates assistance systems and reduces the display to essential driving data for an unfiltered driving experience, while the M Drift Analyser records and analyses drift angles and drift durations. Standard safety and assistance features include Driving Assistant, Parking Assistant, active pedestrian safety, and cruise control with braking function.

 

BMW Live Cockpit Professional serves as the digital backbone of the New BMW M2 CS. The Connected Package Professional integrates ConnectedDrive Services, Smartphone Integration, wireless charging tray, and Personal eSIM for seamless connectivity. Intelligent Emergency Call and Teleservices ensure continuous support on the road, while Comfort Access and BMW Digital Key provide keyless entry and seamless integration into the customer's daily life.
