Cadillac CT5 [Official] Cadillac CT5


The Cadillac CT5 is a mid-size luxury car manufactured and marketed by General Motors under the Cadillac brand since 2019. It is the replacement for the Cadillac CTS.
I must say that I really liked these:

I recall having taken a close look at the STS-inside and out-at the 1993 IAA venue in Frankfurt. It certainly impressed me. And it was one of the very, very few cars that GM North America was able to actually sell here in Europe. Very few units-but still, one would spot an STS every now and then. They were distributed via large Opel dealerships, I recall.

There are many Cadillacs I like from the past. They used to make some really interesting, pretty cars, but they can never keep it going. That STS was a car I liked, but it it was FWD trying to challenge the RWD sports sedan class. Cadillac had such a rich and proud heritage full of innovations and they pissed it all away. One failed vehicle after another. The CT4 and CT5 will be cancelled at some point and the new excuse will be we're going all EV. ATS and CTS should have never been cancelled.

I am still annoyed with what came of the CT6. There was so much promise there. Imagine the Escalade interior in that with the Blackwing V8. Truthfully, it wouldn't sell in substantial numbers.

EVs has the potential to be the big reset for Cadillac (and other flailing brands) if done right. Only time will tell.
 
With such a well-made front, so Cadillac, seeing that awful profile unrelated to the brand, generic and between Chinese and Korean makes me angry.

Classic like when you accept anything because run out of ideas, all this I hope turns around with the Celestic, already with the Liriq without being anything from the other world at least it is original, consistent and fits with a lot of presence, and I reaffirm a lot of presence in photos and videos, I guess even more IRL.

The 472-hp CT4-V and 668-hp CT5-V Blackwing are commemorating the performance division's birthday 20 years after the 400-hp CTS-V first arrived in 2004.
  • Cadillac is making some tweaks to the CT4-V Blackwing and CT5-V Blackwing for 2024.
  • There are new colors available, plus 20th anniversary graphics that celebrate two decades of V-series vehicles.
  • These tweaks also apply to the lower-powered CT4-V and CT5-V models for 2024.
Cadillac's V badge first arrived 20 years ago on the 2004 CTS-V, which was powered by a 400-hp 5.7-liter V-8 engine and got the V-series performance division started with a bang. To celebrate this anniversary, Cadillac is offering a few commemorative tweaks for the 2024 CT4-V and CT5-V models, plus newly available colors and a few other tweaks.

All 2024 CT4-V and CT5-V sedans, including the top-dog Blackwing models, will have a 20th Anniversary graphic on the grille and rocker panels, plus a special startup animation in the digital gauge cluster. Newly available colors include Velocity Red, Cyber Yellow Metallic (pictured at top), Coastal Blue Metallic, and Black Diamond Tricoat. For the 472-hp CT4-V Blackwing and 668-hp CT5-V Blackwing, Cadillac is also adding a "Blackwing" badge below the V logo to further differentiate these more powerful variants from their lesser brethren.

Prices are only up slightly compared with last year. The CT4-V starts at $48,490 and the 360-hp CT5-V at $52,890. The CT4-V Blackwing costs $62,890 to start and the CT5-V Blackwing starts at $94,890. Cadillac's Super Cruise hands-free driving tech is a new option for the CT5-V Blackwing, and it costs $6785 in total because it requires adding the optional ten-speed automatic transmission plus two driver-assist packages.
