Judging by the statements of representatives of the concern GM, the next summer on the conveyor will go the updated model Cadillac CTS V, which has the formula of landing "2 + 2". Speaking about this novelty, first of all, it should be noted that this is the case when the function largely determines the form. The coupe does not differ in size from the sports sedan: it is only 51 millimeters below and is just as shorter. In addition, both these chic models have identical radiator grilles, "torpedoes", as well as front wings and optics.
Speaking about the technical equipment of the novelty, I would like to emphasize that it is in the Cadillac CTS V Coupe that the most powerful engine is installed for all the years of the company's activity. More specifically, specifically for this model, a V-shaped "eight" with a supercharger of 6.2 liters is developed. The unit is capable of developing 564 "horses". This engine allows you to accelerate the car to a hundred in only 4.4 seconds from the site. Together with this, thanks to the 4-cylinder design of the supercharger, the motor functions gently and quietly. As for the gearbox, there are two versions available. We are talking about a "mechanic" with a double clutch, as well as an "automatic". Both have six steps.
The car uses a high-end suspension, which is able to respond immediately to the smallest features of the road surface, and then independently adjusts the shock absorbers for them. It can function in two modes - "sport" and "travel". Thanks to this, the Cadillac CTS V Coupe features excellent handling in a variety of conditions. With regard to the chassis, the car is equipped with 19-inch aluminum wheels , as well as high-quality tires from Michelin, characterized by good grip with any road. All wheels are equipped with Brembo brake discs , made of an alloy of aluminum and cast iron. This not only improves their characteristics, but also reduces weight.
The new coupe Cadillac CTS V is distinguished by the lack of standard side racks. Due to the rear window of the car, installed almost horizontally, its almost ideal aerodynamic profile is reached. The car is equipped with the usual vertical headlights with LED tubes, typical for most models of this manufacturer. Another feature of the machine is that there are no door handles, since the doors are controlled using a special touch panel. A real discovery in the design of the novelty are twin exhaust pipes, which are located in the central part of the rear bumper.
Now let's talk about the interior of the car. Salon sports coupe Cadillac CTS V stands out with interesting color solutions for decoration. Particularly striking contrast stitches. The finish itself is a material with microfibers, which is somewhat similar to suede, but unlike it, it is insensitive to moisture and easy to care for. It should be noted that the door and the center console are trimmed manually in the car. The manufacturer decided to keep up with the latest developments in technology, so even in the standard version of the car there is a hard disk with a capacity of 40 gigabytes, a navigation system reproduced on a sliding monitor, an audio system and a Bluetooth phone. The cost of the Cadillac CTS Coupe 2012 in the domestic market starts from 3.68 million rubles.
