Reviews SummaryThe 2016 Cadillac ATS improves upon last year with a new, 3.6-liter V6 that adds cylinder deactivation and 12 additional horsepower. In addition to the improvements up front, the ATS now sports Apple's CarPlay, which is a viable option for automakers in the future to better serve customers who opt for more infotainment features. The rest of the award-winning car is all there: competent chassis and impeccable road manners. It's enough to give the Germans a run for their money. | |
Reviews SummaryA relative bargain in the premium midsize car segment, the 2025 CT5 sedan receives several changes to keep it appealing. Mostly, they pertain to technology, and the new 33-inch display containing digital instrumentation and a new infotainment system is the most obvious manifestation of that. In addition, the CT5 gets more standard and available safety features and driver assistance tech, AKG audio, new front-end styling, and a couple of new paint colors. Verdict: Despite the updates for 2025, the Cadillac CT5 is starting to look and feel like an older car. Also, compared to its rivals, it lacks polish and refinement. However, it is a bargain when cross-shopping it with the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series, and Mercedes-Benz E-Class. Its tech is impressive, too. | |
