Na wah o! BMW just drop new bomb for motor market as dem unveil 2026 M2 Competition Series (CS). E be like say dis car na serious athlete wey don put on plenty muscle, but no vex, manual gear no dey for this one. E better say we get power!
Since 2016, M2 don dey shine like star among sports car lovers. E dey cute, just over nine feet long, but make nobody fool you, e be like small lion on the road! Dis latest version don upgrade wit powerful twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine wey dey produce 523 horsepower and 479 foot-pounds torque. This one na 50 hp more than the regular M2, and 79 hp more than previous generation M2 CS. No be small dey difference, abi?
You dey feel the speed? This new M2 CS fit carry you from zero to 60 mph in just 3.7 seconds, wey na 0.4 seconds faster than standard M2. Even top speed join, e dey reach 188 mph, wey be 11 mph faster than base model wey carry M Driver’s package. Chai! E no be joke o! (If you fit catch the speed limit, make I know.)
As if say na wa o for manual transmission lovers, dis car no carry am inside. E come with automatic gearbox wey get eight-speed, wey dey send power direct to rear wheels. Some pipo fit vex say dem wan control the gears, but with all this power, who need am? E be like say BMW wan satisfy performance lovers instead.
Weight matter still dey for the gist. Dis M2 CS dey weigh 3,770 pounds, wey be 44 pounds lighter than standard automatic M2. Thanks to carbon-fiber parts and forged wheels, dis one fit balance power and weight well well. Suspension don also receive fine tuning to match all dis new power wey dem pile on top.
No let the looks deceive you, M2 CS no be just sharpened M2. E dey come with fresh sculpted bodies and carbon-fiber panels wey dem use for roof, mirror caps, and rear diffuser. If you see am, e go make your heart dey dance. (E dey show say money no dey waste for design.)
For pocket matter, you fit prepare your wallet well because dis M2 CS go cost you $99,775 (after destination), when e land for sale later this year. Standard 2026 M2 price no don land yet, but e dey expected to be around $30,000 cheaper. Even though na wah for price, e still beta pass M4 CS wey dey start from $124,675. No be small money o!
So, if you wan get dis ultimate driving experience, just be ready for how e go empty your bank account. And if you dey feel say e for better if manual dey inside, well, sometimes life no too sweet like dat. But for now, we go just dey enjoy the ride! Cheers to new cars!
