The cost of a fully-equipped CT4-V Blackwing is $87,775.
This week, the new Blackwing sedans were unveiled by Cadillac. The CT4_V Blackwing has a twin-turbocharged, V6 engine. While the CT5_V Blackwing is a muscle sedan with a powerful supercharged V8, the CT5_V Blackwing takes the lead with its meaty V8. Cadillac did not disclose the starting prices of both models. However, an official Blackwing configurator and options list are available.
Cadillac Society claims that they have the pricing information for fully-optioned models. The CT4-V Blackwing is alleged to cost $84,875. The CT5-V Blackwing is a larger model and costs $121,985. The report does not mention whether this includes destination fees.
These figures suggest that GM will offer a lot of additional equipment for both cars if they are correct. The CT4-V Blackwing is priced at $59990. This means that there are approximately $25,000 worth options. The CT5-V Blackwing starts at $84,990, and has a wider range. The starting prices of both the CT4-V Blackwing and CT5-V Blackwing include a $995 delivery charge. We find it quite interesting that a fully loaded CT4-V Blackwing is less than its base price. Some of these options costs include upgraded brake packages and automatic transmissions.
It is also worth noting that Cadillac’s CT5-V Blackwing pricing remains well below its primary competitor BMW. The starts at $103,500 and rises to $111,000. If you add the Competition package, it will go up to $111,000. The Bimmer is fully equipped and can reach speeds of over $140,000. However, you get all-wheel drive. The M5 Competition has 617 horsepower while the CT5V Blackwing, which is 668 horsepower, is the most powerful Cadillac ever.
Although the M5 can reach 60 mph faster than the M3, Cadillac has a rear-wheel drive and standard-issue manual transmission. This is a Cadillac goal. It is not disillusioned with BMW’s direction. The M5 is impressive, but buyers do not have the option of a manual transmission or pure rear-wheel drive. Cadillac would be the safe haven for nostalgic enthusiasts, who could have predicted that?
This summer the Blackwing twins will be available for purchase, with 500 launch models. There is also interest in the manual approach. Cadillac had 500 reservations (250 each model) within minutes of the official debut.
