in the US with more power for $10,580 less before destination fees. 

The regular XTS has been on sale in the US for nearly a year, and the Vsport will go on sale in August. It will be offered with either rear-wheel or all-wheel drive. 

Compared to the naturally aspirated version of the V6, the turbo has a new cylinder block casting, stronger connecting rods, differently shaped pistons and unique cylinder heads.

“The addition of the new Cadillac Twin Turbo expands and elevates the XTS luxury sedan. This is a compelling enhancement to what is already one of the most technically advanced sedans in our history,” said Bob Ferguson, vice president of Global Cadillac.

The standard XTS goes for $45,525, and the Vsport will be $63,020 when it goes on sale.
