I'm Aaron Bragman for cars dot com
this is the 2014 Cadillac cts-v Sport
it's an all-new Cadillac CTS for 2014
new from the ground up and general motors invited us here to there proving
grounds in Milford Michigan to get a firsthand look
ap a new model we took it on the track we took around the block
here's what we have to say about it the CTS is all new for 2014 from the ground
up it's a brand new platform for the CTS
and so while it may not look much like the all CPS there are still some Q's the
carryover
throughout the Cadillac family such as these headlights check out these LED
light pipes
the comp almost all the way up to the top of the fender everything is longer
lower and wider and such a very different stance for the CTS than the
one it replaces
styling down the side of the car
is a little bit softer than we've seen in previous cadillacs in
keeping for a world market where have to appeal to a lot of audiences right
around here
we're seeing a lot of mercedes-benz in the rear pillar and the rear by car
is not quite as distinctive as the front of the car but is still very clean
and very attractive for 2014 the new CTS has three possible powertrains
base engine will be a 2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder
you can move up to a 3.6 liter direct-injected v-6
or in this car V Sport we have an option
every twin-turbocharged 3.6 liter v6
making 420 horsepower new lightweight chassis for the CTS
really does make a difference it handles extremely well yet it's still very solid
very light
the hearings years old morning when you're leaving
darling seeds yes the Cadillac from course
condenser is because you can drive on a road course
the amount of technology and capability caroline is built into the cts-v Sport
in particular
with a 420 horsepower twin-turbo v6 engine
magnetic rights-managed what would you wanna be controlled just about
everything
during this thing actually actual track monster
it's about four hundred pounds last been a BMW 4.4 liter v8
than getting is just a little longer following you
I'm
they actually think the mornings from the engine
through the speakers of the car so that it sounds you can actually hear it
they've actually created being planning
extraordinary track car
you'd never drilling is everything going
material
going to
you to join
I'm for 2014 the new CTS has been updated inside and out
and inside things are looking pretty good it's much more spacious and airy
for a big guy like me
the material quality is very good we have some unusual features such as this
an electric cup holder door are you need to do is touch it lightly
when it opens and closes now that luxury
as with all new Cadillac the 2014 CTS gets the Cadillac user experience
it's their multimedia system controlling everything from the audio to the
telephone
navigation it's a touch panel system which were not too keen on
but in some kinda like that works better than others in the CTS
it seems to be pretty quick along with the Cadillac user experience
we also have a reconfigurable gauge cluster on the premium models
in the V Sport model in particular you can opt for a fancy gauge package
that allows it to be reconfigurable as you like there's also a heads up display
to company that with all the information projected basically on the road in front
of you
they can be as fancy or simple as you like sporty or traditional as suits your
fancy
while the car is five inches longer than the previous ETS
the back seat is still pretty tight especially when you up for a sunroof
both leg room and headroom
are fairly compromised catalog has created a
grownups sophisticated sports sedan in the new CTS
it's really quite impressive it goes on sale right around the end of September
2013
and going to cost about forty six thousand dollars for a base model
all the way up to just shy of sixty thousand dollars for a V sport like you
