2-Line Blurb

140-Character Blurb

The 2025 Cadillac CT5-V and 2025 CT5-V Blackwing are midsize luxury sedans transformed into desirable high-performance machines.

Cons

<ul>
<li>Blackwing rear-wheel drive (RWD) only</li>
<li>V disappointing mpg</li>
</ul>

Power, Ride and Handling

Driving Impressions

A twin-turbocharged V6 endows the CT5-V with 360 hp and the ability to accelerate from a standstill to 60 mph in a rapid 4.6 seconds. That’s the same sprint time as the 375-hp BMW 540i xDrive.
Chances are that buyers zooming in on the CT5-V Blackwing are approaching not from the more sedate CT5 variants but after looking at high-performance cars like the BMW M5 or Mercedes-AMG E 63 S and wanting to spend thousands of dollars less, while still having a well-tuned adaptive sport suspension and a supercharged V8 making massive power.
Actually, both CT5-V models have a sport-tuned adaptive suspension as standard, enabling drivers to select between comfortable and firmer settings. It’s just that the Blackwing also enjoys a mighty 668 hp and will zip from zero to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds. It’s a performance bargain.
<h3>Fuel Economy</h3>
Economy probably isn’t a priority for CT5-V or CT5-V Blackwing buyers, but here are the numbers anyway. CT5-V rear-wheel drive: 21 mpg in combined city/highway driving. With all-wheel drive, it’s almost the same, except for 26 mpg on the highway (instead of 27 mpg). For reference, the all-wheel-drive BMW 540i xDrive achieves 28 mpg combined.
The rear-drive-only Blackwing returns 15 mpg combined (13 city, 20 highway) with an automatic transmission. The manual transmission returns the same figures, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
We aren’t going to compare these figures with those of the BMW M5 or either E-Class AMG models, because they’re all plug-in hybrids.

Revised Exterior

Exterior

A few minor alterations bring the 2025 CT5-V’s appearance more into line with the rest of Cadillac’s current portfolio. The grille is lower and wider than before, the front air intakes have been reshaped to be more vertical, and the LED headlights are now stacked. These V cars also gain quad exhaust outlets with trapezoidal tips.
New paint choices this year are Deep Space Metallic (black), Drift Metallic (light blue), and Typhoon Metallic (a kind of emerald green).

FAQs

Our Favorite Features and Tech

Favorite Features

Infotainment system 
Accessed through the new 33-inch touchscreen unit, this system has Google Built-In, allowing access to apps like Google Maps, Google Play (video games), and Google Assistant. Users can even set up their own personalized interface.
Super Cruise 
This standard feature is a hands-free adaptive cruise control system that works on certain highways (approaching 750,000 miles of them in North America). The driver’s eyes must always be engaged &#8212; no scrolling through Instagram on the phone, for example. Super Cruise can also execute safe lane changes. We’ve used it. It works.
Brembo brakes 
For anyone who might not know, Brembo counts top marques like Aston Martin and Ferrari among its many high-class clients. The CT5-V has Brembo brakes up front, the Blackwing has them on each wheel.
Performance data and video recorder 
This optional feature can improve an owner’s track performance and preserve their best laps. It shows plenty of crucial details, offers speed tips, and even displays information for a driving coach in the front passenger seat.
AKG audio 
AKG is a big and well-respected name in the sound reproduction business. The CT5-V has a 15-speaker system, while the CT5-V Blackwing comes with a 16-speaker setup.
Manual transmission in the CT5-V Blackwing 
Imagine the meeting when one of the engineers suggested putting a 6-speed stick shift into this midsize luxury sedan. After the initial shock, everyone must have thought: “Well, the CT5-V Blackwing is ultra-sporty, and a manual transmission could appeal to all the true enthusiasts out there.” It is. And it does.

Sporty and Tech-y Interior

Interior

When talking about the regular CT5, it’s at this point that we would moan a bit about cheaper materials found here and there, and how they shouldn’t be in a luxury car. We’re going to give the CT5-V models a pass, however, because the performance-per-dollar ratio buys the cars a fair amount of leeway. In addition, the 2025 CT5-V gains a large 33-inch display containing an instrument cluster and an infotainment touchscreen, raising the tech levels.
Naturally, the front seats are of the sporty variety, with plenty of side support for those times when the driver feels like taking a quick corner. Generally speaking, the CT5 has a decent amount of space and respectable levels of standard equipment. Rear legroom of 37.9 inches is good for the class and absolutely fine for adults of average build. Trunk space of 11.9 cubic feet is not so great. This is one of the smallest in the class, and the narrow aperture makes dealing with large suitcases unnecessarily tricky.

