The CTS is Cadillac’s entry-luxury sport sedan, designed to compete with the best European sport sedans and was redesigned for the first time for the 2008 model year. The second-generation CTS features updates to the interior and exterior with a number of technological features. All-wheel drive is available for the first time and a new 6-speed automatic transmission is added. The CTS made its first appearance at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in August 2001 and Cadillac did extensive testing at Germany's famed Nürburgring race track. The CTS-V was added for 2004 with a 400-horsepower 5.7-liter V8 engine.

Redesigned for 2008, the 2009 Cadillac CTS sedan continues unchanged and the high-performance CTS-V returns to the lineup. The 2009 CTS-V is powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter LSA V8 engine that delivers 556 horsepower and 551 lb-ft of torque. According to General Motors, the CTS-V will accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds and covers the quarter-mile from a standing start in 12 seconds at 118 mph. The CTS-V also features a new version of Cadillac’s Magnetic Ride Control suspension and a new automatic transmission with paddle-shift manual control.
