New CTS-V, Our 2014 Favorites

Cadillac Makes a Fist, Calls it New CTS-V Slide Show Bonanza: Our Faves, Best-Selling, More!      NEW CARS USED CARS ROAD TESTS AUTO SHOWS FUTURE PHOTOS VIDEOS FEATURES BLOGS FORUMS WOT

2016 Cadillac CTS-V First Look Ultra-High-Strength-Steel Fist in a Velvet Glove To help dry the tears of fans mourning the loss of the CTS-V family of coupe, wagon, and sedan offerings, the new replacement sedan will be fortified with even more vitamins H and T: SAE-certified horsepower and torque ratings come in at 640 hp and 630 lb-ft, up from the outgoing supercharged 6.2-liter's 556 hp and 551 lb-ft. No row-your-own option will be offered, as the new ATS-V coupe and sedan -- both offered with a stick -- will now fill that extreme track-star niche, allowing the CTS-V to become more refined and luxurious. Hence the sole offering of a swift-shifting 8L90E eight-speed automatic. With a curb weight of 4150 pounds (6.5 lb/hp), that will help deliver 0-60-mph acceleration in an officially -- and perhaps conservatively quoted -- 3.7 seconds. Also new: This Corvette Z06-derived powertrain features an Eco driving mode that enables cylinder deactivation for tiptoeing around in dainty fuel-sipping four-cylinder mode.
