Beginning this August, the brand-new Cadillac Twin Turbo V6 engine will go into production as an optional engine for the new 2014 Cadillac XTS.
Three option packages have been made available for the new model: Luxury, Premium, and Platinum.
The new Twin Turbo engine is also one of the new features customers can expect as part of the 2014 CTS luxury performance sedan.
Expect the new engine to produce an SAE-certified 410 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque according to a General Motors press release. GM claims the engine can deliver over 105 lb-ft of torque compared to a standard V-6.
"The addition of the new Cadillac Twin Turbo expands and elevates the XTS luxury sedan," said Bob Ferguson, vice president Global Cadillac in a press statement. "This is a compelling enhancement to what is already one of the most technically advanced sedans in our history."
Almost every component has been updated for the new engine including:
- New cylinder block casting
- Machined, domed aluminum pistons with top steel ring carrier
- Two turbochargers producing more than 12 pounds of boost
- All-new direct injection fuel system
The new XTS goes for a base price of $45,525, including destination fees.
Standard equipment featured with the new XTS includes intelligent brake assist, and Magnetic Ride Control.
