The Cadillac CT6 is a 4-door sedan from Cadillac, built from 2016, as electrification stopped being an experiment and the crossover took every market. Under the bonnet: Petrol engine.

Where it came from

The Cadillac CT6 (short for Cadillac Touring 6) is a full-size luxury car manufactured by Cadillac starting in 2016 over two generations. The first generation CT6 was introduced at the 2015 New York International Auto Show and went on sale in the U.S. in March 2016.

It is the first car to adopt the brand's revised naming strategy, as well as the first rear-wheel drive full-size Cadillac sedan since the Fleetwood was discontinued in 1996. In 2020, the CT6 was discontinued in the United States. The second generation CT6 made its public debut in May 2023, and is exclusively sold in China.

Under the skin

Power comes from Petrol engine; other versions carried different engines, listed in the specification table below. It weighs 3666 -. It shifts through a 8-speed GM 8L45 transmission / Hydra-Matic 8L45 automatic / 8-speed GM 8L90 transmission / Hydra-Matic 8L90 automatic / 10-speed Ford-GM 10-speed automatic transmission / Hydra-Mat. The wheelbase is 122.4 in. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.

In context

Its family tree is legible: assembly was at Detroit, Michigan. Its contemporaries in the catalogue — the Chevrolet Bolt, the Ford Escort, the Tesla Model 3 — show what else the money bought that year. Nearby in the Cadillac catalogue sit the Cadillac 353 and the Cadillac ATS.

What it costs now

The money question first: $20,200–$42,400 is the typical asking range today, and running it — fuel and maintenance at its age — costs about $3,652–$5,310 a year. Insurance sits around $1,730–$2,910 a year. The figures are class-level estimates from the federal record, with the formula on the methodology page; the model-year pages carry complaints, recalls and repair costs year by year.
