2022 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing: The American M3 lives on

The new V-Series Blackwing models will be the last performance Cadillacs to have gas only engines, so enjoy this while you can.


Cadillac received a lot of bad press when it revealed the CT4-V with a 2.7L turbo I4, but this new V-Series Blackwing model is the true successor to the ATS-V.

It has a 3.6L twin-turbo V6 with 352kW (472hp) and 603Nm (445 lb-ft), and a 6-speed manual or 10-speed auto.

The auto has a 0-60mph time of 3.8s, and a top speed of 304km/h (189mph).

Standard are Brembo brakes, a 14-speaker AKG sound system, carbonfiber accents, configurable 12-in instrument cluster with Blackwing graphics, new aero, and 18-in front wheels and 19-in rear wheels.
