August 27 2021,

This super-powerful and oh-so-sexy bomb is coming soon to your Cadillac dealer in Brossard, on the South Shore of Montreal.
Brossard Cadillac is eager to tell you all about it!
2022 CT5-V: a sporty sedan for drivers of all ages!
For a long time, the Cadillac brand was considered the sign of success for accomplished individuals who had reached a stage in their lives where it was possible to treat themselves to the crème de la crème of cars: a Cadillac.
Today, this idea is no longer true, because Cadillac sedans have evolved dramatically over the last decade. Cadillac shifted its strategy and decided to go after a younger clientele, and that strategy is paying off.
On the other hand, German manufacturers such as Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz have lost a significant part of their customers.
All Cadillac models, without exception, including of course the Cadillac CT5, are now considered sporty vehicles. They are certainly very refined, but also very sporty. Even after just a quick glance at the engine of the new 2022 Cadillac CT5-V, especially its Blackwing version, its sportiness is impossible to deny.
2022 CT5-V Blackwing = Performance
But why the Blackwing? This engine, called Blackwing, was available as an option on the now-defunct CT6. It consisted of a twin-turbo 4.2 L V8 engine, but it was deemed to be insufficiently powerful for the CT5. However, the 2022 Cadillac CT5-V offers the most powerful engine ever produced in Cadillac’s 118 years of history, and the Blackwing name now represents the brand's signature in ultimate performance.
Long live heel-toe driving!
There’s even more good news for fans of raw performance: the 2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is equipped with a 6-speed Tremec manual transmission. Hallelujah!
But if you prefer to use only two pedals, a 10-speed automatic transmission is also available, and it's very efficient.
What’s more, this Cadillac, soon for sale in Brossard, offers rear-wheel drive as well as the Magnetic Ride Control suspension, which adjusts the damping rate several times per second to maximize its traction.
Now for those who like numbers, the 2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing offers you:
- A 0 to 100 km/h time of only 3.7 seconds
- A top speed of 200 km/h
- Four driving modes including Tour, Sport, Track and Custom Mode
- 15.7 inch Brembo brakes in the front and 14.7 inches in the rear
- And 19-inch wheels.
The 2022 Cadillac CT5-V is incredibly seductive
The style of the 2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing, which is expected to start at just under $90,000, is divinely beautiful… or devilishly so, considering what's under the hood.
The mesh grille has been redesigned to inhale more air to feed the beast, while the rear spoiler improves traction at high speeds. The side panels have also been modified to improve airflow under the fenders for better stability. The 4-tipped exhaust system isn’t shy to announce just how much power is at your command.
The 2022 CT5-V Blackwing is sporty inside and out
Its interior also makes it very clear that this is a sports car. It boasts many features that will inevitably appeal to track enthusiasts, including:
- Two-tone or monochrome Alcantara leather upholstery
- Leather sport steering wheel with carbon fibre trim
- Heated, ventilated and massaging sport seats with 18-way adjustment and carbon-fibre trimmed rear seats
Of course, you will also enjoy to the latest technologies such as:
- Super Cruise hands-free driving
- Wireless phone charging
- Front and rear pedestrian alert
- Reverse automatic braking
- High-definition surround vision and video recording
- Rear seat reminder
- Following distance indicator
Summarizing the 2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing
As you can imagine, it's impossible to list the countless features of this new Cadillac sedan in so little time.
That being said, we can compare its performance with some of its competitors: the BMW M3 delivers 503 horsepower; the M5, the most powerful BMW, delivers 627 horsepower; the Porsche Panamera clocks in at 620 horsepower; and the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT63 S comes in the closest to the CT5-V Blackwing with 630 horsepower.
In short, not only does the 2022 CT5-V Blackwing offer you the most powerful engine, but its silhouette is enough to make any German car envious. The same is true for its interior.
Cadillac's reputation for refinement and luxury is world-renowned. And while we can't deny its sporty nature, the CT5-V Blackwing also boasts a rich, comfortable and sumptuous interior.
