2014 Cadillac XTS Will Have Twin Turbo Power
Cadillac will add a new option to its XTS luxury sedan, meaning more power and torque. From August 2013, the all-new Cadillac Twin Turbo V6 will go into production as an optional engine for the 2014 XTS. The new Twin Turbo V6 is also a feature of the upcoming 20114 CTS luxury performance sedan. The Twin Turbo will pack an SAE-certified 410 hp (306kW) and 369 lb-ft of torque (500Nm) making it one of the most powerful six-cylinder engines among luxury cars. The engine gives 105 lb-ft more torque over the standard V6 from 1900 to 5600 rpm, providing seemingly endless torque for vehicle responsiveness.
“The addition of the new Cadillac Twin Turbo expands and elevates the XTS luxury sedan,” said Bob Ferguson, vice president Global Cadillac. “This is a compelling enhancement to what is already one of the most technically advanced sedans in our history.”
In both the CTS and XTS product lines, the twin turbo will be the centerpiece of a new model offering called Vsport. The new Vsport is inspired by and slotted “underneath” Cadillac’s elite high-performance V-Series models. Vsport includes the best-performing technical elements inside the “regular” car line in a single model, headlined by Twin Turbo engine.
The cylinder heads are unique, featuring a high-tumble intake port design that enhances the motion of the air charge for a more-efficient burn when it is mixed with the direct-injected fuel and ignited in the combustion chamber.
The XTS Vsport model will be offered only in the up-level Premium and Platinum Collections. In addition to the twin turbo engine, Vsport offers upgraded 20-inch wheels and a unique grille.
