Engine & Performance
The CTS-V Coupe is a rear wheel drive vehicle and comes equipped with a supercharged 6.2 liter V8 engine that generates 556 horsepower.
It comes with a 6 speed manual transmission which is standard, but you can opt for a 6 speed automatic transmission at no charge.
Mated with a manual transmission the CTS-V can accelerate from 0-60 mph in just 4.2 seconds.
Exterior
This coupe comes in a single, 2 door trim level that seats four. The halogen headlights come with their own wipers, synchronized with the windshield wiper. In the rear, a sensor for assisted parking and a blind spot warning system enhance you driving experience.
What you get is a car with low head room to accommodate its streamlined roof, along with a low angled rear window that allows for an abundance of sun to enter on hot days. The short trunk is obvious when it comes to the very limited cargo space.
The profile view affords you summer performance tires, mounted on 19 inch wheels and high performance Brembo brakes.
Keyless entry and ignition are standard while a tilt only sunroof is offered as an option.
Interior
Inside the 2014 CTS-V Coupe you are treated to a power tilt and telescopic steering wheel, heated 8 position function for the front seats, driver side memory functions, and two zone climate control.
An odor filtration system is a feature many will appreciate.
The upholstery is faux suede and leather. Ventilated Recaro sports seats are optional, as are simulated suede for the shifter and steering wheel.
The “Sport Blue” interior option combines the sport seats with the simulated suede accents and wood inlays.
