In addition to an engine output of up to 450 hp (depending on the version), the racing car has motorsport-specific driving aids such as ABS and DSC, a mechanical limited-slip differential with pre-load and separate cooling, as well as specially manufactured drive shafts and a carbon roof. For use as a safety car in MotoGP™, the BMW M2 CS Racing only had to be modified in a few areas, including the installation of light bars and front flashers. The livery of the new BMW M2 CS Racing MotoGP™ Safety Car is a reference to the 50th birthday and is based on the anniversary logo of BMW M GmbH.
The BMW M fleet for the MotoGP™ in the 2022 season will be completed by the BMW M3 Competition Safety Car, the BMW M4 Competition Safety Car, the BMW M5 CS Safety Car, the BMW M8 Competition Gran Coupé Safety Car and the BMW X5 M Competition Medical Car and two BMW M 1000 RR Safety Bikes. There is also the all-electric BMW i4 M50 Safety Car, which is leading the field in the FIM Enel MotoE™ World Cup, the electric motorcycle racing series as part of MotoGP™.
