In a world dominated by European luxury performance sedans, the 2019 Cadillac CTS-V roars onto the scene with bold American attitude and supercar-level performance. As the high-performance variant of the Cadillac CTS, the CTS-V blends the comfort and class of a premium sedan with the raw power and thrilling dynamics of a muscle car.
With its aggressive design, a beastly 640-horsepower supercharged V8 engine, and an interior packed with tech and luxury, the CTS-V is Cadillac's ultimate statement of what a modern American sports sedan can be.
Performance Overview
At the heart of the 2019 Cadillac CTS-V lies its most defining feature: a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine borrowed and tuned from the legendary Corvette Z06. This beast delivers a staggering 640 horsepower and 630 lb-ft of torque, making the CTS-V one of the most powerful sedans ever produced by an American automaker.
With launch control engaged, the CTS-V rockets from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.7 seconds, and can reach a top speed of 200 mph—performance figures that place it firmly in supercar territory. But this car isn’t just about straight-line speed. Cadillac equipped the CTS-V with Magnetic Ride Control, an adaptive suspension system that reads the road up to 1,000 times per second and adjusts the damping in real-time for optimal ride comfort and handling. The result is a car that feels planted in the corners, agile on winding roads, and smooth enough for everyday driving.
Additionally, Performance Traction Management allows the driver to customize settings for track use, offering five modes to fine-tune stability control, throttle response, and suspension stiffness. The CTS-V strikes an impressive balance between brute force and refined control, giving drivers a visceral, rewarding experience whether they’re carving canyon roads or cruising down the freeway.
Exterior Design
The 2019 Cadillac CTS-V makes a powerful first impression—before the engine even roars to life. Its bold, aggressive styling reflects the performance lurking beneath the hood while maintaining the elegance expected from a luxury sedan.
Up front, the CTS-V features a distinctive mesh grille and enlarged front air intakes, which both improve airflow and help keep the supercharged V8 cool under pressure. The carbon fiber hood with an integrated air extractor is not just for show—it reduces weight and directs hot air away from the engine bay.
Sculpted body lines flow across the length of the car, emphasizing its low stance and muscular form. Flared fenders house 19-inch forged aluminum wheels, wrapped in high-performance Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires for maximum grip. From the rear, the CTS-V maintains its aggressive theme with quad exhaust outlets, a bold diffuser, and an angular trunk lid spoiler, all designed to reduce lift and improve high-speed stability. Subtle V-series badging and dark chrome accents set it apart from the standard CTS, signaling to those in the know that this is no ordinary sedan. No matter the finish, the 2019 CTS-V exudes confidence, power, and purpose with a look that’s as thrilling as its performance.

Interior and Comfort
The cabin combines premium craftsmanship with race-inspired touches, striking a balance between sophistication and sportiness that few competitors manage as well. The interior is wrapped in high-quality materials, including leather-appointed seating, suede microfiber inserts, and available carbon fiber trim. Every surface feels deliberate and upscale, from the stitched dashboard to the satin chrome accents. The layout is driver-focused, placing controls and the digital display intuitively within reach, while still offering plenty of comfort for passengers.
At the center are the available RECARO performance front seats, which offer exceptional bolstering and adjustability. Still, Cadillac ensures a premium experience throughout, with features like ambient lighting, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a power sunroof to elevate the ride.
Sound insulation is impressive, but Cadillac also offers a performance data recorder and engine sound enhancement system, allowing you to still enjoy the satisfying growl of the supercharged V8 when you want it. When it's time to relax, the Bose premium sound system delivers crisp audio that fills the cabin with concert-like quality.
Technology and Infotainment
The 2019 Cadillac CTS-V is as advanced inside the cabin as it is under the hood, offering a full suite of technology and connectivity features that enhance convenience, entertainment, and safety. Whether you’re commuting, cruising, or carving corners, the CTS-V keeps you connected and in control.
The system includes intuitive touch and swipe controls, along with physical volume and climate buttons for added convenience. While earlier versions of CUE received mixed reviews, the 2019 update offers improved responsiveness and a more user-friendly interface.
Audio quality is handled by a 13-speaker Bose premium surround sound system, which delivers clear, immersive sound throughout the cabin. The CTS-V also includes built-in navigation with real-time traffic updates, ensuring you get where you're going as efficiently as possible.
In terms of driver assistance, the CTS-V comes well-equipped with a host of safety and convenience technologies, including:
- Forward Collision Alert
- Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert
- Blind Spot Monitoring
- Front and Rear Park Assist
- Surround Vision camera system
Additionally, Cadillac’s Performance Data Recorder (PDR) is available—an innovative feature that allows drivers to record video of their driving sessions, complete with real-time performance data like speed, throttle input, g-forces, and more. It’s a perfect tool for enthusiasts who want to review their driving on the track or simply capture a fun backroad run.

Driving Experience
The moment you press the accelerator, the supercharged 6.2L V8 responds with explosive power, launching the CTS-V forward with brute force. Each mode adjusts throttle response, steering weight, suspension stiffness, and traction control settings. In Tour mode, it settles down, becoming a calm and composed luxury cruiser perfect for daily commuting.
Braking is equally impressive thanks to Brembo performance brakes, which deliver strong, fade-resistant stopping power with excellent pedal feel. Yet, for all its ferocity, the CTS-V remains surprisingly livable. It’s this dual personality—track-capable yet highway-comfortable—that makes the CTS-V such a special machine.
For drivers who crave adrenaline without sacrificing daily usability, the CTS-V delivers a best-of-both-worlds experience.