KBB Editors' Overview

It’s good to see homegrown contenders going up against stiff competition from Europe and emerging with credibility. The CT5-V Blackwing does exactly that, while costing much less. The less powerful yet still capable and enjoyable CT5-V also makes a strong argument for itself. It may seem odd to talk about how a couple of cars from <a href="https://www.kbb.com/cadillac/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cadillac,</a> of all places, are considered bona fide enthusiast machines, but that’s how good these CT5-V models really are.

Optional Equipment

Pricing - Dynamic

The 2025 Cadillac CT5-V has a starting sticker price of $58,490, with the range-topping CT5-V Blackwing kicking off at $97,090.

Rivals to the CT5-V might include the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/bmw/5-series/">BMW 5 Series</a> &#8212; we’re thinking of the 540i xDrive sedan specifically, although it’s substantially pricier and not quite as sporty. Similarly, the CT5-V Blackwing has no like-for-like competition. The <a href="https://www.kbb.com/bmw/m5/">BMW M5</a>, for example, is a plug-in hybrid and costs about $20,000 more.

Trims

Under the Hood

The 2025 CT5-V employs a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 developing a punchy 360 hp and 405 lb-ft of torque, with this energy going to either the rear wheels or an optional all-wheel drive system. The CT5-V Blackwing packs a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 generating an awesome 668 hp and 659 lb-ft, and it’s rear-wheel-drive exclusively.
The CT5-V comes with a 10-speed automatic transmission, while the Blackwing has a 6-speed manual transmission as standard. A 10-speed automatic is available as an option.
There’s also <a href="https://www.kbb.com/cadillac/ct5/">the regular CT5 lineup</a>, which we review separately.
<h3>4-Year/50,000-Mile Warranty</h3>
Cadillac’s new-car warranty lasts four years or 50,000 miles, whichever happens first. That’s common among luxury car makers, although the powertrain warranty is a little better than usual: six years or 70,000 miles, including roadside assistance. The first scheduled service is also free.
<h3>Safety Ratings</h3>
This generation of CT5 has earned a maximum 5-Star overall score from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (<a href="https://www.nhtsa.gov/ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NHTSA</a>). Standard safety features include forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian detection, rear parking sensors, and a vibrating safety alert driver&#8217;s seat.

What's new for 2025

Both variants receive revised styling, fresh paint choices, a lighting sequence for approaches and departures, quad trapezoid exhaust tips, and a new 33-inch master display incorporating an instrument cluster and an infotainment touchscreen powered by a new Google-based operating system, plus the performance data/lap recorder software has also been upgraded. Additionally, the Blackwing now offers carbon fiber packages.

The 2025 Cadillac CT4-V turns a reasonably priced compact luxury sedan into a credible thrill machine.

The CT4-V develops 325 horsepower and can sprint from standstill to 60 mph in an entertaining 4.8 seconds. Although the BMW M340i enjoys 386 hp and would be more than half a second up the road at 60 mph, CT4-V drivers can console themselves with the fact that they spent around $10,000 less. Yet the CT4-V still comes with equipment like a sport-tuned adaptive suspension, upgraded brakes, limited-slip differential, and a sport exhaust system.
Things get much more exciting with the CT4-V Blackwing. This 472-hp sports sedan is capable of dispatching 60 mph in just 3.9 seconds. The base BMW M3 only has one more horse under its hood and isn’t any quicker than the Blackwing, even though it’s much pricier. Like the M3, the Blackwing has a dedicated suspension and plenty of other components to exploit this superb amount of muscle. It can even come with a 6-speed manual transmission.
<h3>Fuel Economy</h3>
With rear-wheel drive (RWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD), the CT4-V achieves 23 mpg in combined city/highway driving. To compare, the BMW M340i manages 29 mpg combined, regardless of the number of driven wheels.
The CT4-V Blackwing manual is estimated to return 18 mpg combined, which is close enough to the BMW M3’s 19 mpg combined not to matter. The automatic version does match the M3 at 19 mpg combined.

