2016 Cadillac CTS-V Review 640 Horsepower Worth Starting from $84k

Cadillac said today that the most impressive road car in their history might possibly go available for sale this summer with massive base price raise up to the old CTS-V, which generally went between $70,000. With destination price the new car will be more than $84,000.

At $84,990, the CTS-V is really $4995 much more than a base 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06. That feels like a steal for simply the same supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 (though generating 10 fewer horsepower), a performance-tuned eight-speed automatic transmission, two added doors and a back seat, and an authentic 200-mph top speed. Final fuel-economy data are not in yet, but we’ve been notified by Cadillac that it anticipates the V to eliminate the gas-guzzler tax that nails M5 buyers with a $1300 tab.

A stiffer body structure, fortified suspension components and Cadillac's adaptive dampers assure more precise handling and control to arrive with the CTS-V's newfound power. Brembo brakes and bespoke Michelin high-performance tires should be tasked with stopping it and sticking it to the road.

And the Cadillac is way better set up compared to its rivals straight out of the box because of its carbon fiber hood, 19-inch wheels covered with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires, 20-way adjustable front seats having heating and ventilation, camera monitoring, and suede and carbon fiber trim.

The new CTS-V is basically two cars in one: a comfort sedan with stylish road manners with a track-capable sports car with magnificent performance. This category of car is exclusive, the domain of the few able to access this level of outstanding capability. V-Series suits or overtakes the finest cars in this finest class, while being more accessible.
