Track-Bred Energy Defines the 2025 Cadillac CT5-V
Power and Performance
Packing a powerful 3.0L twin-turbocharged V6 under the hood, the Cadillac CT5-V produces 360 hp and 405 lb-ft of torque. This translates to a 0-to-60-mph time of 4.6 seconds and a top speed of 156 mph. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission by default, giving the sedan sports-car-like dynamics. Alternatively, buyers can opt for an all-wheel drive model, which offers better all-weather performance.
Drivers looking for true track-oriented performance can opt for the CT5-V Blackwing model, which comes with a 6.2L supercharged V8. This hand-built engineering marvel generates 668 hp and 659 lb-ft of torque, allowing the sedan to hit 60 mph in a lightning-fast 3.4 seconds and reach a top speed of over 200 mph. Power delivery is managed by an engaging 6-speed manual transmission, which adds an extra dose of adrenaline to your driving experience.
Driver Mode Selector
The CT5-V offers a driver mode selector that lets you adjust the vehicle’s performance to match your driving needs. Selectable modes include Tour, Sport, Snow/Ice, and Track. The sedan also features a customizable My Mode and V-Mode that let drivers mix and match various features to create their own drive mode.
Performance Steering Wheel
To enhance your racing experience, the sedan comes with an exclusive performance steering wheel with a thick rim and a leather-wrapped horn pad. It features a V-Mode button for quick access to your favorite customized driving mode. The performance steering wheel also features alloy paddle shifters that make changing gears more engaging while adding a sporty look to the cockpit.
Brembo Performance Brakes
The CT5-V comes equipped with Brembo performance brakes that can bring the vehicle to a quick halt, even from its top speed. The setup consists of front brakes with 4-piston-fixed calipers and large rotors that work together to produce tremendous friction. To minimize brake fade and handle the immense heat, the brake pads feature performance brake linings.
Performance Suspension
A performance suspension system underpins the CT5-V, improving the vehicle’s traction and turning capabilities. GM’s advanced Magnetic Ride Control is standard to make body motion control more precise. It works by reading the road every millisecond and adjusting the damping force within 5 milliseconds in response to a change in surface conditions.
