Cadillac To Begin Offering Four Cylinder Engines In Some Models

Cadillac To Begin Offering Four Cylinder Engines In Some Models

Cadillac will offer four-cylinder engines in a number of future models. The compact engines should make for a stark contrast with the dinosaur-gulping euphoria that is the company’s supercharged LSA V-8 in the CTS-V.

Unlike Cadillac’s other forays into engine downsizing—including one motor, the 8-6-4, that was at least intended to downsize itself while in use—this attempt should be quite a lot more functional. The upcoming full-size Cadillac XTS and compact ATS sport sedan sedan will offer turbocharged Ecotec four-cylinder engines; we’d expect these units to make between 220 and 260 hp—although we hope they’ll be at the top end of that scale.

Hopefully it's an upgrade from the one in the Solstice.

The new turbos are direct injected and probably have a few other improvements.
