Product Overview
Cadillac CT6 is full-size sedan in production from 2016. It is available with V6, V8, and inline-4 engines from 2.0L to 4.2L and comes in petrol and PHEV guises.
Owners will probably enjoy the powerful twin-turbo V8 in the CT6-V Blackwing the most, which is smoother than smaller engines and comes with an exhaust note that is sure to please. Compared to I6, H6, V10, or V12, however, the V8 is not very responsive.
The official fuel economy rating for the PHEV is exceptionally rosy, though it may cast more doubts on the trustworthiness of the regulators and perhaps the owner's own sanity than it relates to reality.
Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the Cadillac CT6 comes with multi-link suspensions at all four corners. This provides the best cornering performance and tunability, at the expense of cost and a little bit of durability.
