I've been driving for over a decade and have test-driven many Cadillac models. The differences between the XTS and CT6 are quite noticeable. The XTS is a front-wheel-drive vehicle, more comfort-oriented, delivering a smooth ride but lacking punchy power – suitable for daily driving though with relatively high fuel consumption, while offering truly spacious interiors. The CT6 is different; it's primarily rear-wheel-drive, more agile in handling, with significantly quicker acceleration, especially the turbocharged version which is exceptionally powerful. Additionally, the CT6 features more advanced chassis technology and lightweight materials, feeling very stable at high speeds with reduced noise. Interior-wise, the XTS exudes stronger luxury vibes, whereas the CT6 leans more towards tech-savvy with large screens and various intelligent safety systems. Overall, the XTS suits owners who prefer traditional comfort, while the CT6 leans towards sportiness and modernity, offering much higher driving pleasure.
