The V-series version of the Cadillac CT5 sedan starts at $48,690.

It's powered by a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V-6 engine that makes 360 horsepower and 405 lb-ft of torque.

2020 CT5 models will arrive at dealerships at the beginning of 2020.

Cadillac has announced a price for its medium-spicy CT5-V sports sedan. This higher-performance version of the CT5 will start at $48,690 when it goes on sale in early 2020. Rear-wheel drive, a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V-6 engine, and a 10-speed automatic transmission are standard, and all-wheel drive is a $2600 option.

The CT5-V's engine also makes a bit more power than Cadillac initially said, with the official numbers now coming in at 360 horsepower and 405 lb-ft of torque, 5 hp and 5 lb-ft more than was originally promised. It's important to remember that this CT5-V is not the full-blown V you might be expecting; that top-dog performance variant is still in the works and should arrive sometime next year with significantly more power and a more aggressively tuned chassis.

The twin-turbo V-6 will also be available in non-V CT5 models, as the Premium Luxury trim offers a lower-output version of this engine as an option. It starts at $45,190 and makes do with only 335 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque. Pricing for four-cylinder CT5 2.0T models was announced earlier this year and starts at $37,890.

We haven't driven the CT5-V yet, but on paper it stacks up well against the German competition, all of which are several thousand dollars more expensive. The 382-hp BMW M340i starts at $54,995, the 349-hp Audi S4 starts at $51,195, and the 385-hp Mercedes-AMG C43 starts at $56,945.
