High-powered, tight-handling, track-tuned, the CTS-V is

the world’s fastest production sedan, with a 0–60

time of 3.9 seconds. Powered by a 556hp supercharged

6.2L V8. Performance handling is assured by a track-tuned

suspension, independent at all wheels, with revolutionary

driver-selectable dual-mode Magnetic Ride Control shock

damping. Brembo® disc brakes – 6-piston in front, 4-piston

in rear – bring massive stopping power. The CTS-

Sedan

has turned a 7:59.32 lap time on the Nürburgring.®

Manual transmission is a

short-throw shifter and dual-disc

clutch.

6-speed automatic transmis-

wheel-mounted paddle shift

controls.

Perforated and sueded micro-

ﬁber seat inserts help keep you

planted during performance

driving, while available sueded

microﬁber steering wheel and

shift knob help with control.

The g-meter, positioned in the

Driver Information Center measures

lateral acceleration and remembers

maximum lateral acceleration left

and right. LED tracers communi-

cate vehicle performance

information quickly and clearly.

Obsidian black faceplates on

the center stack, and available

Midnight Sapele wood trim, add

technical sophistication to the

cockpit.

The CTS-V cockpit is as much about control as it is about

driver engagement. There’s luxury and reﬁnement enough

to satisfy pleasure-seekers, but the real function of this

cabin is guiding a very powerful machine. LED-traced

gauges that ﬂash as redline is approached, full dash

instrumentation and a TREMEC® 6-speed manual shifter put

the driver in control of this performance command center.

A natural extension of both the V-Series and CTS portfolio,

the CTS-V Wagon oers performance thrills to drivers who

also need the versatility of a sport wagon. This is a vehicle

with huge power and torque. It takes all the traits of the

CTS-V Sedan and adds a cargo-ready body style. This

wagon is pure V, including the 556hp supercharged V8,

dual-mode Magnetic Ride Control, Brembo® brakes,

19  wheels and Michelin® Pilot® Sport PS2

-Series performance, powered

by a 6.2L 556hp supercharged V8,

combines with dramatic CTS Sport

6-speed manual or available

automatic transmission with

steering wheel-mounted paddle

Passenger safety is a primary

consideration throughout the

engineering process. All CTS

models are carefully designed to

provide a host of features to help

you avoid accidents in the ﬁrst

place, and to help protect you if an

impact does occur.

StabiliTrak By comparing driver steering input with

vehicle response, the Electronic Stability Control

System helps you maintain control by applying ABS

brakes to any wheel that begins to slip, and adjusting

power to help correct steering.

Tire Pressure Monitor A sensor in each tire con-

stantly monitors air pressure.

Should there be a

drop in pressure, you will receive an alert via the

Driver Information Center.

Strong Unit Body A strategically engineered struc-

ture surrounds you. Front and rear crush zones help

absorb impact forces, and a comprehensive use

of high-strength steel helps channel energy away

from the passenger compartment in the event of

an impact.

Six Airbags

Dual-stage frontal airbags and seat-

mounted side airbags for the driver and front pas-

senger. Head-curtain, side-impact airbags mounted

at the roof rail help protect both front and outboard

rear passengers in the event of a side impact.

OnStar

Automatic Crash Response In a crash,

built-in sensors in your vehicle can automatically

send an alert to OnStar. An OnStar Advisor is im-

mediately connected to your vehicle to see if you’re

okay. Even if you don’t respond, the Advisor can use

GPS technology to locate you and request that

emergency help be sent right away.

About this catalog

We have tried to make this catalog comprehensive and factual. We

reserve the right, however, to make changes at any time, without

notice, in prices, colors, materials, equipment, speciﬁcations, mod-

els and availability. Speciﬁcations, dimensions, measurements,

ratings and other numbers in this catalog and other printed mate-

rials provided at the dealership or axed to vehicles are approximates

based upon design and engineering drawings and prototypes and

laboratory tests. Your vehicle may dier due to variations in manu-

facture and equipment. Since some information may have been

updated since the time of printing (08/10), please check with your

Cadillac dealer for complete details. Any variations in colors shown

are due to reproduction variation in the printing process.

Cadillac reserves the right to lengthen or shorten the model year

for any product for any reason, or start and end model years at

dierent times.

Note: Some photographs in this catalog show vehicles with op-

tional equipment.

OnStar

OnStar services require vehicle electrical system (including battery),

wireless service and GPS satellite signals to be available and oper-

ating for features to function properly. OnStar acts as a link to exist-

ing emergency service providers. Subscription Service Agreement

required. Call 1-888-4ONSTAR (466-7827) or visit onstar.com for

Engines

Cadillac products are equipped with engines produced by GM Power-

train or suppliers to GM worldwide. The engines in Cadillac products

may also be used in other GM makes or models.

Tire Sealant and Compressor Kit

Unless you option into a spare tire, there is no jack or spare tire in

this vehicle. If you do not option into the spare tire, your vehicle has

a tire sealant and compressor kit that uses a liquid tire sealant to

temporarily seal up to a ¼-inch puncture in the tread area of the tire.

After using the inﬂator kit, it is recommended to take the tire to an

authorized dealer for inspection and repair as soon as possible but

at least within 100 miles of driving. The tire sealant cannot seal and

inﬂate sidewall damage, punctures larger than ¼ inch, or a tire that

has unseated from the wheel. The sealant can only be used on one

tire one time before its expiration date.

Assembly

Cadillac vehicles and their components are assembled or produced

by dierent operating units of General Motors, its subsidiaries or

suppliers to GM worldwide. We sometimes ﬁnd it necessary to pro-

duce Cadillac vehicles with dierent or dierently sourced compo-

nents than originally scheduled. Since some options may be unavail-

able when your vehicle is assembled, we suggest that you verify that

your vehicle includes the equipment you ordered or, if there are

changes, that they are acceptable to you.
