Cadillac CT6 V-Sport
The new 2019 Cadillac CT6 V-Sport isn’t just the new flagship of the CT6 family, but it’s also the first model to adopt the all-new twin-turbo V8 engine.
Cadillac says the powerplant is a clean-sheet design, with the twin-scroll turbochargers nestled inside the vee of the engine for less turbo lag and more compact packaging. The new 4.2-liter V8 produces an estimated 550hp and 627lb-ft (850Nm) of peak torque.
The company also said that a 500hp version of the same engine will also be offered with the non V-Sport CT6. The new twin-turbo V8 is currently exclusive to Cadillac, but chances are that it will appear on other future GM models in the next few years too.
