How long is the Cadillac CT5?
3 Answers
The Cadillac CT5 has a length of 4924mm, a width of 1883mm, and a height of 1459mm, with a wheelbase of 2947mm. It features a fastback design, giving the overall styling a distinctive and fashionable appearance. Additionally, the long hood and short rear design enhance its sporty appeal. The long hood, short front overhang design, and the ultra-long 2947mm wheelbase, along with the Alpha diamond-shaped corner window at the C-pillar and the integrated ducktail spoiler, create a more defined fastback silhouette. The vehicle's taut, sculpted character lines, the integrated star-shaped door handles, and the first-time use of a new key design further enhance its premium look.
Last week I just helped my cousin measure his newly acquired CT5. The 4924mm body length is indeed imposing. This size will protrude slightly beyond standard parking spaces, requiring an extra couple of reverses when parking at malls. The trunk can vertically fit three 28-inch suitcases, and the rear seat cushions are deliberately shortened to make the legroom appear more spacious. It drives quite nimbly though - the rear-wheel-drive car has a smaller turning radius than expected, allowing U-turns on narrow roads with just one full turn of the wheel.
My old residential parking space is 5.3 meters long, and the CT5 still has 20 cm of its front overhanging when parked. I initially bought it because I was drawn to its 4924 mm body length that exudes presence, and the fastback design makes the side profile particularly sleek. However, the most practical feature is its 2947 mm wheelbase—my mother-in-law can stretch her legs in the back seat. Last time I picked someone up from the airport, I fit four carry-on suitcases with room to spare, which is pretty impressive cargo capacity for a sedan.
