Cadillac CT6 to be launched
Posted by Mansoor A. Bukhari on May 16, 2016
Cadillac has invited YallaMotor to test drive the brand new Cadillac CT6. It is an all-new car and not the replacement of the CTS as the name might suggest. The CT6 sits above the CTS and the ATS. It is touted to be the new flagship model from the American brand. The main focus of the CT6 is luxury and luxury only. It is not meant to be a German car – something the brand has been trying for quite long but not being that successful. It is an all-American car that is made Hamtramck, Michigan.

Coming to the car itself, the CT6 measures 5182 millimeters in length, 1880 millimeters in width and 1471 millimeters in height. The wheelbase of the car is 3,109 millimeters long. The curb weight of the car is 1853 kilograms. The car is built on a new platform called Omega. The CT6 is a front-engined car which comes with either rear-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive platform. For the engine specs, from what we know, the CT6 has many engine options available. Customers can choose a 2.0 liter turbocharged inline-four engine that produces 265 BHP. Then there are the two V6 options available. The first is the naturally aspirated 3.6 liter V6 producing 335 BHP and the other V6 is a 3.0 liter twin-turbocharged version producing a whopping 400 BHP. All three engines are mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Though, one can expect a V8 variant in the future.
