The high-performance CTS-V variant returns for the 2009 model year. The CTS-V is powered by a 6.2L supercharged V8 that produces an estimated 550-bhp and 550 lb-ft of torque. The CTS-V employs the use of the magnetic ride control system found in the STS-V and Corvette. This time, Cadillac offers a choice of both manual and automatic transmissions. Visual enhancements include unique front and rear fascias. A larger grille and raised hood accommodate the beefy V8. Interior differences include Recaro sport seats and black trim.
