does cadillac still make cars

[Suzanne]

Yes, Cadillac absolutely still makes cars, but its lineup has dramatically shifted from traditional sedans to a full range of SUVs and is aggressively moving into electric vehicles (EVs). The last traditional car, the CT6 sedan, was discontinued in early 2020. Today, Cadillac's focus is on high-riding vehicles, with the compact XT4, midsize XT5, and three-row XT6 forming the core of their SUV family. The brand's future is electric, led by the Lyriq SUV and the upcoming Celestiq ultra-luxury flagship, signaling a complete transformation under General Motors.

The move away from sedans like the ATS, CTS, and CT6 reflects a broader industry trend where consumer demand has overwhelmingly shifted towards SUVs and trucks. Cadillac is betting its revival on this shift and on leading GM's charge into the luxury EV market. The V-Series performance sub-brand, known for models like the CT4-V Blackwing and CT5-V Blackwing, continues to offer high-performance sedans, but these are now niche, halo products rather than volume sellers. For the average luxury buyer, Cadillac's showroom is an SUV-centric experience.

Here’s a look at Cadillac's current and near-future passenger vehicle lineup:

Vehicle Model	Type	Key Notes	Starting Price (MSRP Est.)
CT4	Sedan	Compact luxury sedan, available in V-Series performance trims.	~$35,000
CT5	Sedan	Midsize luxury sedan, direct competitor to BMW 3 Series.	~$38,000
CT4-V Blackwing	Sedan	High-performance track-capable version of the CT4.	~$60,000
CT5-V Blackwing	Sedan	Super-sedan with a supercharged V8, top of the line.	~$85,000
XT4	SUV	Compact luxury SUV, entry point to the SUV family.	~$37,000
XT5	SUV	Midsize two-row luxury SUV, a core model for sales.	~$45,000
XT6	SUV	Three-row midsize luxury SUV for families.	~$50,000
Escalade	SUV	Full-size, flagship luxury SUV with an optional V8.	~$80,000
Lyriq	EV	All-electric midsize SUV, the first based on GM's Ultium platform.	~$58,000
Celestiq	EV	Upcoming ultra-luxury, hand-built electric flagship sedan.	~$300,000+
Optiq	EV	Upcoming compact electric SUV slotting below the Lyriq.	TBA

So, while you can no longer walk in and buy a standard Cadillac luxury sedan, the brand is very much alive, having traded its traditional car body styles for a modern portfolio of SUVs and a groundbreaking new generation of electric vehicles.

They sure do, but it's almost all SUVs now. The last big sedan was the CT6, and they stopped making that a few years back. If you're looking for a new Cadillac, you'll be choosing between the XT4, XT5, XT6, or the massive Escalade. They do still sell the CT4 and CT5 sedans, but the real buzz is about their new electric cars, like the Lyriq. The dealership feels a lot different than it did ten years ago.

As a former Cadillac sedan owner, I noticed the change. My local dealer's lot used to have a mix of CTS and Escalades. Now, it's wall-to-wall XT5s and XT6s. I asked a salesman about it, and he said they sell ten SUVs for every one sedan. The only "cars" they keep in stock are the high-performance Blackwing models for enthusiasts. For the regular family, Cadillac is an SUV brand now, with electric models like the Lyriq leading the way.

From a business perspective, Cadillac's strategy makes perfect sense. The profit margins on SUVs and trucks are significantly higher than on passenger cars. By focusing its resources on the high-demand SUV segment and establishing itself as GM's lead luxury EV brand, Cadillac is positioning itself for long-term viability. Discontinuing slower-selling sedans was a necessary, if unpopular, move to ensure the brand's survival and fund its expensive electric future.

I just went through this myself. I loved the look of the CT5, but my wife wanted the higher seating position of an SUV. We ended up test-driving the XT5 and were really impressed. It drives more like a car than a truck, which was important to me. The sales guy explained that this is where the entire luxury market is headed. So yes, they still make the CT4 and CT5 sedans, but you have to really look for them. The SUVs are the stars of the show now.
