The Competition is already quite the zippy sedan with a mighty 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 petrol engine that develops 625PS and 750Nm. 0-100kmph is achieved in just 3.3 seconds while topping out at 305kmph. But BMW has revealed that there's more room for improvement and has teased the spicier M5 CS for a 2021 debut.

A short teaser video reveals that the M5 CS' 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 petrol engine will now push 635PS of grunt, 10PS more than the M5 Competition. What's more is that it'll get a weight reduction of 70kg which should certainly aid its handling prowess. Expect the 8-speed M Steptronic automatic transmission and xDrive all-wheel-drive system with a choice of a 4WD, 4WD Sport and 2WD drive modes to be retained.

While the exteriors have yet to be fully revealed, the teaser video showcases some nice add-ons like gold-bronze accents around the kidney grille, motorsport-style yellow headlights, forged aluminium wheels with carbon-ceramic brakes and red calipers. The M5 CS is also shod in a nice black body shade that complements the gold-bronze accents.

Cabin shots are yet to be revealed, but it's been revealed that the M5 CS will get carbon bucket seats like the. Expect the rest of the cabin to remain relatively similar aside from 'CS' badging all over.

The BMW M5 CS will make its global debut around January 2021 with a launch expected soon after. There is currently no word as to when to the country next year.
