Cadillac XLR-V Specs and Price

The Cadillac XLR-V is the high performance version of the Cadillac XLR. It was first introduced in 2005. It is the successor to the Cadillac Allanté, produced from 1987 to 1993.

Cadillac gave the public its first glimpse of the XLR-V in its Super Bowl commercial, which aired February 6, 2005. Super Bowl MVP, Deion Branch was also awarded an XLR. The car was formally introduced at the 2005 New York International Auto Show.

The XLR-V uses the same Northstar V8 as the STS-V, though output is down somewhat. For the XLR-V, the engine is certified by the SAE to produce 443 hp (330 kW) and 414 lb·ft (561 N·m). The supercharger and four intercoolers are built into the intake manifold. A six-speed automatic transmission, larger brakes from the Z51 Corvette, and 19-inch wheels will also be used.
