Cadillac Sheds Light on Its Next Level of Race-Inspired Cars at DIMS 2017

Over ten years since the first-generation V-series was produced, the 2018 ATS-V and CTS-V models incorporate unique performance elements with components from top automotive suppliers and segment-leading company-exclusive technology.

The smallest and lightest V-Series car with technology enhancements, the Cadillac ATS-V, available in both sedan and coupe, delivers remarkable power and performance. Powered by the Cadillac Twin-Turbo V-6, the ATS-V boasts an impressive 464 horsepower (346 kW) and 445 lb-ft of torque (601 Nm), enabling 0-100 km/h performance in 3.8 seconds and a segment-best top speed of 304 km/h.

The second of the V-Series models, CTS-V, is the pinnacle of immediate and relentless power balanced with luxury. With a supercharged 6.2L V-8 engine generating 640 horsepower (477 kW) and 630 lb-ft of torque (855 Nm), the CTS-V is capable of 0-100 performance in 3.7 seconds and a top speed of 322 km/h.

With unique features from the fascias and front fenders, to the hood, rear spoiler and rocker mouldings, the exterior design of the V-Series contributes to scalpel-like driving dynamics. Taken from track-inspired precision, the design and relationship of the key interior features of the models are made to produce high-performance driving dynamics.

This year’s models build on previous generations with a new user experience system, providing customers with easier access to climate control, audio, phone and navigation, all displayed on one screen.
