Two awards for the excellence of "Changan Al-Mutawa" since the day Egypt will choose a Chinese company to start producing electric cars two days agoThe vehicle, which Al-Rai editor had the opportunity to test, is characterized by upgraded versions of the Cadillac cars ready for the tracks, a 6.2-liter V8 with a turbocharger, with a 10-speed automatic transmission and an electronic limited-slip differential enhanced to reduce weight. Mass and improved reliability on the track, along with an upgraded suspension system to give more control over the chassis and a more agile feel.
This is in addition to Magnetic Ride Control 4.0, the world’s fastest responsive suspension technology, which balances daily driving comfort and high-performance capabilities on the track, with unique structural reinforcements that improve steering response and track control, and the Cadillac-type brake system. "Brembo High Performance" is the largest ever installed directly at the factory, and it features cross-drilled rotors and offers many advantages including reduced weight, enhanced reliability and effective heat management.
unleashed
The CT5-V Blackwing uses an upgraded 6.2-liter V8 engine with a turbocharger, which delivers 668 horsepower (498 kW) and 659 pound-feet (893 Nm) of torque thanks to the increased airflow intake and system A redeveloped exhaust, making it the most powerful Cadillac ever, with each engine being handcrafted at General Motors' Bowling Green Assembly facility in Kentucky, which features the engine maker's signature plaque.
The top speed on the track, according to General Motors estimates, is more than 321.87 km / h, while acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h can be done in 3.7 seconds, according to the automatic transmission system.
Track booster brakes
The car features advanced, high-performance brake systems that have been extensively tested on the track and on the road. Exclusive wheel designs allow for a larger rotor than the previous CTS-V, making it the largest brake system in Cadillac's history installed directly at the factory. .
The CT5-V Blackwing comes with front rotors (15.67 x 1.42 inches) and rear rotors (14.7 x 1.1 inches), with 6-piston telescoping front Brembo calipers and 4-piston rear calipers.
The CT5-V Blackwing features a lightweight carbon-ceramic brake kit, which greatly improves heat management efficiency, as well as greatly enhances wear resistance in the most severe conditions on the track, while reducing unsprung and rotating mass weight by lowering unsightly weight. Suspension is reduced by 53 lb (24 kg), and the rotating mass is reduced by 62 lb (28 kg).
Driver Options
The Cadillac in the vehicle allows the driver to press the “V” button, which allows him to choose the appropriate driving modes for him on the tracks and on the roads, which contributes to increasing the comfort he enjoys, and enhancing his feeling of ease while sitting inside the cabin.
automatic transmission
A 10-speed automatic transmission with electronic control is standard on the car and has been tuned to complement the two-person experience of each individual model.
This system features a manual or click shift mode that enables the driver to use the integrated magnesium shift knobs to select and retain the desired gear, and a sport mode that provides a real-time translation of current driving conditions, adjusting the transmission level to reduce driver engagement in shift operations and improve performance, while maintaining active driving dynamics.
The model includes an upgraded version of the electronic limited-slip differential, which is lower in weight and has been optimized for each driving mode and style of the performance traction management system.
This system provides more control of the rear differential than a conventional open or mechanical limited-slip differential, and enhanced traction by automatically delivering torque to the rear wheel for maximum traction during sharp turns, with the ability to send up to 1,475 lb-ft. (2000 Nm) of torque locked across the axle, with a high-performance differential cooler, and an aluminum packing replace the forged iron packing of the previous generation, reducing the mass by more than 22 lbs (10 kg) , as well as an exclusive built-in heat exchanger to enhance the cooling process.
