I'm in the UK and always saw the Cadilac brand as premium. I'd love one of these, all the extras seem baked in and I love the interior. It's seems great value for your money and I think you should just go ahead and buy one, protect America jobs from going to China. Best wishes to all American buyers, do your duty and just get the finance and buy one. Quentin
Recently purchase a 2024 CT5V and couldn’t be happier. You can change personalities on demand and the torque is fantastic. For most of us it’s the acceleration that matters not a top speed of 160 as I’ll never do that. Let me have a smooth ride most of the time and put it into V mode when I want to punch it and get around traffic on the highway
Can I ask why you went with the ct5v over the ct5 premium luxury with a V6? I've planned on the ct5v but I didn't realize you can get just the ct5 with a V6 engine for 10k cheaper until now
@@SamHalesJr I went with the V for the additional HP and Torque and some of the other features like brakes, slip differential and the extra drive modes. Also a big reason was the look of all black grill. I didn’t test drive thr premium luxury model but I know the sound and exhaust is also different. If that stuff doesn’t matter I would say you’ll be very happy with the Premium Luxury or other trim levels as it is a smooth ride and great car.
I just bought a 2024 almost identical to this one for my wife to use as a daily driver. We absolutely love it. Good power and good MPG. Very comfortable and handles very well. Personally I cannot stand FWD based vehicles so I love the rear drive biased longitudinally mounted engine set up. We got the V6 and IMO its a much nicer motor. The 2.0l is actually not bad in daily driving and pretty reasonable power but its a bit rough and noisy especially if you get higher up in the revs. The V6 is much smoother and quieter. Honestly you don't really notice the extra power from the V6 until you get into the revs and then when it comes on you really feel the power difference. In fairness to the 2.0 it does feel like its more than its 237hp rating and the power does come on quite low in the rev range thanks to the twin scroll turbo. The V6 is a sweet motor but it does have twin parallel more traditional single scroll turbos (ie one for each cylinder bank) so the power isn't quite instantaneous but still very good. It's a beautiful looking car that's gets compliments all the time and IMO you'd have to spend substantially more $ to get something as nice. We cross shopped a Volvo S60 and Audi A5 sportback when we were looking. Both really nice cars. The CT5 handled much better than the S60 due to its FWD platform. The V6 CT5 was noticeably more powerful than either. I definitely love the Quattro AWD system in the Audi and perhaps some of the interior materials were a bit nicer in the imports but they are also significantly more money and I actually enjoyed driving the CT5 more than the others.
I absolutely appreciate how instead of trying to tell the manufacturer where their car competes, you understood the positioning of the vehicle and explained where it competes perfectly. This 2025 CT5 is absolutely gorgeous. The front end truly has that Cadillac presence now for sure and love the sleek and sophisticated, side profile, and its stance. The rear end is sexy/clean. I like the interior updates, they improved the quality & technology significantly, the materials like the leather around the display looks softer and more supple than before.
@@bethdixon501yes! Cadillac is a luxury brand and they should celebrate chrome not hide it. I appreciate their tinted Galvano chrome instead of the extra bright stuff Lincoln uses. It looks classier to me.
@@georgeparcels9471 hey my friend I feel the same way I wish they hadn’t discontinued the CT6 I would rather have that but they’re only going to make that over there in Asia
The 4 cylinder gets 4 mpg better than the V6, I wouldn't call that minor. With the 17-gallon fuel tank, you'll get an extra 68 miles per fill up (roughly).
@@Luckimee my daily is a 2017 ct6 3.6 v6 but not twin turbo and where I’m at in Dallas full tank lasts me about a full week and I keep it in sports mood my wife just got the 25 ct5 3.0 twin turbo I guess we’ll see the difference since the ct5 is 600 lbs lighter
That's true but it boils down to an extra $500/year in fuel for the average driver. There are people out there who will pay thousands for modifications to their vehicles that eke out maybe 30 hp. If you value power and sporty driving, the 3.0TT is a no-brainer. If you don't, get the 2.0T
Like it. A 6 cylinder to me is acceptable in a luxury car. Not a 4. It looks like the 6 is a great competitor in this class. Lots of power and technology and love the Cadillac luxury.
