What colour looks better on the CT4-V? White or black?
I prefer black, but white looks clean to me.
For the CT4-V, white really works.
White as long as it’s clean!!! 🛁🛁
White!
Black
This channel, among a few others, helped me decide to get one of these. Mine is almost identical to the white one in this video except I have the medium android satin finish on my wheels instead of the graphite. Coming from a 2018 Audi A4 Quattro S Line, which I loved very much, I am impressed by just how good this car is. It's way more engaging than the A4. While it doesn't have as pleasing an interior to look at, it certainly is a high quality interior. To anyone shopping in the compact/subcompact segment, you owe it to yourself to drive one. Even if you ultimately decide on another vehicle, I think you'll be very impressed with this car, nevertheless.
Personally I find this interior a lot better than that fake vent that goes across the whole dash in the Audi. Could also be that I had a prius and that audi vent reminds me way too much of it lol
You nailed it! I had a CT5 Sport prior to my 21 CT4-V and although I do miss the stability of the CT5, this car is just way too much fun to drive. Cadillac is putting out drivers cars, not your old mans Cadillac like they used to.
I have the 2022 CT4 V Blackwing and it’s awesome with 472 hp 445 torque 6 speed manual. Traded a 21 Corvette on it . I’m not sad at all.
I love the analog gauges on the CT4-V. They look very crisp, easy to read, and I like how the digital portion fills the space which isn't digital so it doesn't look like you have a base model vehicle. The old ATS had a horrible gauge cluster and I am glad they improved it. It's also really nice how this is one of the only compact cars that have heated AND cooled seats.
Agreed!
New one has a cool digital one. It also looks so awesome
This is my new favorite review channel! I love watching CZcams channels grow.
Thanks David!
Looking forward to the future
So underrated. GM did a great job with the ct4 and ct5. The only thing they need to step up is the interior. And that spoiler should be black. It would look so much better.
I'm not too disappointed with the interior. I thought GM used nice materials. Carbon fiber, leather, hard button toggles, nice piping on seats. Better interior than my 19 2SS 1LE. I did like the Recaro seats in the 'Maro, but they weren't as plush as these.
Happy that 2021 will bring the full digital dash. Great review as always! Watched it on the big screen to take it your visual work. Love the design inside (minus the analog cluster) and out.
Yes!
Just reviewing the ct5 v as we speak!
@@ACCELER8TV excellent! Will check it out when it’s up!
Thanks for the great detailed video👌🏻🙌🏻🤘🏻
Been watching you videos since weekend. Became a fan and subscribed. Great details and awesome videos bruh
This is genuinely good content, dude
I think that four sounds great.
I loved my ATS 3.6. I'd love to drive this!
I low-key want to trade in my ATS for this one too
I currently have a 2015 ats 3.6 premium with performance pkg
Had it for almost 4 years now and still get the wow factor every time I drive it! Love it. Not sure if next will be the 4v or 5v but can't wait. I'm a cheap bastard so I always buy used with low miles. Coming soon
I just traded in my 2018 ATS 3.6 and bought this vehicle . Absolutely worth it in my opinion .
I was thinking about getting one, and I didn’t even know that Magnetic Ride control was only available in RWD. Thank you.
No worries!
Just got a 2023 V. Personally love it. While the growl of the Blackwing would be awesome, paying another $20-25k isn't. Launched mine and did a respectable 0-60 in 4.2, can't complain.
Yes it's because he got it wrong 0-60 is 4.5 seconds not 5.
Great review! Just found your channel! Subscribed!! 🍻 🍻
Always a fun review.
I agree but I think the “V” button is just to give you an instant performance and mostly sound option.
This channel is very precise and professional when reviewing cars and that I love and respect. New sub and expect great things from this channel ✅
🤯
Gotta say, I’m 6:15 into this vid and you’re awesome! This is the first I’ve seen of you. Ok, let’s finish and see.
Nobody talked on Audi when they introduced the RS line as the top dog variant and shifted the S cars down a notch. This is exactly what Cadillac is doing with the V. Idk about Canada, but in the US you can option the standard CT4 with a detuned 2.7 out of the CT4-V. So essentially you have a base, base with power upgrade, performance tuned, then the premier performance trim.
I’m in the market and debating between ct4 and bmw 330i (due to its mpg). I really like the ct4 cause I don’t see too many out there and it has a very sleek look. Maybe I’ll wait til they update the odometer and improve a bit more on materials but I’m leaning towards Cadillac
It’ll be tough to find the RWD here in Canada, but agreed I’d go that way too. Wish it sounded better and had more top end.