Businesslike Exterior

There’s the slight air of a sleeper car in the CT4-V. It doesn’t call too much attention to itself, apart from its arguably handsome general looks. When we get to the CT4-V Blackwing, there’s the rear, um, wing. Well, the rear spoiler on the trunk lid.
Along with a new alloy wheel design this year, the CT4-V now offers a light blue Drift Metallic paint finish.

Wireless phone integration 
Cable-free Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard in the 2025 CT4-V models. Wireless charging is also included.
Cadillac Smart System 
This standard set of safety features includes forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian detection, rear parking sensors, and a vibrating safety alert driver&#8217;s seat.
Driver Assist package 
This standard array includes adaptive cruise control, enhanced automatic emergency braking, and reverse automatic braking.
Manual transmission 
Yes indeed, a 6-speed stick shift is standard in the powerful 2025 CT4-V Blackwing, the only car of its class to do so. Driving purists can rejoice.
AKG audio 
This fine 15-speaker system is reserved for the Blackwing. The CT4-V has to make do with a Bose setup, which doesn’t thrill us quite so much.
Brembo brakes 
These standard items are fitted to the front wheels, and the Blackwing has them at the rear as well. Brembo supplies many top marques, like Ferrari and Aston Martin.

Sporty Interior

We’re aware that the non-V CT4 variants are a little disappointing in terms of cabin materials, but Cadillac makes more of an effort with these V cars. As well as sportier front seats (now 8-way power-adjustable in the CT4-V), things like carbon fiber accents and simulated suede make their way in. However, rear legroom measures a relatively small 33.4 inches, while trunk space of 10.7 cubic feet is also unimpressive.

The CT4-V, as its name implies, is based on the regular Cadillac CT4. Turning it into a sportier machine involves a generous amount of go-faster hardware, along with aerodynamic tweaks to the body, and a special calibration of the suspension. This may seem outside the traditional smooth-riding <a href="https://www.kbb.com/cadillac/">Cadillac</a> wheelhouse, but the engineers working on these cars really know their stuff. Both the CT4-V and the CT4-V Blackwing have forged fine reputations among enthusiasts, especially the Blackwing.

The 2025 Cadillac CT4-V has a starting sticker price of $48,790, with the range-topping CT4-V Blackwing kicking off at $63,690.

Rivals like the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/audi/s5/">Audi S5</a>, <a href="https://www.kbb.com/bmw/3-series/">BMW 3 Series</a> (the M340i specifically), and the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/mercedes-benz/mercedes-amg-c-class/">Mercedes-AMG C-Class</a> are all markedly more expensive. Even the high-performance CT4-V Blackwing is kind of a bargain, stacking up well against the far pricier <a href="https://www.kbb.com/bmw/m3/">BMW M3</a>.
Before buying a new Cadillac CT4-V luxury sport sedan, check the Kelley Blue Book Fair Purchase Price to know what you should be paying. Resale values are quite far below the class average. Recouping more money when selling a vehicle can mean a bigger down payment and lower monthly payments on the next one.

A turbocharged 2.7-liter 4-cylinder engine propels the CT4-V with 325 hp and 380 lb-ft of torque, one of the lower outputs in this compact luxury/sports sedan class. This goes to a standard rear-wheel-drive setup or an optional all-wheel drive system through a 10-speed automatic transmission.
The CT4-V Blackwing uses a twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 to send a forceful 472 hp and 445 lb-ft of torque solely to the rear wheels. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard, or there’s that 10-speed auto available.
There&#8217;s also <a href="https://www.kbb.com/cadillac/ct4/">the regular CT4 lineup</a>, which we review separately.
<h3>4-Year/50,000-Mile Warranty</h3>
Cadillac’s new-car warranty lasts four years or 50,000 miles, whichever happens first. That’s common among luxury car makers, although the powertrain warranty is a little better than usual: six years or 70,000 miles, including roadside assistance. The first scheduled service is also free.
<h3>Safety Ratings</h3>
The overall CT4 lineup hasn’t been crash-tested by any independent agencies in the United States. Standard safety features include forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian detection, rear parking sensors, and a vibrating safety alert driver&#8217;s seat.

The 2025 CT4-V gains 8-way power-adjustable front seats, a new design for its alloy wheels, and the option of Drift Metallic (light blue) paintwork.

The all-new 2026 Hyundai Palisade improves on the strengths of this midsize 3-row SUV with more space, updated tech, and hybrid efficiency.

