2014 Cadillac XTS: What's Changed
- Most significant changes: All-new twin-turbo V-6, automatic parking assist and Intellibeam automatic high-beam control system
- Price change: TBA
- On sale: Summer 2013
- Which should you buy, 2013 or 2014? Price will weigh heavily, but the twin-turbo engine is tempting
When the 2014 Cadillac XTS goes on sale later this summer, the large sedan will be what the automaker calls "one of the most technologically advanced production cars in the brand's history." Topping the list of upgrades is a new twin-turbo V-6 engine that's borrowed from the 2014 CTS sedan.
Cadillac said the optional twin-turbo 3.6-liter V-6 is good for 410 horsepower and 369 pounds-feet of torque; that’s compared with the standard naturally aspirated 3.6-liter V-6's 304 hp and 264 pounds-feet of torque. The twin-turbo engine comes only with all-wheel drive while the standard V-6 comes with front-wheel drive or optional all-wheel drive. Both engines are mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. The twin-turbo requires premium gas; fuel-economy figures have not yet been announced.
