1 Answers
The wheelbase of the CT5 is 2947 mm, while the wheelbase of the CT4 is 2775 mm. The CT4's wheelbase is 172 mm shorter than that of the CT5. However, both the CT4 and CT5 are models in the same segment, as they are both B-segment sedans and are equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. Below are the detailed specifications of the CT4 and CT5: 1. Powertrain: Both the CT4 and CT5 use a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine with the codename LSY, which is a new 2.0T engine developed by the General Motors group. The CT5's engine delivers 241 horsepower and a maximum torque of 350 Nm, with the peak torque available between 1500 and 4000 rpm and the maximum power output at 5000 rpm. This engine features direct fuel injection and an aluminum cylinder head and block. The CT4's engine produces 237 horsepower, with all other parameters identical to the CT5. The CT5 is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, while the CT4 uses an 8-speed automatic transmission. 2. Suspension Structure: The CT4 and CT5 share the same suspension setup. Both models feature a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. The multi-link independent suspension enhances wheel contact with the road, improving traction, which in turn enhances the vehicle's handling and ride comfort. The MacPherson strut is the simplest type of independent suspension and is widely used. It occupies minimal space in the engine bay and consists of a single L-shaped control arm.
