Bruce Nunnally Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 Cadillac's Station Wagon Comes With A Feature That Makes It Incredibly Fun To Drive We just spent the better part of a week in the 2013 Cadillac CTS-V Wagon, a car that, despite being a station wagon, is hugely powerful and a tremendous amount of fun to drive.

airmike Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 I see the lateral g arrows, does it also do g's for acceleration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadillac Jim Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 I see the lateral g arrows, does it also do g's for acceleration? Unfortunately, no. I would like to see something on the big multipurpose screen like the display on performance meters. The guy in the article wants the lateral acceleration reading on a HUD. -- Click Here for CaddyInfo page on "How To" Read Your OBD Codes-- Click Here for my personal page to download my OBD code list as an Excel file, plus other Cadillac data -- See my CaddyInfo car blogs: 2011 CTS-V, 1997 ETC Yes, I was Jims_97_ETC before I changed cars.

Texas Jim Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 Because the mileage and stuff is boring, and the lateral acceleration tells me what my traction margins are. But you can feel the traction limits when you have to turn the the steering wheel the OTHER WAY and give it MORE GAS.... LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadillac Jim Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 It's easy to go over 100% without realizing it sometimes. Also, it's kind of fun to note that you just hooked an 0.6 g right turn. -- Click Here for CaddyInfo page on "How To" Read Your OBD Codes-- Click Here for my personal page to download my OBD code list as an Excel file, plus other Cadillac data -- See my CaddyInfo car blogs: 2011 CTS-V, 1997 ETC Yes, I was Jims_97_ETC before I changed cars.

Cadillac Jim Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 For negative g's, turn the other way. -- Click Here for CaddyInfo page on "How To" Read Your OBD Codes-- Click Here for my personal page to download my OBD code list as an Excel file, plus other Cadillac data -- See my CaddyInfo car blogs: 2011 CTS-V, 1997 ETC Yes, I was Jims_97_ETC before I changed cars.
