Cadillac's latest special editions honor the brand's first appearance at Le Mans, which took place in 1950.
Cadillac will build 101 CT5-V Blackwing Le Monstre Special Editions and 50 CT4-V Blackwing Petit Pataud Special Editionswith a pair of special editions based on the CT4 and CT5 sedans and honoring the brand's history in the French endurance classic.The special edition based on the CT5-V Blackwing is known as the Le Monstre Special Edition, and as the name suggests celebrates the heavily modified Cadillac Series 61 known as Le Monstre.
The two Cadillac special editions feature unique touches like blue tinted carbon fiber, blue brake calipers, and various blue accents in the cabin. The cars also come with custom badging, custom door sill plates, and a serialized plaque on the B-pillar. No change was made to the mechanicals. The CT4-V Blackwing rocks a twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V-6 that generates a peak 472 hp, all of which is routed to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual transmission or a 10-speed automatic. The CT5-V Blackwing ups the ante with a supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 rated at 668 hp. Here too drive goes to the rear wheels only, via a 6-speed manual or 10-speed automatic.
Cadillac competed in this year's Le Mans race with three of its V.Series.R LMDh race cars. They finished seventh, 15th, and 19th overall.
