    2019 Cadillac ATS-V Coupe pricier but better equipped

    Those in the market for a small sport sedan will have to look away from Cadillac as the ATS-V exits production this year. The brand will gladly sell buyers an ATS-V Coupe, however.

  • 2017 Cadillac Carbon Black

    Cadillac says a new Carbon Black package will be available for its 2017 ATS and CTS models, including the high-performance ATS-V and CTS-V variants. Like the packages that have preceded it, the features included are largely cosmetic—but that doesn't make them any less desirable. The packages on the standard ATS and CTS bring a cosmetic appearance more in line with their full V siblings, including adding Recaro-branded seats inside. The ATS-V and CTS-V, meanwhile, get their own Recaros and a few extra goodies. Here's a breakdown of what to expect, although Cadillac has not yet announced...

The new engine replaces the current 3.6-liter V-6 on offer on the ATS and CTS. It still displaces 3.6 liters but benefits from fuel-saving features such as cylinder deactivation and engine stop-start. Peak power is now 333 horsepower, up slightly on the...

    While it’s always fun to think a newer, hotter, more ferocious super-performance version of an already incredible car like the Cadillac ATS-V is on the way, that’s just not the case, this time. There is no ATS-V Plus in the works. That’s the official word from Cadillac’s...

    2016 Cadillac ATS-V First Drive Video

    First things first: yes, this newfangled V car is better than the Germans. For me, anyway. Maybe for you, too. Already half of you are flabbergasting and chuffing, the disbelief—or is it disdain?—like a fine haze of saliva in the air. Well, tough. The 2016 Cadillac ATS-V is that good...
