What are the differences between Cadillac CT4 and CT5?
1 Answers
CT5 adopts a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout and features standard mid-size luxury sedan dimensions (4924*1883*1453mm, wheelbase 2947mm). CT4 is positioned lower in the lineup. Although both models are equipped with a 2.0T engine, CT4's transmission is downgraded from 10AT to 8AT compared to CT5, along with shorter body length (4756mm) and wheelbase (2775mm for CT4-V). Here are detailed comparisons: 1. CT5 can be considered a direct competitor to German rivals (3 Series, C-Class, A4), with comparable pricing to their mainstream variants while offering larger dimensions - consistent with Cadillac's competitive strategy. 2. To boost sales volume, Cadillac's marketing explicitly positions CT5 against these German competitors, reinforcing this perception. 3. In terms of value proposition, the previous ATS-L could only rival entry-level German models (1 Series, A3), and CT4 might face similar positioning challenges.
