cars news 10: 2017 Cadillac CT6 Plug-In Hybrid Priced at $76,090

The Cadillac CT6 Plug-In Hybrid looks to finally be on its way. Caddy has announced that the range-topping PHEV will hit dealer lots in spring of 2017 sporting over 400 miles of total driving range.

Power comes from a combination of two electric motors working and the tried-and-true 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder found in other Cadillac models. Each electric motor provides 100 hp and total system output is 335 hp and a stonking 432 lb-ft of torque.

On a full battery, the CT6 Hybrid can cover 30 miles on electric power alone, reaching a top speed of 78 mph. Once the battery runs down, the car acts as a traditional hybrid, returning 65 mpge.

Thanks to the tire-roasting torque, the PHEV’s straight-line performance is on par with the CT6’s 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V-6. The PHEV cracks 60 mph in an impressive 5.2 seconds, on its way to a top speed of 150 mph.

Prices begin at $76,090, including destination. Deliveries of Cadillac’s only PHEV begin in spring of next year.
