What's New for 2025
For 2025, the Cadillac CT4 sees a few subtle but notable updates to keep things fresh. Three new paint colors join the palette: Deep Space Metallic, a sophisticated dark grey; Typhoon Metallic, a bold green hue; and the CT4-V-exclusive Drift Metallic, a sleek light blue shade. Enhancing comfort and style, the CT4-V now includes standard eight-way power-adjustable front seats, ensuring drivers and passengers alike can find their perfect position. Additionally, a new 18-inch wheel design adds a modern touch to the CT4-V’s already sharp aesthetic.
These minor updates enhance the CT4’s appeal without straying from its core strengths of performance, style, and American luxury.
Model Details
Engine, Performance, and Fuel Economy
Buyers of the 2025 Cadillac CT4 have the option of two turbocharged four-cylinder engines tailored to different performance needs. The base 2.0-liter engine, producing 237 horsepower, powers the Luxury trim as well as the mid-range Premium Luxury and Sport models. For those seeking more vigor, a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder is available, delivering 310 horsepower in the Premium Luxury trim and 325 horsepower in the performance-oriented CT4-V. These engines are paired with smooth-shifting transmissions: an eight-speed automatic for the 2.0-liter and a 10-speed automatic for the 2.7-liter.
The CT4’s rear-wheel-drive platform is a standout feature in the entry-level luxury segment, providing a more dynamic driving experience compared to front-drive rivals like the Audi A3 and BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe. For added traction in inclement weather, all-wheel drive is available across the lineup.
Driving enthusiasts will appreciate the CT4-V's athletic nature, which feels quick, agile, and eager to engage. While the 10-speed gearbox could use a touch more refinement, the overall driving experience remains rewarding. Even in its sportiest configuration, the CT4 impresses with a suspension that balances sharp handling with comfort, absorbing road imperfections without disrupting passenger comfort. It’s a blend of performance and everyday usability that makes the CT4 a compelling choice.
Fuel Efficiency
Both of the Cadillac CT4’s turbocharged four-cylinder engines strike a respectable balance between performance and fuel efficiency. Rear-wheel-drive models equipped with the 2.0-liter engine are EPA-rated at 22 mpg in the city, 32 mpg on the highway, and 26 mpg combined. In our real-world highway fuel economy test at 75 mph, a 2023 2.0-liter CT4 exceeded expectations, delivering an impressive 33 mpg.
The larger and more powerful 2.7-liter engine has slightly lower ratings. Models with all-wheel drive achieve 21 mpg city, 29 mpg highway, and 24 mpg combined. The sporty CT4-V trails slightly, with estimates of 20 mpg city, 29 mpg highway, and 23 mpg combined, but in our highway testing of a 2020 model, it surprised us with a stellar 35 mpg.

Interior, Comfort, and Storage
Inside, the Cadillac CT4 takes a more user-friendly approach compared to its predecessor, the ATS, with intuitive buttons and switchgear replacing the largely touch-sensitive controls. While these updates improve usability, some touch points betray a cost-conscious design, feeling less premium than expected for a luxury sedan. Unfortunately, the cabin materials and textures haven't seen a significant quality upgrade either, leaving room for improvement in terms of perceived luxury.
Passenger space is another area where the CT4 falls short. The rear seats feel tight, especially for taller passengers, and the trunk offers just 10.7 cubic feet of cargo room, making it one of the smaller options in the segment. However, higher trims bring a host of standard and optional luxury and technology features that enhance comfort and convenience, offsetting some of these drawbacks. Add to that the CT4's engaging handling and composed ride, and it manages to deliver a driving experience that overshadows its shortcomings.
Technology and Infotainment
All Cadillac CT4 models feature an 8.0-inch infotainment touchscreen equipped with Cadillac's latest CUE software, ensuring a modern and responsive user experience. Standard connectivity includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, making it easy to sync your smartphone for navigation, calls, and media. An onboard Wi-Fi hotspot is also included, keeping passengers connected on the go.
For those seeking enhanced audio and navigation capabilities, Cadillac offers an optional package that includes a 14-speaker Bose premium stereo system, providing an immersive listening experience. This upgrade replaces the standard eight-speaker system, delivering richer and more detailed sound. With navigation available across all trims, the CT4 ensures drivers have access to cutting-edge tech, whether commuting or exploring new destinations.
Safety Features
Cadillac equips the CT4 with an impressive suite of standard driver-assistance features, ensuring peace of mind for drivers and passengers alike. However, its most advanced feature, the Super Cruise semi-autonomous driving system, is reserved as an option exclusively for the Premium Luxury and Sport trims. Super Cruise combines adaptive cruise control and lane-centering technology, allowing for hands-free driving on compatible highways—a standout feature in this segment.

Key safety features include:
- Standard automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection for added urban safety.
- Standard lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist to maintain proper lane positioning.
- Available adaptive cruise control with a semi-autonomous driving mode for smoother, more advanced highway driving.
These technologies highlight Cadillac commitment to blending innovation and safety, keeping drivers confident on every journey.
