The ATS-V looks the some piece of a BMW executioner, with a huge grille opening to nourish more air to the turbocharged motor. The hood is carbon fiber and has a practical vent that hauls hot ventilate of the motor while diminishing lift at pace. Michelin Super Sport tires cover the stunned 18-inch wheels and out once more there’s an extensive spoiler for expanded downforce.
Inside the ATS-V, there are accessible 16-way-flexible Recaro front seats with movable reinforces and loads of sueded trim. Cadillac’s CUE runs the infotainment characteristics, and there will be carbon fiber and track bundles that incorporate the execution information recorder from the Corvette.
