2025 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing Precision

Cadillac introduced a refreshed edition of the CT5-V, the only American sedan with a V8 engine, manual transmission and rear-wheel drive. Production will begin next year and the car will come with a special Precision package that optimizes the CT5-V Blackwing for use on closed tracks.

The CT5-V Blackwing is powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine (LT4) with 668 hp (498 kW) and 659 lb-ft (893 Nm) of torque, mated to a 6-speed manual or 10-speed automatic transmission. which sends power to the rear wheels. With the manual transmission, the CT5-V reaches 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.6 seconds with a top speed of 320 km/h (199 mph).

Now owners of the refreshed CT5-V can test its capabilities and power on circuit tracks thanks to a special Precision package that offers a multi-adjustable suspension with adaptive dampers (MagneRide), stiffer springs and stiffer anti-roll bars, a recalibrated electronic limited-slip differential and a more precise steering system, carbon-ceramic brakes, and lightweight 19-inch aluminum wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2R tires.

“After everything we’ve done, thinking about achieving record lap times at various tracks around the world, we’re confident that the refreshed CT5-V combined with the Precision package will live up to the expectations of even the biggest enthusiasts both on the road and on the track,” said Executive Chief Engineer Brandon Vivian.

2025 Cadillac Escalade

At the end of the 90s, Cadillac introduced a luxury SUV, the Escalade, as a response to other luxury SUVs such as the Mercedes-Benz M-Class, Range Rover or Lexus LX. After five generations, Cadillac launched a refreshed edition of this model.

The Escalade is a huge SUV with a length of over 5.5 meters, which now comes with a new front end, slim LED headlights, a new illuminated logo on the grille, adaptive air suspension, Magnetic Ride Control 4.0 system and Super Cruise system for semi-autonomous driving. Buyers can choose between new 22″ and 24″ wheels, as well as three new body colors: Aegean Stone Green, Deep Sea Blue Metallic and Latte Metallic Light Bronze. It should also be noted that the doors can be set to open automatically when approaching the car, as well as that they can be automatically closed when the brake pedal is touched.

Inside, the cabin is equipped with a massive 55″ screen that extends the entire width of the dashboard, and is divided into two parts: 35 inches for the driver and 20 inches for the passenger. Cadillac has not forgotten the passengers in the back, who can now enjoy a 12.6″ touchscreen if they opt for the Executive Second Row package.

When it comes to the powertrain, Cadillac decided to drop the 3.0-liter diesel engine from the lineup. So buyers can now choose between the 6.2-liter V8 engine with 420 hp (313 kW) and 459 lb-ft (623 Nm) of torque, which powers the standard Escalade, and the supercharged 6.2-L V8 engine with 682 hp ( 508 kW) and 653 lb-ft (885 Nm) of torque, which powers the Escalade-V.

The prices of the refreshed editions are not known.

Cadillac released photos of the mysterious Coupe

In 2018, rumors began about a new Cadillac coupe that was revealed thanks to a design patent, but there was no announcement from the company. At least not until now when his appearance was revealed on Instagram.

As a part “From the Vault” (GM Design series), the car mixes elements of the Escala concept with more modern design elements. The result is one of the best cars from GM since the Buick Avista concept. “The coupe was born as an internal exploration of Cadillac’s aesthetic and shaped the portfolio of models on the road today, including the CT5 and CT5 V-Blackwing,” the company said.

Unlike the CT5, this Coupe has a new front fascia with thin headlights, muscular intakes and a wide grille, a sculpted hood and bright trim, while the rear design is standard for Cadillac cars.

The interior is equipped with leather-trimmed seats with fancy seat belts, a rotary shifter controller, and metal speaker covers and wood accents.

This concept never went into production, and it’s not certain that it ever will because Cadillac has since given up on the Coupe.
