Is the 2021 Cadillac CT5-V a BETTER sport sedan than a BMW M340i?

The NEW CT5-V has a bit of different performance twist from Cadillac. Normally this would be the top trim but it actually replaces the V Sport from the previous generation. On the outside you will find some V-series touches from the grill, wheels, brakes and rear bumper. On the inside you will be greeted to a full leather interior, sport steering wheel and 10in infotainment system. Under the hood is a 3.0L twin-turbo V6 that pumps out 360HP & is mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission. Is the 2021 Cadillac CT5-V a BETTER sport sedan than a BMW M340i?

[@GoofieNewfie]

This and the Type S are on my short list. I know you can't comment on the Type S yet, but you can comment on the normal TLX on things like, material quality, the tech, seats etc. Here in Canada this with incentives is on par with the Type S, almost identical. But with this you get HUD, digital cluster, much better infotainment in my opinion, high quality 360 cam where the Type S isn't even getting a 360 cam, digital rear view mirror, lighted door sills, lighted door handles, automatic trunk with puddle light, double sun roof, built in dash cam, massage seats....etc. It's a very good looking car and honestly as someone that has never owned American, it really has my attention. Sadly I can't go see either car right now so I'm relying on reviews. Both dealers are 800 kms away. But I have a major spinal issue and seat comfort is #1 then my car guy needs are #2. When you do your Type S review, please compare competition like the CT5-V, even if it's in the comments.

[@normt430]

Just drive a CT4 or CT5 Alpha ll chassis. If you can't get a hold of a 2013+ ATS with orginal Alpha chassis. It is worth your time!

[@eg619rip]

Oh man. I’m between these 2 amazing cars as well. I do agree with all the extra features makes it a more bang for the buck and got to test drive the CT5-V series and it felt super agile and not a crazy stiff suspension. But on the other hand, the Type S is cheaper and I worry about the reliability and resell value of the CT5 V series. Planning to go test drive the Type S soon and see how they compare. Did you end up making your decision?

How sweet it is! We recently reviewed the 2021 Acura TLX Type S, a direct competitor of the CT5-V, and it doesn't seem to deliver the same level of soul-stirring enjoyment that the CT5-V does. That's partly because the Cadillac has 51 additional lb-ft of torque versus the Type S, but also because the Acura also feels heavier and less enthusiastic about in its movements... Motor Trend.
