The good folks at LLN have spotted, via handy telephoto lense, some of the interior of the Theta Premium-based crossover that we’ve all be calling the BRX/BTX (latest I’ve seen in the name guessing game for this model is CTX)...

Now, we have an idea of the CTS-inspired dash that will make it into production (if you go back to our Provoq concept photos, you’ll see that this looks like exactly the dash from the concept – right down to the single, round center gauge pod.

Recently, GM’s Chevy division has announced that the new ZR-1 Corvette will pack significantly more than the 620hp that was previously tossed around as the expected output. Ultimately, the number has blossomed to 638hp (a 3% increase).

This 6.2l supercharged V-8 is a hand-built version of the LSA V-8 that will be used in the CTS-V.

The folks over at Edmunds’ Inside Line have speculated that the 3% increase might cascade down to the CTS version as well…leading them to speculate that the 550hp number Cadillac has spoken of in the past to possibly reach as high as 567hp at the V’s launch.

Of course, for enthusiasts like you and I, 550 is nice…and 567 is just icing on cake.

We’ll know more in a few months when the CTS-V engineers are done.

Then a professional video of the V being thrashed on the track:

The good folks over at Cadillac have posted some pretty cool, behind the scenes, videos from the engineers developing the CTS-V.

The major lesson you’ll take from these is the work they’ve done to make the car consistent, controllable, and predictable when being driven hard.

I’ve embedded the 3 videos thus far below for your enjoyment.

Apparent from these are the sporty rear window and basic proportions that will make the new CTS wagon (CTW?) as stylish as the sedan and coupe the preceeded it.

Expect this to hit the roads mid-2009 as a 2010.
