Overview

The 2017 Cadillac ATS-V Sedan is a compact luxury sedan offered in a single trim, starting off at a base MSRP of $60,695. For that price, it mainly competes with the Mercedes-Benz AMG C 63 Sedan, the BMW M3 Sedan, and the Infiniti Q50 RED SPORT 400 Sedan. The ATS-V Sedan offers 2 powertrains. It is a 3.6L twin-turbocharged V8 engine making 464 horsepower and 445 lb-ft of torque. However, there is a choice between a 6-speed manual transmission and an 8-speed automatic transmission. The ATS-V Sedan reaches 60 mph from zero in 4.2 seconds with the manual transmission, which gets pumped up to 3.9 seconds with the automatic. The ATS-V Sedan manages a combined fuel economy of 19 mpg regardless of the transmission. While we're on the topic of choices, the 8 striking colors the ATS-V Sedan comes in really pull you towards itself.

Buying Advice

The 2017 Cadillac ATS-V Sedan is a super-powerful and fun-to-drive sedan offered in a single trim. It is a well-loaded trim with plenty of luxury features. We recommend getting the Driver Awareness Package that adds some important driver assistance features including IntelliBeam headlamps, Lane Change Alert, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Forward Collision Alert, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Side Blind Zone Alert, and rain-sensing wipers.
