CADILLAC XLR-V
The XLR-V V-Series performance package
increases engine power by adding
a supercharged 4.4-liter V-8 that
develops 443 horsepower -- for 0-60
sprints at a jaw-dropping 4.3 seconds!
This six-speed utilizes Performance
Algorithm Shifting and Performance
Algorithm Liftfoot systems. The
look of the XLR-V is racier, with
polished wire-mesh upper and lower
grilles, a sculpted hood, four stainless-steel
exhaust tips and 10-spoke 19"
aluminum wheels with a sterling
silver finish.
To improve handling, the XLR-V has
a rear stabilizer bar and a larger
front stabilizer bar. XLR-V's ride
is complemented by firmer suspension
tuning, upgraded antilock performance
brakes, and safety items like run-flat
tires, a tire-pressure monitor,
stability control, head/torso side-impact
airbags and rear parking sensors.

XLR-V
STYLING AND TECHNOLOGY
Both Cadillac XLR and XLR-V boast
an upscale cabin complete with rich
eucalyptus wood trim and aluminum
accents in addition to super comfortable
leather seating.
Inside state-of-the-art technologies
abound: HUD head-up display shows
vital information such as speed, fuel
level and audio status on the windshield,
adaptive cruise control automatically
maintains a preset distance between
you and the car in front, and a large
touchscreen mounted high in the center
stack helps keep the dash free of
numerous single-use buttons.
XLR-V features a combination of bold,
angular styling outside and distinctive
eucalyptus-wood cockpit accents gives
the XLR-V a sophisticated presence
-- wrapped up in a steathy, head-turning
package.
