Narrow year range (drag arrows to filter):
2012 CTS models receive a new available 318-horsepower V6 engine, three new exterior colors (Black Diamond, Opulent Blue and Mocha Steel) and standard Bluetooth hands-free phone capability. The exterior colors are also available for the CTS-V models, as well as an available blind spot warning system for the coupe model.
A fuel-saving 3.0-liter gasoline direct injection V6 is now the CTS' standard engine. New features include an air filtration unit with automatic cabin odor filtration and available 19-inch polished aluminum wheels. Later in the model year, a wagon version will join the CTS lineup (reviewed separately).
Building upon Cadillac's commitment to reestablish its place as the world's standard of luxury, the 2012 CTS lineup aims to bring the fight directly to its European and Japanese competitors with a brand-new powerplant, additional standard equipment and a host of high-tech features. For 2012, variety is the name of the game. With sedan, coupe, and wagon models, high-performance CTS-V variants for each body style, and available all-wheel drive (AWD), the Cadillac CTS series is perhaps the most diverse nameplate in the luxury segment.

"My Deville Concours was in the shop for repairs that were taking longer than expected, so dealer set me up with a rental for a week. I got a 2013 CTS sedan in pearl white. I drove for a week and never stopped smiling. It had the DI engine that made entry to the expressway feel like a ride at the amusement park. Super fast and easy to drive, almost gave myself hearing damage with the Bose stereo and subwoofer. My only complaint is the front seats were a little confining between the door and the center console. I'm quite tall, and getting in and out in heels and a skirt was a bit of a challenge. Will definitely get one when it's time to buy a car in the future!"

"The body lines are stealthy inside and out and the location of all of the gadgets are convenient much like the cockpit of an airplane. It handles like my corvette and the 304HP engine has more than enough power. My only complaint is the seats while wrapped in italian stitched leather the cushioning is a bit hard witch for a cady seems kinda odd."
