The 2025 Cadillac CT5 is a mid-size luxury sedan that has been refreshed with a new look and new technology. The CT5 aims to compete with rivals such as the BMW 5 Series, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, and the Audi A6, offering a blend of comfort, performance, and style.
The most noticeable change in the 2025 CT5 is the front end, which features a wider and more prominent grille, a redesigned fascia, and new LED headlights that combine the signature vertical accents with stacked main and high-beam elements. The new headlights give the CT5 a more aggressive and sophisticated appearance, while also improving visibility and safety. The rear end remains largely unchanged, except for some minor tweaks to the taillights and bumper. The CT5 also offers two new exterior colors: Dark Emerald Frost and Infrared Tintcoat.
The interior of the 2025 CT5 has also been upgraded with a massive 33-inch LED display that spans across the dashboard. This display serves as a digital instrument cluster, an infotainment touchscreen, and a secondary touchscreen to the left of the steering wheel. The display has a stunning 9K resolution and runs on the Android Automotive operating system, which allows you to access Google Maps, Google Assistant, Google Play Store, and Amazon Alexa Built-In. You can also use wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to connect your smartphone to the display. The display is curved and tilted towards the driver for better ergonomics and visibility.
The 2025 CT5 also offers a 5G Wi-Fi hotspot for faster and more reliable internet connectivity. You can use this hotspot to stream music, videos, or games on your devices, or to access online services such as OnStar or SiriusXM.
