Speaking to Autoblog, General Motors product head Mark Reuss had some interesting thoughts on the 2016 Cadillac CT6, which we saw debut last week at the New York Auto Show. And since many were wondering if the CT6 will be offered as a hybrid, it sure does look that way, if Reuss’ comments are any suggestion.
“We’ve really got to wait until we finish rounding out the portfolio,” said Reuss. “The Shanghai show is where you should look for all of it. So stay tuned.” Cadillac itself tried to play it coy, though a spokesman told Autoblog that the automaker “will add variants.” Confirmed at New York were two V6 engine options and a turbo four, and aside from the possible addition of a hybrid for the Shanghai auto show, Reuss also teased the possibility of a high-performance V-Series CT6. For now, however, Cadillac wants to prioritize the release of the four-cylinder CT6 and the two V6-powered variants.
“The architecture is certainly capable of doing it,” Reuss added. “The question is who’s going to buy the CT6? What kind of person? And do we need a V-Series off of that is the question we haven’t answered yet. It’s certainly capable of doing it … we’ve certainly thought about it.”
