Cadillac CTS-V produces 1.000 hp thanks to Hennessey Performance

Buying a Cadillac with the amount of power of a Bugatti Veyron 16.4? That's possible! Hennessey's Performance specialists went working on the V8 of the Cadillac CTS-V and installed an enormous supercharger.

The newest Cadillac CTS-V, model year 2016, is the most powerful Cadillac in the 112 years of history of the brand but that didn't withhold Hennessey to lay their hands on this monster. Next to the update for the beastlike V8, the exterior also got a makeover. The most important thing is the 2.9 liter supercharger on the engine. Other adjustments are new pistons, crankshafts, cylinder heads, injectors and a new fuel pump. They also changed the complete exhaust system, headers and the ECU. The engine is adjusted in a way that it will keep on working even now it produces 1.000 hp.

The exterior stands out thanks to the widened fenders which make room for 19 inch wheels. Of course we also see a lot of carbon fiber components on the exterior of the Cadillac.

What's up with the warranty? Hennessey gives you a warranty of 18.000 kilometers for this 1.000 hp strong beast. That's less than normal but that doesn't really surprise us with such a powerful engine.
