Can The Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing Take On The Ford Mustang Shelby GT500? | Carscoops carscoops
When Cadillac unveiled the CT5-V Blackwing, it made headlines with its performance numbers. But are they enough to take on another American performance car?
The Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is famed for being the most powerful production Mustang ever to leave the factory thanks to its 760 hp and 625 lb-ft of torque. By contrast, the Cadillac all of a sudden looks a little less frightful since its 6.2-liter supercharged V8 makes “just” 668 hp .has that in spades. The engine manages to generate a startling 659 lb-ft of torque, which should help it off the line.
Edmunds, which published the video, calls the race a “U-Drag.” As the name suggests, the race track looks a bit like a wonky letter U and demands that the cars complete a quarter-mile drag race, go around a hairpin turn, then race back down the drag strip, which replicates the circumstances of a rolling race. All in all, it’s supposed to be a little more demanding than a straight-up drag race and give a better idea of how good of an all-rounder a vehicle is.