Nice review. Would have liked some time to be spent on particulars of the interior. I don't find the dash dated, but I much prefer the dash and interior of the XTS. I don't like CUE sitting on the dash like it was placed there like a tablet...it should have been integrated into the dash.
Tip: When using sport manual the only thing you have to be concerned with are the upshifts, not the downshifts. The downshifts will be controlled by the computer and automatically happen as you slow down. Using the paddles to unshift will get you to redline as long is that is where you want it to go - naturally you could upshift at any point in the proper rpm range for that particular shift...but not allow you to go past it.
It's not always quickest to shift at redline, but you could've put it in manual shift and held out till red line...
I'm pretty sure if the engine isn't broken in yet, the car won't let itself hit redline.
Once the engine is broken in the redline moves to what is shown on the cluster.
Excellent review! Cadillac has done well with the CT4-V as an ATS replacement. Can you check another CT4-V at the dealer to see if it hits the 6k rev limit. The shifting instructions are based in software programing. Maybe the dealer can re-flash the computer. A follow-up would be much appreciated. Cheers!
How's the space? Does it feel like a small/tight car when you sit in it? or has a good amount of comfort for the driver?
Can't wait to see you with 1 mil subscribers kid....!
Appreciate that
Que tengan muchos éxitos bendecidos plebes!!!
Right on pleba 😂
HI SPEC QUALITY VIDEO......IMMA CRY!!!!
Thanks man!
Amazing quality review. Do you think this handles better than a 340i?
How’s the sound system from Bose?
Keep doing what you doing man! Your work is very detailed! You can see that this channel will grow right away! This is million subscribers channel easy.
Appreciate that!
Step by step!
People just needs to complain about Cadillac GM period it doesn't matter what they do smh like they came to there house and smacked the shit out of them and stole there money go figure I think this and the ct5 v is 🔥 motor trend said the ct5 v rear wheel drive was best in class as far as being a sports car
Exactly. All he did, for the most part, was complain about this car. Watch the top trending CZcamsrs review of this car and, they give it a good review. The new interior is miles better than the previous version. He needs to make some references to the older CTS’s as well.
I can't decide between this or the G70 3.3t but I'm learning toward the G70
your channel its very veryyyyyyyyy GOOD. lucky
Thank you!
Very Nice design, but needs some exhaust upgrade... A8 if guys could review grand Cherokee SRT would be great 👍
We will work on it man!
Oh don't get me started on how the 2014 ATS doesn't have a latch for you to pull down the backseat. I found out the hard way when I locked my keys in the trunk and had to "surgically" rip open my back seat
CT4-V rwd is quicker to 60 then the CT5 . Car and driver got 4.4 to 60 and others got 4.5. 5.0 secs is the AWD version.
No wonder, this thing flies
I am seriously debated getting the RWD over the AWD. I figure I will regret not having AWD about 8 or 9 days a year driving in the crappy weather. But AWD I will regret the rest of the days. Any suggestions and opinions?
I’m on the same mindset as you, it’s not worth the time
Sure would be cool if they took advantage of the truck motor sitting higher up and stuffed an electric motor or two under the front end to make it an awd hybrid.
Yes sir, make the gauges digital. Trucks will be doing this soon.
How about a 2020 C43 AMG REVIEW. (please try to find a spec with the AMG performance exhaust:)
Starting to get cold here so I’m not sure if I can get a 2020 in there.. however I do have a GT coming!
@@ACCELER8TV no worries 😉
I am really thinking about trading in my ATS for this bad boy
Getting close. Needs a manual trans, better interior, and mag ride on the awd version. Great video! Thanks.
Im in luv
This car definitely is about 5 seconds 0-60, if even that. I just test drove the car and it honestly doesn't feel all that fast. However, the PRICE is really good for this level of performance.
One thing I will add now that I have driven the ct5 for a week straight (like the ct4) is that, this 10 speed transmission is not consistent.
You have to be in the right mode, to really get the full performance.
0-60 is 4.5 look it up
@@betochipistube6543 these times are prime conditions, with a light enough driver, and a lot of times have a small rollout distance. I've driven the car, you can't tell me otherwise.
@BN99239 I have also drivin the car and tested it
@@betochipistube6543 and you've gotten 4.5 on it?
