A Cadillac V-Series model has always been the pinnacle of any performance Cadillac. Unfortunately, for 2020, the company has decided to make their V-series models a bit more approachable and this all-new #CadillacCT5V is supposed to be the company's answer to the Audi S4, BMW M340i, and Mercedes-AMG C43. It pairs a twin-turbo V6 with a new 10-speed transmission with standard rear or available AWD. While the #CT5V does not have the bonkers power or even as much power as the old CTS V-Sport, the #CadillacCT5 is significantly less expensive than the old #Cadillac #CTS and offers far more interior space versus its smaller german rivals.

[@theredline]

Happy Friday guys! Cadillac may have "watered down" the V-Series vehicles for these new generations, but the CT5-V is about $12,000 less expensive than the old CTS V-Sport, is nearly as quick to 60 MPH, and offers far more interior space than it German rivals. We can't wait to drive the real "V" though... bring on the CT5 V Blackwing!

[@kobra6660]

It's still basically a four door corvette I dont why they chose the blackwing name though

[@jordanmenczer5662]

CT5-V vs Genesis G70 3.3t?

[@tintocherian7715]

Yea I think keeping the V nomenclature but toning down the vehicle, in both power and price to make it more accessible as a daily driver, did cause some confusion at first....but I like the direction they chose to go as it makes more sense for the average buyer, who isnt looking for 420hp and a starting price of $60k which the old CTS V Sport had...I just hope that, with the annual iterations, they do some neccessary interior upgrades to improve the premium feel and make it a true luxury competitor....however, as you acknowledged in your review, they definitely nailed the driving dynamics

I love my CT5-V. It’s like two cars in one. Put it in tour mode, and it rides better than my Escalade. Drop it in V mode or track and it becomes another car. Handles like it’s on rails and is very quick. My V is fully loaded for around 61. I have no need for a 200 mph car and the black wing is only a second faster 0-60. Equipped like mine your over 110. Unless you’re a track guy, the top speed on this V is 155. I’ll never take it up there. So for most, this is all you need.

It looks like the V series has been "demoted" to mid-tier for people who want more but not too much. Blackwing is the new, real V.

I agree. However, they've been attempting to shed the grampa Caddy imagine since they legitimately committed to the 2nd gen CTS. Problem is, GM won't commit any legit advertising budget to their sedans. The ATS and 3rd gen CTS were amazing driver's cars, and I'm happy they still used the alpha platform with this. Caddy went back to the tweener, e.g. 2008-2012 CTS, and it's only legitimate comp in price, specs and size is the all new TLX. Perhaps the Q50, if Nissan would ever actually provide a redesign on it's Infiniti model.

[@Sevenfeet0]

I've never understood why everyone (including this review!) is missing the point. These new V's are the replacement for the V-Sport models (previously the CTS and XTS). I used to own the CTS V-Sport and it was a blast. When Cadillac decided to retire the V-Sport branding, they just expanded the V-brand. There will be replacements for the old Vs soon enough. Mercedes did something similar a while back by doing away with the AMG-Sport branding and just used "AMG" among all models, just using the 63/53 and 43 badging to determine what was a "true" AMG and what was a replacement for the AMG-Sport.

[@corystansbury]

Why is it so vital and so important for the exhaust sound to be really, really loud?

[@GoofieNewfie]

Every reviewer is knocking this for not having 650HP. The reality is what GM has done was a good move. On their old path they wouldn't last another 5 years. Now you can attract younger buyers and hopefully keep them with a lower price point, granted the Ct5 isn't actually cheap once you add all the options. It needs to be rebated to get on the road, and get popular.

[@rod22lt]

Steve I agree however, Cadillac shot themselves in the foot again w names. They should of just kept V-sport for this model and V for high powered version

[@jfish9014]

I believe the rub is that Cadillac is diluting the V "heritage" probably in effort to cash in on it's performance intentions, even though it's not as good as it once was, average buyer just see's the V badge. Same issue with BMW diluting M, and Mercedes doing the same with AMG - seems like a marketing ploy.

@5:30 In actuality for a turbo V6 it has way more bark than I would have expected. Turbos normally take away from exhaust sounds. Also while it is the V remember the majority of Cadillac buyers don't want it to sound Camaro loud. So that said I think GM did pretty good considering and like you said the BlackWing hopefully will fill the void left by the taking the V8 away.

And that's a good thing!

Saw you reviewed the CT4 but not the CT4V, can you link it?

[@Ray_Stark]

So I like the Sport trim for its looks. But I’d prefer the 335hp V6 in the Premium Luxury over the 4Cyl. Which would you choose?

Cadillac always at the top of the list

GM Engineers: “Next, do a triple turbo 850cc three cylinder V. With cylinder deactivation and start/stop included of course. See if we can squeeze a hundred grand out of the MSRP!” The people who came up with V Cadillacs must be crying.

Most GM products, that I've been in if you disengage the traction control. You should be able to rev it out more. Granted everyone that I've tried were fwd based. But GM should keep it with the rwd based models.

I got this question, someone please tell me why the mid size caddies are always compared to the smaller audi, mercs and bmws. They make a smaller caddy for that. Every review I see it’s compared to those smaller cars. That back window doesn’t look as bad in person
