What the Critics Say

“For drivers who would actually like to work less, the CT4 is also one of the most affordable new cars to offer General Motors’ Super Cruise hands-free/feet-free driving system that works on thousands of miles of designated highways. We’ve used it many times in many vehicles and think it’s excellent.” — Kelley Blue Book

“Lively handling and performance make the Caddy a good pick for drivers who like their cars a little playful and loose, while comfortable seats, intuitive infotainment, and ample standard safety features also make it a sensible choice. The CT4, priced more like a subcompact sedan than its larger compact competitors, also is an absolute bargain.” — TrueCar

What’s New for 2025

Changes to the Cadillac CT4 are quite minor in nature for the 2025 model year. Shoppers can now choose from three new exterior paint options including Drift Metallic, Typhoon Metallic, and Deep Space Metallic. The CT4 now comes standard with 8-way power-adjustable seats for maximum comfort as well. Lastly, new 18-inch wheel options also debut for the 2025 model year.

Cadillac CT4 Features

Style & Performance

Instantly recognizable as a Cadillac, the CT4 stands out from the crowd of mundane European alternatives. Thanks to its athletic rear-wheel drive proportions, the CT4 features a commanding stance complemented by signature LED lighting at both the front and rear. Standard power comes in the form of a 2.0L Twin-Scroll Turbocharged engine paired with an 8-speed automatic. Looking for an additional dose of adrenaline? Step up to the available 2.7L Dual-Volute Turbocharged engine and 10-speed automatic transmission to experience a 0-60 time of just 4.8 seconds. No matter the road conditions, you’ll enjoy superior traction and stability from the available All-Wheel Drive system offered across the entire CT4 model range. Optional Brembo V Performance front brakes painted in red or blue feature four-piston fixed calipers and patented Duralife rotors to help maximize stopping power for the Cadillac CT4.

Innovative Safety

No matter what type of driver you are, having an extra layer of protection always adds confidence and peace of mind behind the wheel. This is precisely the reason why Cadillac has equipped the CT4 with a cutting-edge suite of driver-assistive safety technologies. Examples of standard features include Automatic Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Alert, Front Pedestrian Braking, Safety Alert Seat, and an LED Reflective Windshield Collision Alert. Available on Premium Luxury models, you can experience the future of driving with exclusive Cadillac Super Cruise, the first true hands-free driver-assistance system with over 200,000 miles of compatible highways in the US and Canada. There’s also an optional Head-Up Display that projects critical drive information directly onto the windshield, eliminating the need for drivers to take their eyes off the road. The Cadillac CT4 continues to set the benchmark for the segment in terms of active safety equipment.
