About the Cadillac CT5
Introduced for the 2020 model year, the Cadillac CT5 replaced the CTS as the brand's primary mid-size luxury offering. Built on the Alpha 2 platform shared with the Chevrolet Camaro, it features a distinctive fastback silhouette that departs from the traditional three-box sedan shape. The 2.0T variant serves as the entry point, utilizing the LSY engine with Tripower technology for improved efficiency. While it offers a composed ride and sharp handling, it was positioned to undercut German rivals on price while providing advanced tech like the Super Cruise hands-free driving system.
