Cadillac CT5 [Official] Cadillac CT5

[hoffmeister_fan]

Although much of the switchgear is shared with other Caddies (BTW, that's not a slight as that's common industry practice), I like how it's organized. I am sure I am in the minority, but I don't mind the analog gauges as long as that center display between both gauges is properly configurable. Overall, turned out better than I was expecting.

Interior looks like Cadillac tried to copy Genesis and Genesis copied BMW...

I'm amazed at the interior to be honest. It looks better than I ever would have imagined for a GM product.

Yeah, I'm pleasantly surprised. Did not expect to be honest. Pretty sure the digital dash will be available later with the V-sport or Platinum. There is a one minus thought: Looks like tt does not have an ambient lighting tech.
Overall, great car for the D-segment.
Can't wait for the Escalade. People say good stuff about it.
Is there any chance we will see their brand new V8 TT for the CT5-V?

Oh yes they will definitely do a V8 CT5 V and a 400hp turbo V6 V Sport model too.

As you say John, as you say Galt.

The more I look at it, the more I like it.
So if this is positioned as a D-segment car, the the CT4 will go to C-segment.

You really don't need to be the clevest dude around to put 2 and 2 together.

There can't be more than a handful people in the world interested in this turd.

 

[Abbat]

Actually I'm blown away from GM's last products.

Take a look at the Buick's minivan for China. I did not know they make minivans. I've found it now on Cars coops.

Now the rumors about the upcoming Escalade and future Cadillac models sound believable.

 

[hoffmeister_fan]

I genuinely like both interiors (the Caddy and Buick van).

Calling this vehicle is totally unwarranted from what I can see. Looking forward to the first drives...

Exterior wise, there is really very little to fault per se. Proportions could have been lifted from the Genesis, Infiniti or Volvo playbooks. Not a bad thing at all. It's precisely penned and generally very clean. albeit quite generic. More a "value for the money" than a "must have" entry, I suspect.

It will be interesting to see how the CT5 will be received by the target audience in North America and China.

 

[Abbat]

That is striking! Amazing how much better real world pics are than the Cadillac promotional ones, or even shots taken at the NY Auto Show.

Both The Cadillac CT5-V And CT4-V Will Debut This Month

 

[martinbo]

Wow, it's even uglier in real-life than I expected.

 

[Merc1]

Yeah that C-pillar treatment is terrible.

That snout has also got some weird shit going on when viewed in profile.

 

[Giannis]

Just another missed opportunity!

 

[Deleted member 1071]

I don't find it...ugly...but...

 

[hoffmeister_fan]

What are you guys talking? It looks great! It's even got a ducktail spoiler! I mean it's no Turbo or GT3 from the looks of it....

Oh wait, you guys are talking about the Caddy? I guess, carry on then....


I joke, I joke. In all seriousness, the CT5 not so bad...that until you get to the C-pillar. Everything from the C-pillar to the rear looks heavy and contrived. I am still surprised that I still like the interior.
