Where is the battery located in the Cadillac CT6?

Cadillac CT6's battery is located in the trunk. The original battery is maintenance-free, so do not remove the cover or add liquid. When a new battery is needed, refer to the replacement number indicated on the original battery label. The Cadillac CT6 uses an Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) 12-volt battery. Installing a standard 12-volt battery will shorten the battery's lifespan. The Cadillac CT6 is a high-end luxury sedan under the Cadillac brand, with body dimensions of 5184mm in length, 1879mm in width, and 1472mm in height, and a wheelbase of 3109mm.

When driving my Cadillac CT6, I often need to check the battery, which is actually hidden in the trunk, specifically under the cover panel in the right corner. The first time I looked for it, I thought it was in the engine compartment, but when I opened the hood, there was nothing there. Later, I lifted the soft mat in the luggage compartment and saw a metal cover—opening it revealed the battery box. This design is for vehicle weight distribution to ensure more stable acceleration, but it also means you have to bend slightly when replacing the battery, so be careful not to damage the trunk interior. If you're doing it yourself, remember to disconnect the negative terminal first to prevent short circuits, as both terminals are clearly marked. For long-term use, I regularly clean off dust to prevent rust, as the exposed battery tends to accumulate dirt. In short, don’t spend a fortune at the dealership—just keep a small wrench handy. The location may seem hidden, but it’s actually easy to find.

My car is the Cadillac CT6, and the battery is located on the right side of the trunk, specifically in a hidden compartment within the storage area, usually covered by a soft pad. Just lift it to see the cover. Maintaining the battery yourself is simple: first, open the trunk, remove any items, and locate the removable panel—the battery compartment is underneath. It has clearly marked positive and negative terminals. When replacing the battery, be sure to use insulated gloves and avoid using excessive force when loosening the clips. The rear placement is designed for weight distribution, improving ride smoothness, though it does add some inconvenience to luggage arrangement. I recommend checking the battery status every six months, especially in winter when batteries are prone to degradation. Bring a multimeter to measure the voltage; if it drops below 12.6V, consider replacing it. Avoid parking in high-temperature areas to extend its lifespan.

I've been driving the CT6 for several years, and the battery is located on the right side of the trunk, requiring you to lift the carpet and cover. The process is quite straightforward: open the trunk, glance at the small area in the corner, and pull back the covering to reveal it. This setup is designed to optimize the center of gravity for better handling, but it can occasionally get in the way when loading large items. Don't panic if you're replacing the battery yourself—first, use insulated tools to disconnect the negative cable, then handle the positive terminal, and make sure the terminals are tightly secured during installation. It's a simple and hassle-free task that saves you a trip to the repair shop. Regularly cleaning dust and debris helps reduce corrosion.
