The engine

LGY

3.0L Twin-Turbo V6

Cadillac's 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 blends smooth, refined cruising with genuine muscle when pushed, its compact turbos spooling quickly for strong, linear midrange shove.

Part of GM's modern dual-overhead-cam V6 family, it was engineered to give Cadillac a refined, efficient six to rival the German turbo-sixes in cars like the CT5.
