The Cadillac CT4 and CT5 are two of the most impressive American luxury sport sedans on the market. Both offer scintillating style, lively performance, premium interiors, and sophisticated tech features. So how do you decide between the compact CT4 and the midsize CT5? Here's a detailed comparison to help drivers in West Texas choose the Cadillac sedan that best fits their needs.
CT4 vs. CT5: Size and Space
The main difference between the Cadillac CT4 and CT5 is size. The CT4 is a compact luxury sedan with tidy exterior dimensions that make it easy to maneuver and park on the streets of downtown Lubbock. The CT5 is a midsize sedan with a larger footprint and more expansive interior space.
Inside, the CT4 provides comfortable seating for up to five passengers. The trunk offers a generous 10.7 cubic feet of cargo room, plenty of space for luggage, shopping bags, or golf clubs. Drivers in Plainview looking for even more room will appreciate the CT5's cavernous cabin with stretch-out legroom, especially in the rear seats. The CT5 also features a massive, 11.9 cubic-foot trunk to store your suitcases and picnic supplies.
Performance
Both the Cadillac CT4 and CT5 deliver pulse-quickening performance. The CT4 comes standard with a peppy 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with 237 horsepower. An available 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder produces a stout 310 horsepower. For maximum muscle, the high-performance CT4-V Blackwing has a 3.6-liter twin-turbocharged V6 that churns out 472 horsepower.
The larger CT5 ups the ante with a standard 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine rated at 237 horsepower and an available 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 with 335 hp. The ultra-high-performance CT5-V Blackwing unleashes a monstrous 6.2-liter supercharged V8 with 668 horsepower for blistering acceleration. Drivers in Post can outfit either model with all-wheel drive for enhanced traction and handling.
Interior and Technology
When it comes to interior refinement and futuristic tech, the CT4 and CT5 are in a league of their own. Both feature elegant cabins trimmed with premium leather, genuine wood, and carbon fiber accents. Heated and ventilated front seats, along with dual-zone automatic climate control, keep you supremely comfortable, regardless of the weather in Littlefield.
The CT4 and CT5 come loaded with Cadillac's most advanced infotainment system. The Cadillac User Experience includes intuitive voice commands, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto compatibility, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and natural language understanding. The CT4 comes with an 8-inch center touchscreen, while the CT5 has a 33.0-inch curved touchscreen. It also offers an available head-up display and 16-speaker AKG premium audio system.
Smart Safety Technology
Both the CT4 and CT5 offer a full roster of innovative safety features to protect them and their families. Every model comes standard with automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, front pedestrian braking, and a safety alert seat. Lane-keep assist with lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, and rear cross traffic alert provide added certainty on highways around Levelland.
Which Cadillac Sedan Is Right for You?
