Brembo North America Inc. showcased two major original equipment fitments on one vehicle at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit today.
The 2009 Cadillac CTS-V will be fitted with a unique Brembo brake system for the first time in North America. The system features the following:
* six-piston, aluminum, monobloc calipers with 14.6-inch dual-cast rotors in the front;
* four-piston, aluminum calipers with 14.4-inch, one-piece rotors in the rear.
Unlike traditional cast-iron discs, dual-cast discs are made of two materials: heat-resistant cast iron and lightweight aluminum.
Brembo also is a supplier to Harley Davidson in North America.
