2012 CTS-V WAGON2012 CTS-V WAGON

This audacious wagon is pure V, with all the necessary credentials in place that make a V a world-class performer: the epic 556 horsepower Eaton-supercharged V8 engine, 6-piston front and 4-piston rear race-bred Brembo® disc brakes, dual-mode Magnetic Ride Control and 19" forged aluminum wheels shod with specially-developed Michelin Pilot® Sport PS2TM tires for tenacious grip. All while offering up to 58 cubic feet of storage space complete with a cargo management system to help keep belongings in place—especially useful when taking on corners. There’s also an under-floor storage compartment and a power liftgate that can be programmed to suit any height. Drivers of this wagon can choose from a short-throw manual TREMEC® TR-6060 or a Hydra-Matic 6-speed automatic with steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters for manual shifting without the use of a clutch pedal. Plus, red LED tracers encircle the tachometer and flash at the approach of redline, while a g-meter communicates lateral acceleration left and right as you push CTS-V to its g-force limits. The 2012 CTS-V Wagon, part of the world's fastest family of vehicles.

SUPERCHARGED V8SUPERCHARGED V8

The 6.2L supercharged V8 boasts 556 HP and 551 lb.-ft. of torque. It features an Eaton Roots-type intercooler to cool the air before it’s mixed with the fuel, producing power in spades. In fact, it has a 0–60 time of a mere 3.9 seconds21.

DUAL-MODE MAGNETIC RIDE CONTROLDUAL-MODE MAGNETIC RIDE CONTROL

To meet the demands of both everyday driving and more demanding driving, such as at the track, the V-Series features Dual-mode Magnetic Ride Control, in which the shock absorber fluid is infused with fine metallic particles. When subjected to magnetic fields, the viscosity of the fluid changes, stiffening or softening your ride to suit your performance demands. This groundbreaking technology reads the road up to 1,000 times per second, maintaining chassis poise without sacrificing a comfortable ride in both Tour Mode and Sport Mode. It’s the world’s fastest-reacting suspension. Perhaps that’s why some of the world’s greatest sports cars, including some Ferraris, have borrowed the technology.

The V-Series chassis was developed and tested at the Nürburgring®—one of the world’s most demanding tracks—to challenge the world’s most revered sports sedans. Expertly balanced, firmly planted and unbelievably responsive, the V is one-part performance vehicle, one-part revelation.

Drivers who want total control will appreciate the TREMEC® manual transmission with six-speed gearbox, short-throw shifter and dual-disc clutch. Of course, some may wonder—why manual? Because there are some things a man must do himself.

BREMBO® BRAKESBREMBO® BRAKES

It’s no coincidence that the brakes found on some of the world’s most sophisticated race cars are also found on the V. It features Brembo® high-performance brakes—6-piston, 15.1" in the front; 4-piston, 14.7" in the rear—and co-cast vented rotors. Massive power requires massive stopping power, and the V delivers.

With the performance envelope of the V, you want to be firmly planted in your seat. Available RECARO® performance seating offers bolstered 8-way adjustable lumbar support and 6-way adjustable seats. Providing secure back and thigh support for both the driver and front-seat passenger, it was designed to fit you like a glove.

G-METERG-METER

Sometimes the best features are rather unexpected. Introducing the g-meter. Positioned in the Driver Information Center, it measures lateral acceleration and remembers maximum lateral acceleration left and right. LED tracers communicate engine RPMs quickly and clearly, allowing drivers to keep track of their driving performance with a glance. The V has more in common with a race car than you might think. The proof is right in front of your eyes.
