The company's latest passenger car ushers in a new era of Cadillac performance with the V-Series.

In August, Cadillac announced it will enter the high-performance luxury arena with a new line of high-performance vehicles called the V-Series that recalls the General Motors division's heritage as a pioneer in high-performance “V” engine technology. Speaking at the 53rd Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, Cadillac General Manager Mark LaNeve said, “The announcement of the V-Series…shows we're serious about establishing credibility with the most sophisticated customers in the luxury market-the high-performance luxury buyer.”

The V-Series will be completely designed and engineered “in-house” in a cooperative effort with GM's recently established Performance Division. Vehicle performance enhancements will include substantially increased power over the standard engine; manual or “automatic- manual” transmission; performance- tuned suspension; additional instrumentation; larger front air intake; dual exhaust with visible tips; larger wheels, tires, and brakes; standard Stabilitrak; unique seating surfaces; and V-Series exterior and interior badging.
