2010 CTS-V: CADILLAC’S ULTIMATE EXPRESSION OF PERFORMANCE AND LUXURY

Combining the serious performance of an elite sports car with the poise of a luxury sedan, the 2009 CTS-V is Cadillac’s ultimate expression of performance and luxury.

Part of Cadillac’s acclaimed V-Series of high-performance models, the CTS-V delivers 556 horsepower (415 kW) at 6,100 rpm – making it the most powerful production Cadillac ever and one of the world’s fastest and most capable sedans.

More than just power, CTS-V also includes a comprehensive suite of technical and design enhancements. These include Magnetic Ride Control, super-capable Brembo brakes and the addition of a new automatic transmission with paddle-shift control.

“The CTS-V represents the full extension of our design, technology and performance capabilities,” said Jim Taylor, Cadillac general manager. “The V-Series takes the award-winning CTS sport sedan and elevates it to a position within the club of the world’s most exclusive and capable cars.”

The V’s development team tirelessly fine-tuned the car on some of the world’s most demanding and legendary environments. Germany’s famed Nürburgring, and roads and tracks throughout the United States and Europe, were the proving grounds.

The 2009 CTS-V extends Cadillac’s acclaimed design language, both inside and out. Several key technical and design elements combine to transform the already highly capable CTS into the new V-Series.

New 6.2L supercharged V-8 engine

The all-new LSA 6.2L supercharged V-8 engine is, perhaps, the most dramatic example of the V’s world-class comportment. Rated at 556 horsepower (415 kW) and 551 lb.-ft. of torque (747 Nm), the CTS-V’s new LSA engine is the most powerful ever offered in Cadillac’s nearly 106-year history.

The LSA engine is based on GM’s legendary small-block V-8 architecture and features an intercooled supercharger system, premium aluminum-alloy cylinder heads and numerous details designed to ensure it makes its power as quietly and smoothly as possible. The supercharger, for example, has a new, four-lobe rotor design that enhances quietness while also optimizing the performance parameters of the engine.

Complementing the LSA’s tremendous output is a combination of components and design elements designed to ensure a quiet, refined driving experience. Examples include:

• Balanced, lightweight reciprocating assembly
• Hypereutectic pistons
• Lower-lift, low-overlap camshaft
• Center-feed fuel system
• Acoustic engine cover
• Piston oil spray cooling
