Cadillac Plans To Feature All-New Twin Turbo V8 For 2016 CT6; Luxury Brand’s Sedan Spotted In Oscars Commercial
Cadillac gave a glimpse of its 2016 CT6 Sedan in a commercial flashed during the Oscars broadcast. The luxury brand's top-of-the-line car was spotted last Sunday night in "The Daring: No Regrets" ad.
Significant hints about this luxury sedan were given by Cadillac CEO Johan de Nysschen in an online interview with Jalopnik readers.
According to autoblog.com, this new Cadillac is "much grander than the one we know." He revealed that the 2016 Cadillac CT6 Sedan's lightweight body structure will allow the achievement of "formidable performance even with a twin-turbo V6."
"Imagine how this car would perform with a twin-turbo V8," de Nysschen added, making it clear that the CT6 will have "a very wide mix of engines, starting with a two-liter turbo, up to, eventually, a high-performance advanced V8 turbo."
A blog in caranddriver.com noted what de Nysschen has revealed about the company's plans in launching new addition to GM's V6 family.
"We have an entirely new family of V-6 engines coming soon, premiering in CT6," de Nysschen said.
The publication alleged that the 2016 Cadillac CT6 Sedan might have "the turbo four-cylinder in the ATS and CTS, the twin-turbocharged V-6 in the muscular ATS-V and the CTS Vsport, and the confirmed twin-turbo V-8."
Car buyers can take note of CT6's interior design language including "simplified, horizontal-theme expression to convey openness and a sense of wide space, maybe less brightwork, and a lot of emphasis on instrument-cluster design to convey them as precision instruments of functional and aesthetic beauty," as revealed by de Nysschen in the Q & A.
In addition to this, MSN reported that General Motors revealed that the 2016 Cadillac CT6 Sedan will be "the most technologically advanced car in the world, with semiautomated driving capabilities, an available plug-in hybrid powertrain, and other gizmos like a video-streaming rearview mirror."
The 2016 Cadillac CT6 Sedan will debut at the New York International Auto Show in April.
