What is the Cadillac DTS’ top speed?

I’m looking to buy a car for my teenage son. A guy that lives down the road is selling his Cadillac DTS on the cheap, so I’m thinking about buying it. I just want to make sure that it doesn’t have more power than my son can handle. What is the top speed of the Cadillac DTS?

The
Cadillac DTS
was the successor to the long-lasting
Cadillac DeVille
, offering plenty of luxury features and great speed. The top speed of the Cadillac DTS is a whopping 160 mph, which might be a bit much for a
teenage driver
.
If you’re worried about your son’s safety, the Cadillac CTS gets a four-star safety rating out of five stars from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, so at least you have that for some peace of mind.
