2018 Cadillac CTS-V review: Our expert's take

What it is: The CTS is Cadillac's mid-size luxury sedan and is offered with rear- or all-wheel drive. Three engines are offered: a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, a 3.6-liter V-6 and, on the V-Sport model, a twin-turbo 3.6-liter V-6. The CTS competes with luxury sedans like the BMW 5 Series, Lexus GS and Audi A6. Cadillac also sells a high-performance CTS-V sports sedan.

An automatic heated steering wheel is now standard and there are two additional USB ports located on the back of the center console. The myCadillac app for iOS devices now syncs with the Apple Watch.

CTS-V 

The Cadillac CTS-V is designed to go head-to-head with high-powered German sport sedans. It builds on the already lightweight, sophisticated platform of the CTS luxury sedan and is powered by a 640-horsepower, supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 engine.

My Favorite Car

May 20, 2019

By Mike A. from Memphis, TN

Owns this car

Outside the fact I am 6`1 and 370 lbs, this is a wonderful automobile. I went with the Recaro seats and they are not the best for a big guy, but I make it work. LOL! The vehicle performs great (I have added K&N, Stainlessworks Exhuast, NGK plugs, MSD wires, an 160 thermostat) with plenty of power. I will have it dyno'd next week so I will have a tune to the changes. The only real issue is the brake dust from the pads, so ceramic pads will be the next thing once these go out. I clean them twice a week so that the ride looks wonderful coming out the garage on Sunday drives
