Could eschew the V8 for a twin-turbo V6


The Cadillac ATS-V news continues to leak out as a new report is indicating the ATS-V.R race car will debut alongside the 2016 ATS-V lineup at the Los Angeles Auto Show.




Cadillac has been coy on details but GM Authority is reporting the car will have a twin-turbo 3.6-liter V6 engine. While the engine is expected to produce 450 bhp (335 kW) in road-going model, the race car will have to meet GT3 homologation regulations so it should be tuned to produce 500-600 bhp (372-447 kW). The regulations also call for the car to weigh between 2645-2866 lbs (1200-1300 kg).




If everything pans out, the ATS-V.R will be unveiled on November 18th.
