The Cadillac CTS-V Coupe is the most dramatic model in the V-Series range of high-performance luxury cars.
A unique grille that doubles front-end airflow to help enable its high-performance capabilities is one of the V-Series' distinguishing features, along with an aggressive front fascia and raised center section of the aluminum hood that provides clearance for the supercharger.
The 2014 CTS-V Coupe interior features streamlined instrumentation, LED lighting and hand-cut-and-sewn accents. It includes performance seats featuring perforated sueded microfiber inserts designed to hold the driver and front passenger in place during cornering.
Complementing the performance seating are a thick steering wheel and a gauge package. Large instruments have bold readouts, including an LED-lit "tracer" function in the tachometer that flashes as the engine nears the red line.
The new Sport Blue interior package offers Twilight Blue leather seating surfaces with microfiber sueded fabric inserts, microfiber sueded steering wheel rim and shift knob and Recaro performance seats, along with the Midnight Sapele Wood Trim package, for the instrument panel, console and door panels.
The CTS-V's 6.2L supercharged V-8 engine is rated at 556 horsepower and 551 lb.-ft. of torque. It is the most powerful engine in Cadillac's history.
A pair of six-speed transmissions is offered in the CTS-V Coupe -- a Tremec TR6060 six-speed manual with a dual-disc clutch and a Hydra-Matic 6L90 six-speed automatic with steering wheel-mounted shift controls.
A collection of technical and performance elements complement the powertrain, including Magnetic Ride Control, Brembo brakes and Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 performance tires mounted on 19-inch forged aluminum wheels, as well as a track-proven brake system with two-piece front rotors.
