The CTS to the CT5 was a downgrade but this refresh on the CT5 is definitely an improvement
This is the best looking front end on a sedan that I’ve seen.
Cadillac has always had a special place in my heart. My family has owned them for years. I am also glad that that they finally incorporated the 33-inch screen from the Escalade! I also hope that they come out with a “V” version so we get that updated interior in a more potent package.

This is not the screen from the Escalade. That display is 38-inches across and OLED, like the Escalade’s taillights and DRLs. The Escalade is the only Cadillac that has this 38-inch OLED display with over 8,000 pixels they’ve managed to fit within the 3 separate screens. This 33-inch display is from the _Lyriq._ It isn’t OLED but it boasts a 9K resolution with over 9,000 pixels squeezed into it’s single screen. It certainly rivals the clarity of the OLED display you’ll find in the Escalade but it’s not the same thing at all.

Yea they did it in a modern way they’re taking the Porsche route with the designs slight meaningful touches nothing outrageous to destroy a perfect design just touches to modernize it with the times You never destroy a perfect design you only revise it and if you want a new design you make a completely new design altogether leaving the old generation alone I wish all brands took this route Mercedes, Porsche and Cadillac all do it but everyone else just destroys their beautiful designs instead of elevating it

I love Cadillacs design language and the fact that they aren’t succumbing to the current design trends that’ll be outdated in at least 5 years. Really just a timeless brand
I really hope Cadillac doesn't discontinue this model. Its Blackwing variant got in the Car&Driver's top 10 cars of the year. I hope they see how good this car is and keep it alive.
Maybe there is hope for the industry. Don't kill the sedans.
Sedans need more deck lid. Can’t stand how everything looks like a A7
Wow! This looks awesome! 👍🏼 What a cool design👌🏻👌🏻
Oh wow! I love the CT5 and especially the CT5-V Blackwing, but this looks fantastic! I hope they continue the CT5-V Blackwing with the supercharged V8 and manual. It would then be the only V8 competitor to the upcoming V8 Hybrid M5 since the E63 is going straight-6 hybrid and Audi is going electric. It will be a sledgehammer in among a bunch of scalpels and we will love it just as much - or even more - as the current CT5-V Blackwing. Kinda wish we got Caddies. Had the BLS and that ugly SRX thing in the late 2000s and early 2010s, but that is it.
The M5 was once the best looking mid size sports sedan, but since the garbage the just released, this V takes the cake. To your point, its a stunning sedan.
Wow, what a front end. Great improvement. I'll take one in Deep Space Metallic!
I can't wait to see the Blackwing with the refresh.
I like that they gave this the new wide screen inside. They said a few years ago that all the new Caddys would get it. However, they are refusing to update the interiors on the XT5 and XT6 for some stupid reason. The new XT4 got a face lift and interior upgrades. The other two absolutely needs the same treatment!

Given that GM just revealed the Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia that are all-new, they will probably reveal a much nicer XT6 and XT5 on the same/similar platform with an all-new design very soon. Cadillac/GM unfortunately just doesn't plan on making major changes to the sedans anymore, so they needed to modernize it in the tech department in order to help it soldier on a bit longer.

The XT5 is on an ancient platform now in terms of the luxury segment, I’m surprised they haven’t even given it a major refresh cuz compared to the competition it simply isn’t appealing (besides maybe the price cuts you can get on it). But GM is also working on a new Midsize platform, so cadillac is probably gonna wait for those to put the new screens into.

Very informative video, especially the comparison with the current 2020 model. Thank you
Just bought my 2022 a year ago, but now feeling I need this refreshed look lol
Looks like an updated version of the 2018 model and that's not a bad thing.
i love how the front end almost reminds me of their lemans hypercar
350T is the base model- 2.0T
Also add a CT4 update!
Beautiful car, I wish I was rich so I could get one. :D
They should let you customize the gauges more though. An 85 corvette gauge cluster would be awesome
You compared the new sport trim to the old premium. The new sport trim is what the V (nonBW) will look like most likely. That might have been a better comparison
Gorgeous Doesn’t Do It Justice.❤
Love the new face, hate the giant screen. I wish we would get away from expanding screens and get back to quality materials and artful design. Sad... but I think big screens are here to stay. Glad they are putting effort into this car still though... it's an excellent sedan.

i really loved how they reversed back to the Old CTS front lights design and CT6 , This is insane i will buy it hopefully next 2025 , Iam happy the disgusting models from 2020 to 2024 are going to vanish from their market , Also they must bring back Old CTS V again
How is the reliability with the CT series?
Never have been a fan of the vertical rectangle design language. (Except the original CTS).The Cadillac symbol has gotten better.
I have a 22 ct5 v and I love thay shit , to be honest the new single screen is not doing it for me , the new bumper and green color is awsome though
I’m surprised they didn’t turn it electric

How is Cadillac for reliability iability as a North American car?
I like the changes, but... why didn't they upgrade those cheap looking black plastic switches & buttons throughout the interior? It makes it look like a Chevy Cruze. They should be stainless steel to meet the luxury pricing mark 💰. Fortunately they sell trim covers for these on eBay for the rest of us.

