Auto review: American muscle with Cadillac’s CT5-V Blackwing

This is what earth-shattering power is all about.

Cadillac, the great American luxury brand, has had a lot of success providing ground-pounding power to its array of vehicles. For example, its fan favorite CTS-V has been a chart topper. When it comes to American power, someone has to keep up with the rest, and in typical Cadillac fashion, the 2022 CT5-V Blackwing is really a thing of beauty.

The CT5-V is really a thrill of a ride. It boasts a monster 6.2-liter supercharged V-8 engine known as the Blackwing and a six-speed manual transmission, with 668 horsepower and 659 lb.-ft. of torque. I can’t think of a comparable American four-door production vehicle.
