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.

SIX-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSIONSIX-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION

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.

CADILLAC RACING CADILLAC RACING

The V is closely related to the production-based cars we race in the World Challenge Series. Racing allows us to test our cars under the most demanding conditions to continually refine, innovate and ultimately create new standards.

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.

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.

PURPOSEFUL DESIGNPURPOSEFUL DESIGN

Look at the features. Then look closer. The integrated spoiler is captivatingly beautiful, but it also reduces lift at high speeds. The grille stands out from the crowd, but it’s so much more—larger openings improve engine cooling and force air to the supercharger intercooler. And the fog lamps? They were ingeniously designed with air ducts that feed cool air to the front brakes. On the V, everything has a purpose. Often, more than one.

Cadillac CTS-V Sport Coupe G-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.
