Cadillac's V-One Is a Real Le Mans Hypercar, Not a Show Car in Racing Livery

· 1 min read

Cadillac has confirmed that its V-One concept is being engineered as a genuine customer-spec Le Mans Hypercar, not simply one of the brand's factory racers wearing a different paint scheme. The program's own engineer says matching the capability of Cadillac Racing's factory prototypes required solving real engineering problems, not cosmetic ones. That distinction is what separates the V-One from a concept built purely for the show stand.

With reporting from The Drive.
