New Cadillac Escalade-V takes it’s place as GM’s most powerful petrol car ever with nearly 700 horsepower from the supercharged V8. The Official numbers come in at 682 hp and 653 lb-ft of torque thanks to a big 2.65L liquid-intercooled TVS supercharger which spins up to 13,500 rpm and delivers 10 pounds of boost.
All that power has a lot of bulk to move around with the Escalade-V weighing in at over 6,000 lbs, making this a very heavy SUV. Despite this, Cadillac have managed to clock a 0-60 mph time of 4.4 seconds and a quarter mile drag time of 12.74 seconds at 110 mph.
