NAIAS 2023: Cadillac Unveils The Updated CT5

Good news! The 2023 North American International Detroit Auto Show (NAIAS) is underway. And on this occasion, Cadillac introduced the updated CT5 sedan. As is the norm for most makeover projects, the car’s styling has been revised, while the standard features list has been improved.

The 2025 Cadillac CT5 boasts a tweaked front fascia courtesy of a redesigned bumper, a more prominent grille, new headlamps and chrome accents. The Sport trim ropes in a black mesh grille with black surrounds. Another notable change comes from the list of new features available across the lineup. It includes 5G Wi-Fi hotspot capability, Blind Zone Steering Assist, Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking, Available Traffic Sign Recognition and Intelligent Speed Assist, and Driver Attention Assist.

Besides the thicker blanket of assistance systems, the 2025 Cadillac CT5 also offers a 33-inch LED touchscreen display. It has built-in Google, which ropes in various popular applications such as Google Assistant, Google Maps and Google Play. Apart from that, the system supports 9K display resolution. The curved screen is also the control centre for Cadillac’s OnStar and Super Cruise services. In fact, OnStar Remote Access is included for three years.

The 2025 Cadillac CT5 range will start with a 2.0-litre turbocharged engine producing 237hp/350Nm, with the 10-speed automatic feeding the oomph to the rear wheels. Those looking for more punch can settle for a 3.0-litre, twin-turbo V6 powerplant, which offers 335hp/550Nm. The option for an all-wheel-drive setup will also be available.

The wheel sizes range from 18 to 20 inches, all accompanied by all-weather rubber. And for an extra fee, the buyer could have the 2025 Cadillac CT5 sedan in one of the two metallic colours – Deep Space and Typhoon.

Of course, Cadillac hasn’t forgotten the CT5-V and CT5-V Blackwing versions. Updates about those will be revealed at a later date. The updated Cadillac CT5 will be manufactured at GM’s Lansing Grand River Assembly plant in Michigan, with the production set to start in spring 2024.
