Sumario:We present selected measurements done with W and Z bosons detected in the CMS detector, based on samples of events collected during 7 TeV physics runs. In this talk, we discuss the measurements of the lepton charge asymmetry in the reconstructed W events decaying to a lepton and a neutrino, obtained in the electron and muon decay channels. We also report on the measurements of the differential cross section, forward-backward asymmetry and electroweak couplings of events coming from the Drell-Yan process.
