The 2009 Cadillac CTS-V is set to hit showrooms this autumn, and GM has decided to release the first promotional video for this performance sedan. This car competes against the German performance sedans such as BMW M5, Mercedes E63 AMG, and Audi RS6 by packing a 6.2 liter super-charged V8 that produces over 550 hp and 550 lb-ft of torque. Sounds very impressive, but we have never seen it in action until now.

The two-minute video boasts some of the best virtues of the CTS-V such as the Gen-6 Eaton Supercharger, Brembo 6-piston brakes, dual-mode Magnetic Ride Control, Tremec 6-speed auto or 6-speed manual transmission, and many more.

Featuring an Americanized bass-heavy soundtrack, we get to see some good exterior perspectives of the car with plenty of hot driving scenes. On the whole, GM’s marketing team has done a relatively convincing job this time around.
