CS is Coming Soon
Do you remember that gorgeous BMW CS concept that emerged a couple of months ago? Well, it now looks set to return as a production-ready successor to the 8-Series.
At the Tokyo Motor Show, BMW’s North American CEO Tom Purves announced that the company will build a production model of the CS Concept that was unveiled earlier this year. Rumour has it that the Mercedes-Benz CLS and Maserati Quattroporte-fighting CS Concept, which is expected to debut in Frankfurt next year, will most likely carry the 8-Series badge and will be the equivalent of a four-door GT.
This announcement puts an end to the reports that said a production model would never see the light of day. In fact, BMW seems exceptionally eager to build this model. “Our dealers, having seen the photos, are very excited,” Purves said. “They love it. If media and dealers like it, there’s a good chance the customers will.”
