The 2016 Cadillac CTS-V isn’t the only model being tested by the American automaker today.

AutoGuide.com‘s spy photographers have also caught the upcoming Cadillac ATS-V coupe being benchmarked against the BMW M3 on the roads surrounding the Nürburgring. It appears that both next-generation V models will be hitting the legendary race track in the next day or two for some calibration.

The new ATS-V coupe is expected to ride on the American automaker’s Alpha platform and will likely be powered by a 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6 engine with around 420 hp in order to compete with the new BMW M4 and its 425-hp twin-turbo six-cylinder engine.

Expect more spy photos to come as both Cadillac models take to the Nürburgring for some hardcore testing.

      The ATS kills the 335i, and that's comin from someone who drives a 335i lol this ATS-V should be pretty nasty. The M4 looks sharp, but I'm expectin the same outcome haha I'm hopin they do do something with the interior mainly the cluster, it just looks boring and dated, especially for how nice the rest of the car is
