2019 Cadillac CT6 Platinum: FIRST REVIEW | Caddy's Flagship Gets UPGRADED!

[@darriontunstall3708]

Great video guys!!!! I love the 2019 Cadillac ct-6 ,it's very sexy and sharp, I really love it!!!! I'm learning how to drive it's hard for me because I have cerebral palsy I use a walker and wheelchair, I'm going to a special program that teach people with disabilities how to drive, I know I will get driving with lots of hard work! I'm gonna lease my cars when I get my first car because I love cars, and I can always change cars. Do y'all like hocking loogies? I do lol. It's a guy thing. I can't wait for y'all next video.

[@CarConfections]

Thank you so much Darrion! And keep on doing what you're doing my friend! You'll be out driving in no time 🚘🚗! And lol, about the loogies -- we get sick with allergies frequently, so yeah it can be very rewarding to get one out. Never thought I'd have someone ask about that 😂 Let us know when you get your first car man!!

[@darriontunstall3708]

@@CarConfections okay i will let y'all know when I get my first car, It will be a while before I get to learn how to drive first lol!! I love hocking loogies, I have allergies too. It's good to get it out. I can't wait for y'all next video. Can I have y'all number if y'all don't mind? Just asking.

All Ford needs to do is throw the Conti onto their new RWD platform, suicide doors, and it's pretty much golden! I hope Cadillac's CT5 and 4 are just a good if not better than their predecessors. And fingers crossed for a CT8.

The new exterior styling looks absolutely stunning! I first saw this refreshed CT6 at the Miami International Auto Show a couple of days ago, and my eyes fell in love. Cadillac has definitely been on a roll lately, especially in terms of their recent styling choices! From one car reviewer to another, keep up the great work!

I'm Cadillac's BIGGEST fan. Have been all my 35 years of living. Other than food (I'm a chef), there is nothing more I'm obsessed with. With that said, I,am always hard on Caddy for not being the "standard of the world" they should be. Why is a genesis startup not a cheap chime but this is?

[@davis6123]

Beautiful car. Glad to see that Cadillac is really getting competitive.

[@johnhenry267]

All Cadillac needs to do for this car is add a couple more interior color choices.

[@Легушька-г1б]

True. Those black interiors are so tremendously boring to look at. Caddy should learn from Lincoln today

[@aggressivedemocrat3649]

@@Легушька-г1б They've more than black interiors but it's all on how the dealership orders the car.

[@johnnorris3972]

Agreed! Black and beige get so boring, how about a little variety? Especially on luxury cars. Lincoln got the idea with their black label models.

[@jkandybar]

I agree. Also, when you build the car on the Cadillac website, and select the beige interior with the Platinum package, the dash is also beige. The dash should always be black to avoid glare on the windshield. It's annoying and dangerous. Never understood why car makers still do this.

[@chronos4573]

The rear tailight assemblies look much more integrated and stylish, one of my biggest put offs on the current CT6. I'm glad I held-off getting one of these , because this this refresh does it for me. From the front end to rear tailight lenses, all the lines of the car seemed to have been made more crisp and angular. A very well executed evolutionary update. I'll be in the market for a mid-level trim, even if its a 4 cylinder, the chassis is light enough for it.

[@superwangwei3630]

First review on youtube? this channel keeps getting better! Good job!

[@CarConfections]

Thanks so much! We were really excited to spend some time with this one!

[@jeremythegreat1563]

[@Stressless2023]

Love the design changes front and back. That dinging sound when you push the start button sounds so generic & down-market though, almost the same tone as a Chevy Cobalt. GM should have incorporated some kind of Cadillac-specific chime.

[@brianb.1883]

Nice Girl, I totally agree. I was really liking the interior updates, getting that warm, fuzzy proud feeling, and then... DING DING DING!!! *cringe cringe cringe* It was friggin’ jarring. lol

[@rueben44]

Wow I didn't expect the update to look that good on a real world model. That is sick! Oh on a side note that is not a silver painted handle that is metal. I also noted that now they rap part of the lower door panel that once wasn't.

