Expert 2022 Cadillac CT5 review

Our expert's take
By Cars.com Editors
Full article

What Is the 2022 Cadillac CT5?

The Cadillac CT5 is a five-seat luxury sports sedan with rear- or all-wheel drive. It comes standard with a 237-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine; an optional twin-turbo 3.0-liter V-6 is rated at 335 hp in the Premium Luxury trim and 360 hp in the V-Series. Both engines work with a 10-speed automatic transmission. For even greater performance, there’s also a new CT5-V Blackwing, which is powered by a 668-hp, supercharged 6.2-liter V-8. 

Competitors include the BMW 3 Series, Genesis G70 and Audi A4. The CT5 has 13.3 cubic feet of trunk space, according to Cars.com’s cargo measurements. You can see how it scored in our Car Seat Check here.

What’s New on the 2022 Cadillac CT5?

Other than the addition of the CT5-V Blackwing at the top of the lineup, there are no significant changes this year. 

What Features in the 2022 Cadillac CT5 Are Most Important?

Standard features include:

  • LED headlights 
  • Remote start 
  • 10-inch touchscreen multimedia system
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity
  • Wi-Fi hot spot (data subscription required after trial)
  • Wireless device charging
  • Forward collision warning
  • Automatic emergency braking
  • Blind spot warning with rear cross-traffic alert
  • Lane keep assist

Available features include:

  • Panoramic moonroof
  • Leather-trimmed seats
  • Heated and ventilated front seats
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Digital instrument panel
  • Bose premium stereo
  • Navigation
  • Head-up display
  • 360-degree camera system
  • Super Cruise hands-free driver-assist system

Should I Buy the 2022 Cadillac CT5?

The Cadillac CT5 offers a driving experience that’s relaxed and refined, with sportier trim levels delivering a higher degree of performance. While the cabin is an improvement over previous Cadillac sedans, there are some areas that still look low-grade, and the trunk is on the small side. The availability of all-wheel drive is a plus, however, as is the car’s large backseat.

    The CT5 is NOT A LUXURY AUTOMOBILE

    I am very underwhelmed with the Cadillac CT5. As far as I am concerned, Cadillac no longer makes a luxury sedan. Perhaps I am jaded because the CT6, a real luxury automobile, was discontinued. The "premium luxury" package on the CT5 is totally different than the CT6. A simple example is the the mirrors do not electronically fold in nor is there a basic button to close the vehicle's trunk. Be aware that there are two different engines available. I made big mistake not getting the larger engine. The rear seating area is small and the legroom is extremely limited, especially when the front seats are comfortably positioned. I was embarrassed the other day when I picked up clients to take them to lunch and they had to squeeze in to the back seats of the vehicle. I am extremely disappointed in Cadillac for getting out of the luxury car business.

    2022 CT5-V Series Gets You There In Style:

    I traded my 3 year old 2019 Blazer to get a new CT5-V Series. The car is nicely equipped & lovely to look at inside & out. The leather black & white interior has a hi-end look & feel, plus heated & ventilated seats. This car is about the same size as the current model Honda Accord. The 360hp V6 feels willing, able & smooth. The exhaust has a sporty note. 10 speed auto shifts very smoothly. This is the best driving Cadillac I've been in & just to reiterate, has a sporty feel. It's not the "cushy" Brougham feeling Caddy's were known for in the 1980's. It looks very smart, has enough advanced technology to boggle your mind & overall, gets you there in style! On the downside, I ordered this car in March & took the process 7 months before car arrived at my Dealership.

    Stylish and Solid so Far

    I'm just 3 weeks into owning and driving this new car, having accepted that my 300,000 mile 22 year old Olds couldn't be rejuvenated. The CT5 is a fine looking intermediate sized sedan. The dealership support seems solid. I think I have mastered the most important 2/3 of what all the switches and controls do. We have the twin-turbo engine and, as advertised, it accelerates well. The jury is out on the run-flat tires and nonexistent equipment to change a tire. The car could use more headroom in the rear seats. But there is lots to like as well. The heads-up display is great and I've configured the dashboard to monitor things I want like tire pressure and coolant temperature (among many other possible things). It connects well with my mobile phone and charges while doing this. The basic radio pulls in all sorts of stations. It feels well constructed and I was delighted to learn almost all of the car was made in the US, Canada, or Mexico. It is a pleasure to drive and it induced me to pick up a copy of Aretha Franklin's Freeway of Love singing about her Pink Cadillac, even if mine is white.
