Cadillac is celebrating their 115 anniversary with the limited edition 2018 Cadillac CTS-V Glacier Metallic Edition. Just 115 units will be built in 2017 as 2018 model year cars. Its exterior paint colour is a smoky light metallic gray. Accenting the anniversary colour are standard illuminated door handles, dark red Brembo brake calipers and 19-inch forged polish-finished alloy wheels with Midnight Silver painted pockets, creating a unique look for Cadillac’s ultimate driver’s car.

The interior features Jet Black Recaro race-inspired seats, the Performance Data Recorder system, UltraView sunroof, the industry–first Rear Camera Mirror and the next-generation Cadillac user experience infotainment system.

The Cadillac CTS-V is powered by a supercharged 6.2 litre V-8 engine which generates 640 horsepower and 630 lb-ft of torque. It employs an efficient, compact supercharger matched with direct injection and Active Fuel Management cylinder deactivation. Power is transferred exclusively to the rear wheels through an 8-speed sport automatic transmission with Performance Algorithm Shifting.

The highly advanced Performance Traction Management system, developed through a two-year engineering embed with Cadillac Racing in Pirelli World Challenge, adds five track-oriented modes (from Wet to Race) plus Launch Control to ensure the most powerful Cadillac ever sold can adapt perfectly to track conditions and driver comfort level.

All new Cadillac V-Series models include tuition and accommodation at the 2-day Cadillac V-Performance Academy at Spring Mountain. The offer valid for 1 year and is reserved for the original owner of each new 2017 and newer Cadillac ATS-V and CTS-V models.

The 2018 Cadillac CTS-V Glacier Metallic Edition is available for US $103,885 including destination freight charges but excluding tax, title, license and dealer fees. The U.S. production run for the CTS-V Glacier Metallic Edition begins this month, and 105 of the 115 vehicles produced will be immediately available through U.S. Cadillac dealers.
