The Cadillac ATS-V Coupe is currently undergoing testing around the Nürburgring, or was earlier this month when our spies were able to capture the best shots of it so far.
The car featured less extreme camouflage, and we were able to make out the basic lines of the car; we along with digital modifier X-Tomi who made up the ATS-V rendering you see below, based on a photo of the regular coupe – sans the cattle catcher grille of the testers.
Said to wield the power of the CTS V-Sport’s 3.6-liter V6 twin turbo, it should be good for at least 420 hp which it will be able to send to the rears, possibly either via a six-speed manual or eight-speed auto; even a dual clutch was discussed, but is not a sure thing.
The engine has not been officially confirmed, and previous reports even suggested it could be powered by a V8; there would be a regular ATS-V with the V6, and a more extreme ATS-V+ that would get the two extra cylinders.
Now that sounds just about as German as the rest of their approach to this coupe (and the rest of the range, frankly), so we’ll buy it until proven otherwise.
