Ilo Ili, a member of M Flight club in Germany, just took delivery of the first model of the BMW M4 DTM Champion Edition. The special M4 model came to fruition last fall after Marco Wittmann has once again secured the DTM driverʼs title in the 2016 season finale at the Hockenheimring. To honor this success, BMW M launched the BMW M4 DTM Champion Editio, limited worldwide to 200 units and delivers a power output that has been increased by 51 kW/69 hp to 368 kW/500 hp and a maximum torque of 600 Nm, an increase of 50 Nm.
The BMW M4 DTM Champion Edition completes the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds and has a top speed limited to 305 km/h.
To achieve this remarkable performance, the M4 DTM Champion Edition features the water injection technology from the BMW M4 GTS. Cooling of the combustion chambers made possible by this technology significantly raises the engineʼs thermally-related performance limits, as the 16 percent increase in power output vs. the production model proves.
