Yet now they are going EV with names, so I am sure they will have 400, 500 and 600 newton meters of torque on top of the 400, 500 and 600 kW power motors. -
Does GM have a FWD transmission that can handle 400 hp? I guess they can resurrect the XTS V-sport powertrain for an XT5 or XT6, but would either of those be any good? Or would they torque steer all over the place and have reliability issues? But again, I hear the "Cadillac could do it" but at the end of the day they don't do it. And others don't either (Acura, Lexus etc) but then you see a Lincoln Aviator with 400 hp base and 495 hp as an option, when Cadillac maxes out at 310 hp because that is all the front wheels can handle. If Cadillac was going to do all this stuff, have the brand product line, or have good marketing, it would have happened by now. -
Only the Escalade has a chassis at Cadillac- all the rest are unibodies. -
Hello McFly, The Chassis can handle more than 300 lb-ft of Torque. GM just has not built the motor tranny combo to go above that as you pointed out, they have not exceeded above their potential yet! Valid point and thank you my friend you are right, I was thinking myself with my comment and should have clarified it. Many of us I think tend to think of ourselves and leave comments that are very wide open to interpretation. We all should clarify ourselves versus the market. They have Excitement that others will find, but for myself not yet!

OK- I should have assumed, but you didn't state you were talking about you as a consumer. I can easily say ferrari or lamborghini doesn't build anything exciting (because I have no intention of paying $100K+ for a vehicle).
