About the Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing
The Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing is the spiritual successor to the ATS-V, built on the highly acclaimed Alpha 2 platform to challenge the BMW M3. It features a 3.6-litre twin-turbocharged V6 producing 472 hp, uniquely paired with a standard six-speed manual transmission featuring rev-matching and no-lift shift technology. Renowned for its exceptional chassis balance and Magnetic Ride Control 4.0, it is widely considered one of the best-handling driver's cars in its segment. As Cadillac pivots toward an all-electric future, the Blackwing represents the final, high-water mark for the brand's internal combustion performance sedans.
