The new BMW M4 GTS = the fastest BMW ever to hit the road

The new BMW M4 GTS

The new BMW M4 GTS is the fastest production BMW ever, and the Bavarians will "breed" only 700 examples of this 500-horsepower monster, the most perfect M series car in history. It comes with a series of innovations, among which it is worth highlighting its "eyes", the first serial OLED headlights, and the water injection system into the intake channel. With the M4 GTS, the Germans mark the 30th anniversary of the M3 model. Although it is a "wild animal" (bred for the runways), you can also have it as a "pet" (read: for driving on normal roads).

BMW is with the new model M4 GTS set his bar a little higher as he made his own the fastest production model ever. The Bavarians will let him off the chain in the spring of 2016, but it will also be able to thunder on normal roads. It is a limited series 700 vehicles, and BMW was generous not only with the engine it provided 500 horses/386 kilowatts and 600 Nm of torque, but also in the use of carbon fiber (it complements the seats covered with Alcantara, it strengthens the diffuser, spoiler and many other plastic parts), so its dry weight is only 1510 kilograms.

The protruding rear spoiler is one of the hallmarks of the new M4 GTS.
The protruding rear spoiler is one of the hallmarks of the new M4 GTS.

All this allows it to run from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds, and he gets out of breath only at speed 305 km/h (it completes the Nürburgring lap in 7 minutes and 28 seconds, beating the classic M4 by almost half a minute). They tame the engine power ceramic brakes, namely it has as many as six "tamers" in the front and four behind the rear wheels. Power 3.0 twin turbo V6 engine transports on wheels 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox with the quick start program.

The new BMW M4 GTS is BMW's first production model by injecting water into the cylinders (the system absorbs and then liquefies water from the air and disperses it with gasoline under high pressure into the intake ducts), which takes care of cooling its hot heart (read: engine), thereby increases power and cuts consumption at 100% load. It adorns it almost perfectly ratio 3.0 kg/HP, and the sporty M4 GTS put on prestigious ones Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires (front 19-inch 265/35, rear 20-inch 285/30). At the same time, it should be added that the price for water injection is a multi-liter container in the trunk, which allows "autonomy" for a few stops at the gas station, but if you "torture" it on the track, it must quench its thirst at every stop. And when we're right at the track. There, the car shows not only its teeth, but also its "tongue". For even better driving characteristics, you can put a "visor" on the front mask, with the pull out the front spoiler additionally.
