Overview
What the Calais starts, is finished off in the "V". Also sporting a handsome price reduction, it increases important safety features and passenger comfort levels. Additions are Forward Collision Alert, Lane Departure Warning and interior comforts like multi adjustable powered and heated driver's seat. This also where the 6.0-litre V8 comes into play. Where the lower specced Calais gets to knock on the door of renowned up-market cars, the Calais V has its foot firmly, irremovably placed right inside. Be it sedan or wagon, it too is a well conceived vehicle deserving of serious consideration from many perspectives.
