Cadillac Escalade and CTS-V\u00a0V-8 Engine<\/h2>\n

The 2017 Cadillac Escalade, 2017 Cadillac CTS-V, and three Cadillac prototype race cars (which won 11 out of 15 podium places in the 2017 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship) all share a 6.2-liter V-8 naturally aspirated engine with the same inherent architecture. Drivers with a new Escalade or CTS-V under their hands can enjoy knowing that their luxury vehicle is driven by the beating heart of a race car. In the racing models this engine delivers nearly 600 horsepower. That is different on the road-designed models.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs in the Cadillac CTS-V and Escalade, the Cadillac 6.2L V-8 in the race car produces unrivaled, unfailing power and responsiveness.\u201d – Richard Brekus, Cadillac Global Director of Product Strategy.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n
