Yes, Cadillac has just unveiled the most powerful car in its history, the new CTS-V in 2016.
Already expected a few days before the opening of the doors NAIAS, the new 2016 Cadillac CTS-V 2016 has been unveiled just digitally in time for Christmas, just to tickle lovers super sedans during this period festivals.
Unfortunately, those of you who were hoping to change their list of gifts at the last minute will unfortunately have to wait until next Christmas, the marketing of this new V being planned in the summer of 2015. You see, the elves father Christmas are already very busy make other gifts.
And since the CTS-V has in his sights including the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and BMW M5 (Lexus will enter soon in this segment with its GS-F, and Audi RS6 does not sell its North America ), you will not be surprised to learn that the new version of the American sedan seems modeled on its Germanic rivals, starting with the power of his big supercharged V8 6.2-liter. Total this comfortable bomb: 640 horsepower and has nothing to envy the competition of 630 lb-ft. Yes, Cadillac is still raising the bar a little with respect to the power of a Cadillac model in history. The new CTS-V is THE most powerful in its history.
To transmit all this cavalry ready to reduce smoke both rear tires, the manufacturer relies on an automatic transmission with eight reports. Of course, this unit allows manual gear changes through levers located behind the steering wheel.
So to say that the manual transmission will not be part of the options, the manufacturer stating that the automatic is as effective as the dual-clutch units, but also softer thanks to the integrated torque converter. In choosing not to offer manual transmission, we understand the luxury division, purists of the third pedal is becoming more and more rare in this world.
Regardless, the new 2016 CTS-V will be faster, more skilled and efficient at the pump, although the details are not really taken into account when purchasing such a beast. As it should be, this new sedan inherits a limited slip differential, excellent well known magnetic suspension of the public and a traction management system featuring four different modes (Tour, Sport, Track and Snow) .
As you may have noticed, the body draws heavily on the very recent ATS-V presented at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The front shield is flanked by an exclusive grille, while the openings in the front bumper are larger.
To accommodate new and expanded tires, front and rear wings gained a few inches, while the 19-inch wheels very difficult to hide the huge Brembo discs that have the task of stopping the sedan daily or on the track. Carbon fiber hood has, like the ATS-V, flavor tuning with his air vent, but in contrast, this opening is needed to better cool the mechanics. At the rear, the CTS-V will be easily recognizable thanks to the dual exhausts by both sides of the rear diffuser. Note that all carbon fiber adds more fat side skirts and a spoiler on the trunk.
As for the interior, it is of course with two Recaro bucket seats in the front, these being better suited to a nervous behavior, while the assembly seems like the latest products of the brand.
The NAIAS will certainly be the place to get more details about the next generation of the 2016 CTS-V.