[@jamesgreg5542]

"Rap"??

[@onshaicooper8315]

Radical, it’s a “pre-production” model, they send them out to give dealerships something to show serious customers. I’m not certain if they get returned when the production cars start arriving, or they keep them for special editions.

[@BKMBROOKS]

[@waverunner7063]

Oh trust me, go on ahead with that 750i M Sport. You won't regret it. Just get the autobahn package.

[@brianb.1883]

Brooks, what are the roads that you travel every day like? Smooth, well maintained, or potholed and rough? If you’re blessed with smooth roads, get the BMW and enjoy the hell out of it. If you’v got the same kind of roads we have here in Massachusetts, where potholes have been known to swallow whole cars, then get the Cadillac. If you get snow, opt for the all wheel drive versions both manufacturers offer. BMWs are very precisely engineered cars, with extremely low tolerances. On rough roads, things will get shaken just slightly out of place, which then knocks other things out of place and leads to system failures. When BMWs are running well, they’re an absolute pleasure to drive, and great fun. When things are off, not so much. I drove a tow truck for three weeks (obviously not the career for me), and the vast majority of cars I winched on board were Beemers. GM understands American roads, and Cadillacs have always had that sensation of gliding over a bump, whereas other cars will generally bounce. In Massachusetts we have a lot of curved bridges, and my CTS4s have never given me the feeling of coming out from behind me over an expansion joint. The Lincolns I drove for work always had me ready to counter steer at any given moment. That’s my thoughts, sorry for the epic novel I just wrote. lol

I have been wishing for a long time it seems that luxury cars go back to some definitive styling instead of just looking the same with a different badge. I'm am happy to see that Cadillac is now taking that stance next year and am incredibly excited to see it come out. Its sharp, distinctive and smart all in one. Not even getting into the engine, I think this is going to be a smash hit.

What engine is under the hood of the new CT6 platinum?? Is it a V8 or a twin turbo 6??

[@CarConfections]

This one has the Twin Turbo 6. The TT V-8 will probably be reserved for the CT6-V exclusively

[@liberalweirdo7886]

Car Confections I’ve read that the CT6V will be a TT V8 but that there would also be a naturally aspirated V8. That’s why I was wondering how it would work in terms of engines/trim levels. Still can’t seem to find a clear answer anywhere. Not sure why Cadillac is being so hush on the engine choices for this mid life cycle update on the CT6

[@CarConfections]

Interesting...I hadn't heard anything about a naturally aspirated version being available. As far as what I've seen, Cadillac has only officially talked about the V and not any of the other engines for whatever reason

[@mscongeniality8205]

Car Confections My guess is platinum trim will still offer TT V6 like the one you reviewed here but there’s a new n/a V8 engine available for the 2019 models. The “V” will get a more potent version of the Platinum’s V8 engine and I believe it’s a TT V8.

[@liberalweirdo7886]

Our info from Mercedes-Benz USA has the S-class length at 206.5 for the standard version

[@cardude1992]

Thats the Long wheel base version globally i think. So the standard CT6 in size is right between the SWB and LWB S class. Thats proper full size to me! A LWB version of CT6 would be apples to apples comparison with the LWB S class and it would easily be bigger. Too bad they dont make that tho

Love the Caddy CT6, it has the Escala styling that it should have had which it was first introduced(what a disappointment back then) , and as far as full size luxury sedans go, all the features in this car believe it it not was influenced by not the Maybach, Rolls Royce,Bentley or any other ultra luxury saloon , you can thank the 2011 Hyundai Equus as it gave you all these features, especially for the rear seat passengers, for almost half the price of S-Class, 7 Series, A8 and Lexus LS. All those cars were sent back to the drawing board and hence have all of those features now. But yes, I agree, with the updated stying the CT6 does compare with those cars now.
