2019 Cadillac CTS

In our testing, we found the 2014 CTS delivers an inviting blend of comfort, quietness, and a sporty driving performance. The world-class cabin offers excellent fit and finish, acres of padding, and sumptuous genuine leather. The front seats are very comfortable, but the flush-mounted, touch-activated switches are an aggravation. The best blend of features and price is the Luxury Collection trim package with real leather, a folding rear seat, HID headlights, forward-collision warning, blind spot monitoring, and heated/ventilated front seats. The high-end V-Sport is a treat to drive, with effortless thrust. Changes for 2015 included a standard built-in WiFi hotspot. Updates for 2016 included a new eight-speed automatic transmission, a 335-hp 3.6-liter V6, 360-degree camera, and the addition of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to the infotainment system. 2019 was the final year for the CTS.
