The new Cadillac Blackwing sedans, including the 2022 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing and CT5-V Blackwing, are the most track-capable vehicles Caddy has ever produced, arriving with heaps of power and performance, all without sacrificing luxury. Given the names, one would be forgiven for thinking that the new go-faster sedans should at least
offer the twin-turbocharged 4.2L V8 LTA “Blackwing” gasoline engine, but according to Blackwing Chief Engineer Mirza Grebovic, the LTA simply wasn’t right for the new Cadillac Blackwing sedans.

2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing Launched: Rivals BMW M5 and E63 AMG
3rd February 2021
Cadillac has officially released the new 2022 CT5-V Blackwing and CT4-V Blackwing. The V-series Blackwing is said to feature the highest level of performance from Cadillac in regards to power and design.
CT5-V Blackwing
The CT5-V Blackwing gets a familiar 6.2L supercharged V8 engine. The horsepower is rated at 668hp and the torque at 893Nm due to its improved exhaust system and high flow air-intake – a 46% improvement over the CTS-V. The acceleration from 0-60mph is in 3.7 seconds ( automatic transmission) and the estimated top speed is 200mph+. This makes it the most powerful Cadillac ever made.
Cadillac Blackwing waitlist promised after 668hp sedan reservations go in minutes

Cadillac’s new 2022 CT4-V Blackwing and CT5-V Blackwing may only have opened for reservations this week, but with all the spots already snapped up the automaker is promising a wait-list for those who dithered for too long. Only 250 of each car have been offered so far, Cadillac has said, a last-hurrah for purely internal combustion as General Motors pushes toward electrification.
It’s no small shout, either. The CT5-V Blackwing is the daddy of the two, with Cadillac’s old favorite 6.2-liter supercharged V8 under the hood delivering a hefty 668 horsepower and 659 lb-ft of torque. 0-60 mph should come in around 3.7 seconds, the automaker says, and it’ll rocket on to a top speed in excess of 200 mph.