At this MSRP, Super Cruise comes standard and it performs amazingly from the videos I’ve seen. What would be the MSRP for a BMW or Audi or Mercedes with similar self driving technology? Can the European self driving technology even compete with this or that from Tesla?
Exactly, I’ve been trying to figure out why anyone would say this wasn’t worth it’s increase over the base Luxury with the 2.0t (which I really like). Supercruise continues to work and will receive OTA updates throughout the life of the vehicle regardless of if the owner wants to subscribe to use it, it’s there forever. So as standard equipment it will add lots of resale value, even with higher mileage. Great move!
The V is the better buy IMO as it gives you MRC 4.0 and the handling/ride are tremendously improved. I have a RWD V with platinum trim and it's an amazing driver. The Premium Luxury is no slouch but it's not as sporty a driver as the V. It's amazing how different the two trims are.
That’s the difference between something getting an engine upgrade and something getting the _V-series_ treatment which is much more than just the engine upgrade.
@@spinedoc893 Yeah but it doesn't close automatically. A power open/close trunk lid is a luxury feature and this is supposed to be a luxury car. The German competitors offer it - just not at this price point.
Excellent review! Very reasonable priced for a Turbo V6 w/ 10 speed real transmission....The blue or green with the tan leather would be my choice....tire profile is too low for me with those wheels, but overall, a very nice sedan!
I honestly wish everyone would STRICTLY compare this to the E Class/5 Series models. I know it’s a tweener but it only feels right. I’m not arguing with any of you either.
In my opinion, if people did compare against those vehicles, Cadillac would honestly win because it's 10 grand less with more standard features and technology
I have the 2022 CT5, and get compliments all the time. And as far as I’m concerned, the older front fascia looks better and more classy than the 2025. And in the interior they put in a bigger wider screen, because in today’s world, people buy a car based on screen size. Other than the screen size, it’s exactly the same car as a few years ago…but because of the screen, all of a sudden it’s a much better car. Give me a break. All these reviewers have the same talking points…these reviewers are predictable and pathetic..Also forgot to mention how they have their heads so far up the ass of those German money pits, overpriced junk cars, BMW and Mercedes…
mpressive car, but I think the price increase, and "tweener" status don't help Cadillac. It's tough to pick this over a 5-series/E-class, or even a 3-series/C-class, and the car itself being sort of confused in its positioning doesn't help. Cadillac just needs to be clear with its market and competitors, and do it confidently do it better - not bigger, not cheaper. GM makes great cars when they want to (Blackwings, Escalade, Corvette, Hummer, etc) - bring the A-game, Cadillac. Be the Cadillac of the market.
So Cadillac offers the “Sport” option with the smallest 2.0 4, WHY? BMW and Audi are more but resale after 3-5 years willl. E so much higher with those over the Cadillac
Beautiful car … Engine sounds amazing. Some comments & questions. - the rubber on those 20’s looks mighty thin for your pothole filled New England winter roads…Is there a spare tire in this vehicle ? Is this vehicle RWD or FWD ? How about the sound system ? How many speakers and does it sound comparable to those rival brands you mentioned ?
Hey! Hope you are doing good! Sales Consultant here, love the all new CT5! Like many luxury brands this car does not offer a spare tire, these are available in RWD or AWD. The CT5 comes standard with a 15 speaker AKG premium sound system which is new for this year on CT5. I have experienced this sound system in the Cadillac Lyriq and it is absolutely amazing! I would highly recommend you go and test drive one of these vehicles for yourself, I think you’ll be impressed by the new CT5!
It also had a higher MSRP. I went from a gen 2 2010 CTS premium to a 2023 CT5-V platinum and I didn't pay much more for the current ride than I did 13 years earlier for the gen 2. And this one blows the doors off any previous non-V CTS - with the possible exception of the CTS V-Sport. I agree though, that there are a few luxury items that are MIA but that probably explains the reasonable MSRP.