This has F30 3 series and F13 6 series interior that connects upper dashboard of passenger to center console. Looks a little old other than nicely integrated the curved display
Can I just ask.... why do you need a baseball cap on indoors while sitting in front of a computer?
Pretty decent overhaul of the front end but it really didn't need it. From the beginning of when first came to market, the CT5 looks pretty good from the front end but when seen from side or back view, it's a let-down. What needed a redo is everything aft of the B pillar. It's still a downhill ride in the visuals especially with that econo-car looking C pillar and cheap plastic insert thing-a-ma-jig! It's saddening how GM/Cadillac mucked up the Escala design language on the CT5.
I really like this car but can we PLEASE have more than 237hp available in the sport trim????? No idea why the 325hp 2.7L isn't the base motor or at least available and why for the love of god is the V6 not available in sport trim???? Completely boggles my mind. I've driven the 2.0L a few times to try to convince myself that's its adequate because I REALLY like this car and want to buy one but the 2.0L is just so unsatisfying in a car of this type, size and price and its not terribly refined (not that the 2.7L is but at least it has lots of power) I keep holding out hope that 'next year' will be when they make the V6 sport available as I don't care for the Luxury premium trim look so I have walked out of my local Cadillac dealer 3 times now because I just can't justify $60K for a 237hp luxury sport sedan even though as a whole these cars are good value for $.
It's not just YOU . . I hope to order a new car this year, and it definitely won't have "stupid cruise" . . if you're too lazy to steer your own car, you don't belong ON the road.

why you are comparing the new sport trim to the old luxry trim, the old sport front end looks better. Interior is a big upgrade, I have my 2020 CT5-V AWD Platinum in Evergreen, I want the new interior but dislike the new front end exterior🤣

How much you want for it lol
It's a minor update and, in my opinion, not enough. I still really dislike the c-pillar design; it looks cheap with the fake plastic & the kink that is unrelated to the rest of the design. As for it being a "3-box" sedan --- that third box needs to be more profound. It's too short & too rounded. The taillights are still droopy without a strong sense of definition; having quad exhausts doesn't resolve that. I'd rather have better taillights. I think that the CT5 suffers from having no "presence". I kind of like the new interior screen, but I agree with you that the old version is fine as is --- maybe even better. I really WANT to like a Cadillac sedan design, but this one pales compared to the concept cars they showed in the past (but never produced). It really needs more presence; it kind of looks like a Honda Accord.

Looks good, unfortunately the only thing that I actually wanted to see changed Cadillac didn't touch. That would be the cheap plastic fake window at the C Piller. Cadillac tried to copy Honda but Honda actually puts a window in this spot.
They're starting to lose the boxy look that keeps Cadillac looking awesome and different from every other car. I like the older one better.
i like the lines of this american sedan. too classy and fluid shapes. BUT and it s nearly a DESIGN OBLIGATION now.....many models even chinease ones adoptes the SAME PEUGEOT LANGUAGE IN THE FRONT DESIGN. YES with some modifications maby but it sceams peugeot when the car is far. maby 🤔
When AI gets into cars watch out.
They still have that dorky Prius style shifter.
IMO, the front end on the pre-facelift model looked much better. This one looked saggy and overly angry
These are good looking, but the build quality is really poor
So they changed the front and nothing else

Interior too
CTS was better design
No one wants Sedans, but I see FORTEs and ELANTRAs everywhere...
TL;DR: Interior looks better, interior looks worse because screen everywhere trend.
In my honest opinion, there are too many grills and vents in the front. It doesn't suit the side and back profile at all, which barely have any vents, showcasing smooth body lines. The overall proportion looks okay, not exciting nor new and that front just isn't it for me.

Stunner is not the word i'd use to describe the CT5. Looks like a Lexus from the side view and the headlights are ugly. Maybe GM is trying to tempt potential customers away from Lexus.
