5 reasons to buy the 2023 Cadillac CT4

1. High-performance options

For those interested in a luxury sedan with plenty of power behind it, the 2023 Cadillac CT4 ticks all the boxes and more. The top-of-the-line version is the CT4-V Blackwing, and it comes with a 3.6L V6 engine that achieves an incredible 472 hp. Some Blackwing models will also come with an optional 10-speed automatic gearbox. The 2023 Cadillac CT4 also gets up to speed with impressive vigor. The 2.7L 325-hp version accelerates from zero to 60 in only five seconds (according to the manufacturer), and even the base trim reaches highway speeds with ease. The 2023 Cadillac CT4 is a strong choice if power is a priority.

2. High-tech features

If you value technology in your car, you'll be pleased to know the 2023 Cadillac CT4 comes with plenty of exciting benefits in this area. Infotainment-wise, standard features include Android Auto and Apple CarPlay® connectivity, voice recognition, an eight-speaker stereo, an available Wi-Fi hotspot, Bluetooth® integration, and more.

There are also plenty of peace-of-mind features, like Buckle to Drive (which won't allow you to shift the car out of park until the driver's seat is buckled), and rear seat alert (prompting you to check the back seat before exiting the car). All of this is designed to make your life easier and your driving experience more comfortable.

3. New for 2023

There are a few new features for the 2023 Cadillac CT4 as of 2023. Feature-wise, this year marks the debut of a surround-view camera recording system, allowing you to make more informed decisions on the road, show off your surroundings, or collect evidence of poor behavior on the road. Additionally, there are three Track Editions for the CT4-V Blackwing: Watkins Glen Imsa Edition, Sebring Imsa Edition, and Road Atlanta Imsa Edition. These are extremely limited editions (99 of each) so consider yourself extremely fortunate if you happen to find one.

4. Lots of driver aids

You might feel more relaxed with the guiding hand of lots of driver aids at your fingertips, and the 2023 Cadillac CT4 is generously laden with them. As well as the surround-view recording system, there are rear parking sensors, forward collision warning, pedestrian detection, lane departure warning, lane-keep assist, and more – all of which are designed to give you additional confidence on the road. Specifically for the benefit of those inside the car, you'll find that the driver's seat vibrates to warn of potential hazards, while the Teen Driver feature allows you to set limits for your young driver — all as standard.

5. Strong all-rounder

The 2023 Cadillac CT4 truly has a broad appeal. Alongside the infotainment features and driver aids, there are four engine options: a 2.0L 237-hp base engine, alongside the 310-hp and 325-hp 2.7L versions, and of course the 472-hp Blackwing V6. It also manages to balance its performance with fuel economy, with the base AWD model achieving an EPA-estimated 23 combined mpg.

Besides all of this, the 2023 Cadillac CT4 boasts sharp, smart aesthetics and an exciting on-road experience, making it a great option if you're after a luxury small car.