I don’t understand the emphasis on large wheels which compromises comfort and raises, substantially, the certainty of blowouts. The argument is that the wheels look nice. People realize that cars are driven, right? They are not parked in a living room.
How don’t you understand it? Larger wheels are more stylish, sportier, and give the luxury vehicle a more upscale appearance. You don’t wear sneakers with tuxedos, do you? It not only looks amazing but thanks to the chassis and suspension it also rides and drives well too. So I guess you’re just complaining for the sake of complaining.
It's a handsome car but I wish it had some more American styleing cues if it's built to look like a BMW/Mercedes. Why don't I just buy a European car in that case.
Seriously... for 55 grand you'd expect 4-zone climate control as standard! This is just cheap and lame GM! No wonder you'll never reach to Audi, MB, BMW level! BTW, really nice review! You got yourself a sub and a like!
I wish this guy would stop saying “for just just 50 or 60 thousand dollars “… car are way to expensive we are getting smaller engines and a tablet for RPM and Speedometer and infotainment system which have come down in price….so why are we paying so much for cars nowadays.
Why oh why do manufacturers - not just Cadillac - think that sticking a honking big screen on top of the dashboard as though it was an afterthought is a good idea? It looks ridiculous.
Nice ride. You can just about get a very well developed Infiniti Q50 Red Sport for the price of the Caddy.The Red Sport is def bullet proof at this point.
I am so sorry to say that Cadillac is truly dead. Once my most cherished brand, having owned six, REAL Cadillacs. These current compact abominations to the marque are absolutely hideous to lay eyes upon. Really, could they have made this thing any uglier??? The Cadillac brand died a very long time ago with the 1980 models.
Needs run flat tires. Tired of these ridiculous high prices for cookie cutter machines as well. Try more like under $10,000 US Dollars for this right now granted still better but *BARELY* compared to imported junk.
If Lexus BMW Mercedes Audi all can do it So can Cadillac 🙄 I will point out though. Cadillac does have a great naming scheme for their electric vehicle lineup
That coupe look is ugly. Bring back real sedans with trunk lids. Coupe’s are terrible for rear headroom. And 38” rear legroom is criminal. 40” is minimal for a Cadillac. Hard pass.
Another knock off Lexus. Cadillac needs to return to the elegance, style, and body structure that made it stand out among other sedans. I'd rather continue purchasing Mercedes.
@@t.7527 Agreed. Lexus doesn't make a four door sedan that competes with the CT5. The IS500 comes closest to making me want a Lexus but I still can't find it myself to love it. The ES is a nicer Camry. The CT5 is a beautiful car but there are things about it that I don't love - and I own one.
No. The CT4 and the CT5 are on the superb RWD-biased Alpha 2 chassis - a chassis that isn't shared with any other vehicle. The CT5 has a longitudinally mounted engine and transmissions whereas the Malibu has a FWD, transversely mounted engine and transaxle. Entirely different cars. Other than overall length and having four doors, the CT5 and the Malibu have little in common.
Not even close. The CT5-V looks better, drives better, is faster, offers way more space, has better technology, better luxury/convenience, and better build materials are in the Cadillac. Where is the TLX better?
@@G-Rated Compared with this tested car, the Acura TLX Type S comes close to the CT5 PL with 3.0TT. I'd say that adding SuperCruise to the Caddy puts it ahead. I certainly wouldn't pay a premium for the Acura. So while the Premium Luxury CT5 3.0TT and the TLX-S might be in the running with one another, a few dollars more puts you in a far-better CT5-V (non-Blackwing) that is superb and miles better than the Acura. MotorTrend did a comparo between the TLX Type S, the CT5-V and the Genesis G70. The Cadillac finished first and the Acura third. That isn't surprising given that the Acura was the only one of the three with a FWD-biased (and front heavy) platform. While the Acura is good, it just isn't anywhere near as good as the Caddy.
Black Cadillac sedans look absolutely stunning!
