The same six-speed automatic transmission as found in the STS-V does duty in the Cadillac XLR-V, similarly equipped with technology dubbed Performance Algorithm Shifting (PAS), Performance Algorithm Liftfoot (PAL), and Driver Shift Control (DSC). Additionally, the Cadillac XLR-V is outfitted with bigger brakes, a modified magnetic ride control suspension, and larger 19-inch wheels shod with run-flat Pirelli Eufori tires measuring 235/45 up front and 255/40 in the back.