Speaking down about a new car doesn’t make you sound knowledgeable, just stuck in the past. Nice test drive.
Cadillac are rivers now...
I got a 0-100kph of 7 seconds, which is pretty slow compared to Bimmer, Audi, or even Acura type s specs. in the price range
You must have tested there regular basic CT4
Sounds good but my VW eight speed was better in manual. It was always searching.
Is engine ?8 cylinder?
This CT4-V is a turbocharged 4-cylinder - if you get the CT4-V Blackwing it comes with a twin-turbo V6.
19 inch wheels? I thought they were 18 inch.
I just leased the car the only thing I hate when you drive it the engine makes a whistling noise even when when cruising it’s kinda annoying.I thought it was a issue with the car maybe it’s normal
It’s the turbo blowoff valve. It should be normal
What’s the Price??? Need to add MSRP in your vids please.
True! I figure people get that from every other channel out there. They just talk about information you can very easily get. However I should tho
Running it to redline isn't always necessarily the fastest way to accelerate...
The back of the CT5 is much nicer looking than the CT4.
100% yes.
0-60 is not 5 seconds it's 4.5 seconds.
the only competitive advantage might only be the price for this car
I think exterior design too, just not the interior design lol
You can't compare the interior of this car to an Escalade, which starts at over $75,000.
It is faster to 60 than 5 seconds... It does 0-60 in 4.6 seconds
Bravo finally someone who knows 0-60
To me this car is a fail. Because that engine. You should not compare this to BMW M340. That engine is refined and smooth and powerful. This Silverado turbo four sounds bad and shifts in your driving were weak.
Sure, quantity of sales mean they should reuse. Here is some food for thought. Why not put a truck engine in this vehicle? Hmmm. How about replacing garbage four turbo with the 5.3 V8? I double guarantee they sell a ton. It be more reliable. And any GM mechanic working Silverado or Tahoe’s knows GM 5.3.
Sad because otherwise your review is right on. Good looking and nice interior and great ride and handling.
The challenge I have to the engine argument is the lightness and toss-ability (if that's even a word) of this vs putting a v8 in it.
Thanks for watching! As always!
I don’t get it. Half of y’all complain that Cadillac’s drive so good and sporty, they’ve lost their American heritage by “chasing the Germans”. The other half complain that they aren’t enough like the Germans they look so distinct from and drive better than.
Slowly it will change!
@@ACCELER8TV true!
is this a some america`s trend with black rims? Black rims just sucks...
The V button is a customize button and you didn't customize the settings. You have to do more research before reviewing. Additionally the engine wasn't under load when you did that clip PLUS I bet you didn't adjust the active exhaust. Finally the screen is tilted so you look down at it like a phone instead of slapped even all high on the dash. Oh and you take it out of Sport and put in tour then wonder why it is not going to redline. Dude do better
Dude.
No, no one want “almost good thing”, we want the best, and we take only the best. Period
If so, get ready to spend the big bucks on the vehicle and insurance.
You opened the trunk and avoided let us know: Does the car have a spare tire or just a can of shaving cream? I had a CTS and i did not realize it didn't have a spare until I needed it. Stuck for 12 hours in the middle of nowhere until I could get help. From now on: No spare - No buy.
Ok!!! Audi driver. Watched. Sorry it’s still far away from German standards.
BMW driver here. Also not impressed
Cadillac ATS driver here, ex Audi and BMW driver. You two have no idea how good and predictable the Alpha platform is.
@@kyle166666bro BMW is garbage they are money pits 😅😂
So, to every CZcams video or person crying over how the CT4,CT5,and discontinued CT6 V cars aren't the CTS V they never had anyways lol......y'all right, same as that out dated CTS V isn't a Blackwing....so just hush. What about the ATS V? still in the 10s with little mods. Don't like it...dont buy it....
TRUCK MOTOR
😂
The CTS saved Cadillac. This is gonna burn them again!! This is nothing more than an over priced glorified Chevy Malibu. The CT5 is the Impala equivalent!👎👎👎
I actually really enjoyed driving the CT4-V, felt great and handled amazing. Can't speak for the regular CT4 though, haven't driven one. Blackwing versions are coming. They'll be like the old school V's were.
lower the music, its so annoying. I could've enjoyed this review more if it wasnt for that.
Thanks for the feedback!
I enjoy the audio levels.
Yet another POS from GM
