Since the launched of the Water injection BMW M4 GTS in the World Championship MotoGP about a year and a half ago, car enthusiasts flooded BMW with request for the exclusive car model to be mass produce. Alas BMW head the demand and the BMW M4 GTS will probably reach production in 2019.

One of the factors limiting the performance of an engine is the high internal temperature of the propellant. If the combustion chamber (before the fuel and air burn) is at ahigh temperature, it is possible that the mixture of air and fuel will make the fuel explode and before long, can produce various kinds of damage to the engine. Water Injection is the answer to this and is the reason why the BMW M4 GTS is much anticipated.

The water injection system will help improve the BMW M4 GTS power by five percent as well as improve the fuel consumption by as much as 13 percent. Combined with the 6 cylinder turbocharging of the M4 GTS, the horsepower will increase by 49hp and will have a quite remarkable run that owners will trully enjoy.

Although the Water injection BMW M4 GTS take care to avoid such unwanted fuel explosion, we still can inject the amount of fuel at the right time where combustion would provide more performance because high temperatures are still there. This problem is even greater in engines with supercharging, since compressing the air to "meter" more quantity is heated, so that the temperature in the combustion chamber is very high before the explosion.

The solution that the BMW M4 MotoGP Safety Car presented was spraying a small amount of water into the intake manifold through injectors. With this it will achieved reduce temperatures, which can delay the injection timing and get higher performance engine. In this way, the system also reduces fuel consumption, because to get maximum benefits the car needs less fuel and lower emissions produced by combustion.

The Water injection BMW M4 GTS will have the same sporty yet elegant look it has for the mass production. It will be one of the most awaited cars for 2019.
