2015 Cadillac ATS-V Release Date
2015 Cadillac ATS-V will go on sale in 2014 as 2015 model. While this may not be the best look at the new car, we could see a number of important changes that limit the ATS as a high-performance model V. wqzxc The most important is the larger wheels and quad exhaust tips look on this tester, sticking out of what looks to be a revised rear diffuser. In the future, we can clearly see the larger intake low eschew LED running lights found in normal ATS. Grille has also been revised and looks a little bigger, too.

All of this space is added to the air flow makes sense - the recent rumors pointing towards ATS-V is powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 fettled to the tune of around 380 hp. wqzxc However, our spy shooters note that the car pictured here has "impressive exhaust note that sounds more of a V-8 V-6." From the picture, we can not say whether the 556-hp 6.2-liter supercharged V-8 from the CTS-V will fit.
If the ATS-V is not, in fact, end up with 380 hp, it does not stack up well against the competition. wqzxc BMW M3 pumps out 414 hp from the 4.0-liter V-8 (and 2015 M3/M4 expected to have the same output), while the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG churns 451 hp from the 6.2-liter V-8. That said, the ATS-V will beat the Audi S4 333 hp from a supercharged 3.0-liter V-6.
Currently, the 2015 Cadillac ATS V rear three quarters 300x187 spy imagethe most potent powerplant ATS use is a 321-hp 3.6-liter V-6 coupled to wqzxc a six-speed automatic. Buyers can also choose from a 2.5-liter I-4 good for 202 hp or 272-hp 2.0-liter turbo-four, which can be mated to either a six-speed manual or automatic.
