The Cadillac CT5 is a mid -range sedan presented in spring 2019 by the Cadillac car brand from the General Motors group. The vehicle is the successor to the Cadillac CTS . It is only offered outside of Europe.

Model history

For the first time on March 18, 2019, a preview of the Cadillac CT5 was given with photos on the Internet. In the subsequent marketing campaign (“Sensory Symphony”) via social media (e.g. on Youtube ), up to the presentation of the vehicle, ASMR elements (abbreviation for: Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response ) were used. The first formal public presentation took place at the New York International Auto Show (NYIAS) of the same year. The vehicle should be available from autumn 2019 as a model year 2020 vehicle. It is intended to replace the Cadillac ATS and CTS models.

At the end of May 2019, the CT5-V, a sportier, more powerful version of the sedan, was presented in Detroit and is to be sold from the beginning of 2020.

For the Chinese market, it was presented at the Chengdu Motor Show in September 2019 and has been available there since the fourth quarter of 2019. In the same month it was nominated as a semi-finalist for the North American Car of the Year 2020.

design

The design of the vehicle is given a resemblance to that of the Cadillac Escala and the rear section of the four-door sedan a resemblance to a hatchback.

The headlights are arched, with the legs extending towards the grille and the outer edge of the hood. They have integrated daytime running lights that have continued right into the bumper. The grille is as wide as the space between the headlights. The taillights are mainly aligned vertically, at the top they continue on the one hand the shoulder line of the sideline and on the other hand with a fork in the bar above the license plate recess. The lettering of the vehicle designation is also at the same vehicle height.

The lettering with the nomenclature introduced in 2019 for the rounded maximum torque and the charging of the engine is on the right side of the trunk lid .

A dark-colored triangle was positioned behind the doors to the rear seats at the transition to the tailgate. The double- sided exhaust trims are trapezoidal and fitted into the bumpers. The exterior door handles of the vehicle are door handles. On the CT5-V, the exhaust trims are double-flow and double-sided (a total of four end pieces).

For China, the vehicle is produced by the SAIC General Motors joint venture at the Cadillac plant in Jinqiao , Pudong district , Shanghai .
