<p>The CT6 is also offered with an advanced plug-in hybrid powertrain ($86,770) that delivers up to 643 kilometres of total driving range. The powertrain, consisting of a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder combined with a rear-wheel drive two-motor electric variable transmission, produces an estimated total system output of 335 hp and 432 lb-ft of torque. Each electric motor produces 100 hp (74.5 kW) of power. The hybrid powertrain’s combined total output can launch the CT6 to 96 km/h in 5.2 seconds and a top speed of 241 km/h, while on electric power alone, it can reach a top speed of 125 km/h. In electric mode, the range for the CT6 Plug-In is up to 48 kilometres, which makes it ideal for most daily commutes, while combing engine and battery output maximizes fuel efficiency at higher speeds. The CT6 Plug-In Hybrid’s pricing and equipment are comparable to the Premium Luxury model and include such features as a rear seat infotainment system, Enhanced Night Vision and rear camera mirror as standard equipment.</p>