Studly Wrapper

The 2026 Hyundai Palisade Hybrid gets a bold look in line with the non-hybrid model. Stacked LED blocks make up the front and rear light signatures while pronounced wheel arches give the body a little muscle. A rugged-looking XRT Pro model is part of the Palisade&#8217;s redesign, but it&#8217;s not available with the hybrid powertrain.

Hybrid powertrain 
This is the first time the wonderful Hyundai Palisade has ever offered a hybrid option. On paper, it makes more power and torque than the V6 in the non-hybrid Palisade, and it can tow up to 4,000 pounds. We can&#8217;t wait to test it.
Dual 12.3-inch displays 
These big, high-tech, and user-friendly displays serve as the digital gauge cluster and infotainment display. We love them in every Hyundai model we&#8217;ve tested.
Wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay 
These essential smartphone connectivity features make it effortless to bring your maps, music, and more to the screen in the car without taking your phone out of your purse or pocket. It&#8217;s always good to see them come standard.
Relaxation seating 
Available Relaxation seating brings recliners to the second-row and front passenger seats of the Palisade Hybrid. Power reclining seats with leg supports used to be reserved for expensive luxury vehicles, but now they&#8217;re available in a Hyundai family SUV.
100-watt capable USB-C ports 
Pretty much every new car has <a href="https://www.kbb.com/car-advice/vehicles-with-usb-c-chargers/">USB-C ports</a>, but the ones in the Palisade Hybrid are capable of charging at speeds of up to 100 watts. That means faster charging for your devices, and it can even keep a laptop powered up through demanding tasks like gaming and video streaming.
Hyundai Digital Key 2.0 
Can&#8217;t find your keys? No problem. With the new Hyundai Palisade Hybrid, you can use your phone as a key. Your smartphone or smartwatch can lock, unlock, and start this SUV, and you can even share digital keys with family and friends.

Upscale Interior

We&#8217;re eager to climb into the cabin of the all-new 2026 Hyundai Palisade Hybrid. Interior space and seat comfort are strong suits of the outgoing model, and the new model should be even better in those important criteria. We never cared for the gearshift buttons in the Palisade, and the new model replaces those with a steering column shifter that turns like an old-fashioned key for shifting into drive and reverse. We also like the dual 12.3-inch displays when we&#8217;ve tested them in other <a href="https://www.kbb.com/hyundai/">Hyundai models</a>, so we welcome their addition to the Palisade.
Hyundai says the new Palisade has a &#8220;reimagined third row.&#8221; In addition to a little extra space in the way-back seats, it has bigger windows back there, letting in more natural light, which should help to make it feel a little less cramped while improving visibility for the driver. Interestingly, the Palisade Hybrid&#8217;s second row has less leg room than the non-hybrid by about an inch and a half, but the cargo space and third-row leg room are the same. Something to keep in mind if you want maximum interior space.
A few new interior options we look forward to testing include Relaxation seats (recliners with leg supports), 100-watt fast-charging USB-C ports, and a Bose 14-speaker surround audio system. Since Blue SEL Premium is the base trim in the Palisade Hybrid, a few upscale standard features include H-Tex leatherette seats, second-row captain&#8217;s chairs (a bench is optional), heated and ventilated first- and second-row seats, rear sun shades, and a surround-view camera.

You could&#8217;ve called the Hyundai Palisade the rookie of the year when it first arrived on the scene in 2020. It was as good as or better than well-established veterans in the competitive class of midsize 3-row SUVs, and it&#8217;s been one of our favorites in its class ever since. Now, the Palisade is getting even better for 2026 as it enters its second generation. The first-ever Hyundai Palisade Hybrid is part of the redesign, and a non-hybrid version (<a href="https://www.kbb.com/hyundai/palisade/2026/">reviewed separately</a>) will still be available. The new Palisade stays true to form with a spacious and upscale 3-row interior, class-leading warranty coverage, and luxurious upper trims but adds a modern new look, updated technology, and what Hyundai calls a &#8220;reimagined third row.&#8221;

We estimate that the 2026 Hyundai Palisade Hybrid will start at about $48,000 for the base Blue SEL Premium trim. This would be a big jump in starting price over the non-hybrid Palisade, but that version has the more affordable SE and SEL trims slotted below its non-Blue SEL Premium trim (&#8220;Blue&#8221; means &#8220;hybrid&#8221; in Hyundai-speak). For the Limited and Calligraphy trims, expect to pay around $3,000 extra for the hybrid powertrain over their V6-powered counterparts.
