Cadillac STS-V Performance Overview
Cadillac’s STS-V occupied a brief, single-model-year performance niche in 2006 to 2006, and the available test record reflects that narrow run. Across 3 verified tests from 2006, every result comes from the same basic configuration: a gasoline-powered STS-V sedan using the supercharged LC3 V8 rated at 469 hp. In that compact sample, 0-60 times range from 4.6 to 4.8 seconds, with an average of 4.73 seconds, while quarter-mile performance averages 13.33 seconds at 107.2 mph.
Because the model did not evolve across multiple generations or year updates, its performance story is essentially the story of its launch specification. The quickest recorded run, a 4.6-second 0-60 by the 2006 Sedan, also set the model’s benchmark at introduction, and the same trim produced the best quarter-mile result of 13.2 seconds at 107 mph. Another 2006 Sedan test returned 4.8 seconds to 60 mph, framing the small spread seen across independent testing.
Today, the STS-V stands as a one-year, supercharged V8 sedan documented only in gasoline form, with its current and all-time best remaining the same: the 2006 Sedan at 4.6 seconds to 60 mph.
