Any wagon versions planned?

[schocker]

That is a pretty un-agressive design. What engine did the V get though, LSA?

Wow, #epicfail...

I hear they are discontinuing the V-Coupe and Vagon as well... 13's will be for collecting

And why didn't they release engine specs on the V for 2014 (other than it's over 500hp)?

Meh, nothing amazing happening. The previous model was much nicer looking.

If I can come out of this design change with a better looking and more powerful vehicle then the new 14's, I'll be happy

I just figured that out now
Rage2 and mibz are lying to us!

The new Cadillac Twin-Turbo V-6 and eight-speed automatic transmission combination leads the CTS sedan's powertrain lineup in the new CTS Vsport. It is the first twin-turbocharged engine ever offered by Cadillac and is the brand's first eight-speed automatic.

The CTS Vsport also features:

- 18-inch aluminum wheels with Pirelli summer-only performance tires (19-inch wheels with all-season tires are available)
- A quicker steering ratio
- Brembo disc brakes with aluminum calipers and high-performance brake pads,
- Heavy-duty track cooling package
- Driver-selectable track mode with specific steering rate and Magnetic Ride Control calibrations for greater track performance
- Electronic limited-slip differential that enhances capability on the track – including optimal acceleration out of turns.

The Cadillac Twin-Turbo is SAE-certified at 420 horsepower (313 kW) and 430 lb.-ft. of torque (583 Nm), making it the most power-dense six-cylinder engine in the segment. A pair of smaller turbochargers helps provide more immediate power on demand, with approximately 90 percent of peak torque available from 3,500 rpm to 4,500 rpm. That gives the engine a broad torque curve that customers will feel as strong, willing power in almost all driving conditions – and helps the CTS sedan reach 60 mph in an estimated 4.6 seconds.

I hear the coupe is on for both the CTS and ATS. Wagon model is under consideration if Caddy sales increase in other world markets and demand for a wagon model.

I can't wait to see the new "V" it's gonna be awesome.

Other than the frumpy tail end, this similar and some way better than E class.

Pretty hot, I guess. Looks bigger than the old CTS-V. Looks more lux too.

Much improved. The current V's are nice and all but the styling is a bit much. This new generation looks refined.
