2006 NY Auto Show
The first V-Series vehicle, the CTS-V provides high-performance driving enthusiasts with a serious, credible alternative to imports in the highly competitive, low-volume luxury performance segment.
The four-door, rear-wheel drive CTS-V now uses the overhead valve 6.0-liter V8 engine producing 400 horsepower and 395 lb.-ft. of torque. Acceleration figures include 0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds with a top speed of 163 mph. The quarter mile is achieved in 13.1 seconds at 109 mph.
Power is delivered through a six-speed manual transmission that features a dual mass flywheel for reduced noise and vibration harshness.
