Notwithstanding the SRX crossover, all Cadillac models will eventually be offered in V Sport trim.

From the ATS to the new, completely redesigned, CTS to the very generous XTS, all will be available with that V emblem.

On the exterior, V sport models are characterized by a mesh grille and distinctive alloy wheels. Inside, it is possible to opt for Recaro sport seats.

Currently only the Cadillac CTS V versions are available in V Sport, namely the sedan, coupe and sport wagon.

They are powered by a supercharged 6.2 litre V8 engine, generating 556 horsepower and 551 lb-ft of torque.

The 2014 Cadillac XTS V sport is powered by a 3.6-litre V6 twin-turbo engine that generates 410 horses  which is slightly less powerful than the CTS-V.
