2025 Cadillac CT5 Sedan Trims Comparison

A turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine is standard (237 horsepower, 258 lb-ft) in the Premium Luxury and Sport. With the Premium Luxury trim, you can upgrade to a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 (335 horsepower, 405 lb-ft), which is standard in the CT5-V where it supplies a little more power (360 hp, 405 lb-ft). Both engines employ a 10-speed automatic transmission to turn the rear wheels, and all-wheel drive is available.

A supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine (668 hp, 659 lb-ft) lives under the CT5-V Blackwing's hood. That version of the car comes with a six-speed manual gearbox or a 10-speed automatic transmission, each driving the Blackwing's rear wheels.

Premium Luxury
The most affordable version of the CT5 is nicely equipped with:

• Automatic high-beam headlights
• Rain-sensing windshield wipers
• Dual-pane sunroof
• Leather upholstery
• Heated and ventilated front seats
• Heated, power-adjustable steering wheel
• 33-inch driver display and Google built-in touchscreen infotainment system
• Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• OnStar connected services with 5G Wi-Fi access
• 15-speaker premium sound system

The CT5 Premium Luxury also includes these safety features:

• Intersection collision mitigation (warns you of an impending collision with front-crossing traffic and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
• Blind-spot intervention (automatically steers the car back into its lane if you try to change lanes while a car is in the vehicle's blind spot)

• Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the CT5 and its surroundings in tight parking situations)
• Super Cruise (uses the vehicle's advanced driver aids to further provide hands-free driving capability on select highways)

Sport
Choose the CT5 Sport for:

• Larger standard wheels with run-flat tires
• Blacked-out exterior trim

CT5-V
Besides a standard twin-turbo V6, this version of the CT5 otherwise builds on the Sport trim (though it removes the dual-pane sunroof) with:

• Blind-spot intervention (automatically steers the car back into its lane if you try to change lanes while a car is in the vehicle's blind spot)
