The DTM will introduce a new Safety Car later this season: a BMW M4 Coupé based on the production model of the M4.

The car will feature a completely new, 431-hp six-cylinder inline engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology and high-rev characteristics generates a maximum torque of 550 newton metres over a wide range of speeds.
This allows the BMW M4 Coupé to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.1 seconds.
The M4 Safety Car will use many BMW M Performance Parts.
