Very nice car
Great Cadillac for the price. Many people are switching to SUV's. It felt too tall for me. The Cadillac CT5 was a perfect choice. I previously owned the DTS. Lance Ross at Hennesy Cadillac in Atlanta was fantastic.

CT5 Premium Luxury AWD
My current 2017 CTS Vsport was in service, so I had the opportunity to drive the CT5 for a few days. Pros: although the outside dimensions have shrunk the car feels roomier inside. The car has good looks! The infotainment system is crisp, less glitchy and easier to use. There is more storage space compared to the previous generation. Pleasant and more accommodating. Cons: the car is underpowered. 45k for a 230hp 4 cylinder engine? In my opinion these are VW Passat numbers and should not be found in a premium sedan. The car is a dog, if you compare it to other 4 cylinder turbo charged engines from the competitors. I did not check 0-60 times but this feels slow. It will not sway any seasoned luxury car buyers. The next major drawback are the gages. These things were designed in the early nineties by a Pontiac Aztec engineer and were stored away for decades until a Cadillac designer found them lying around somewhere and decided to give them a try. Just plain meh. Opinion: the car is a downgrade compared to the previous generation. The looks might convince a few buyers to give this car a try, but I firmly believe that this will fall well short of the competition. It is Unfortunate that a brand new car feels like a downgrade to the previous generation. Yes there is a price advantage but overall the shortcomings are too obvious. I would not label this car as a failure but this does not offer any memorable anything that would make me want to upgrade to it.

Luxury - Overstated
The term Luxury is overstated for the base CT5. The word luxury leads you to believe that the vehicle would have basic features found on a standard Toyota, Honda, or Lexus that cost $37,000+. Features such as the following can be found in either of the vehicles above for that price: * Front and rear parking sensors * Lane departure * Adaptive Cruise control * Blind spot warning * Auto adjusting mirrors when backing * Ventilated front seats (front) * Memory seats The vehicle performs well and looks great.
