Craftsman doesn't currently offer a dedicated right-angle drill on the V20 platform. If you're locked into the V20 ecosystem and need to drill in tight spaces, a right-angle attachment for your existing V20 drill-driver is the workaround. For a proper right-angle drill, you'd need to step outside the V20 line.
Craftsman V20 (20V) Platform
This is an attachment, not a standalone tool. It mounts in your existing V20 drill chuck. Torque is limited by the attachment's gear mechanism, so it won't match a dedicated right-angle drill on performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can a right-angle attachment replace a dedicated right-angle drill?
For occasional light-duty work, like drilling a few holes behind a cabinet, it's adequate. For boring through joists or running self-feed bits, an attachment lacks the torque and rigidity of a purpose-built right-angle drill. The attachment wobbles under heavy load.
Will Craftsman release a dedicated V20 right-angle drill?
No announcements as of early 2026. The V20 platform focuses on core tools for homeowners. Dedicated right-angle drills are primarily trade tools, and Craftsman's parent company (Stanley Black and Decker) sells those under the DeWalt brand instead.
