2018 Cadillac CTS V roars into Dubai Motor Show
Tags:
America’s answer to the Mercedes-Benz E63 and the BMW M5, the Cadillac CTS V is a muscle car dressed in a tuxedo. A part of the brand’s line-up since 2004, the American brute has built a reputation for embarrassing significantly pricier offerings on dragstrips and circuits alike.

Billed to be a four-door Corvette, the third-generation Cadillac CTS V is the most powerful Cadillac produced to date. With a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine under the hood, the luxury sports sedan produces a tire-shredding 640 horsepower and 855 Nm of torque.
Accompanied by the whine of its supercharger and burbling exhaust, the Cadillac CTS V dispatches a 0 – 100 km/h run in 3.7-seconds and bears a top speed of 320 km/h. With grunt being directed to the rear wheels, it’s a handful by any stretch of the imagination, but is redeemed by its subtle, understated styling.

Distinguishing itself from the standard model, the 2018 Cadillac CTS V features Alcantara and carbon fiber inserts that embellish the cabin. Factor in aluminum pedals, large paddle shifters, and a set of leather-wrapped sports seats and the CTS V makes its stand clear, it’s for the enthusiasts.
