​​The 2026 Cadillac CT4 or CT5: Which One Would You Choose?​ 

The sedan has been a part of Cadillac’s legacy since the beginning. It is something we uphold for generations, no matter how they are shaped, their ultimate purpose, or the names they carried – DeVille, Fleetwood, Seville, CTS, and so forth.  

Today, the Cadillac sedan is offered in two main forms: the 2026 CT4 and the 2026 CT5. Each of them offers an experience that is uniquely Cadillac with two different approaches.  

As our smallest sedan, the 2026 CT4 offers a perfect mix of sport and luxury. Its size lends to its nimbleness on the road, taking on mountain highways with inherent confidence.  

Standard on the 2026 CT4 is a 237-horsepower 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. It is powerful, yet efficient with an EPA rated 32 MPG on the highway. You can step up to the 310-horspower 2.7-iter dual-volute turbocharged V6 with 350 pound-feet of torque. It is also rated for the 0-to-60 MPH sprint in 4.8 seconds. You can order your CT4 with all-wheel drive for year-round traction.  

If you want the same mix of sport and luxury in a larger size, the 2026 CT5 fits the bill. You have a choice of power between the 237-horsepower twin-scroll turbocharged 2.0-liter engine or the 335-horsepower twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6. It also offers the option of all-wheel drive, while providing you with cabin space to stretch out on the highway. The CT5 comes with the 33-inch Horizon Display with informative and interactive screens making the drive easy.  

Each of these two sedans offer two levels of performance beyond the standard specification. The 2026 CT4-V and CT5-V offers exceptional road manners that will excite the soul. The 2026 CT4-V is powered by a 325-horsepower version of the turbocharged 2.7-liter V6. The 2026 CT5-V also adds more excitement with its 360-horsepower twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6.  

Both V-models can be taken a step further with their available Blackwing guises, which represent the most driver-focused Cadillac road cars ever built. The 2026 CT4-V Blackwing is motivated by a 472-horsepower twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 connected to a six-speed manual transmission. A set of Brembo brakes and other performance-oriented enhancements make the 2026 CT4-V Blackwing a desirable track weapon.  

Then, there is the ultimate performance Cadillac – the 2026 CT5-V Blackwing. This is the car that inspired the Cadillac’s brand’s entry into motorsports on the IMSA, FIA World Endurance Championship and Formula 1 circuits. The 668-horsepower supercharged 6.2-liter V8 and standard six-speed manual transmission puts this in rarified air as the performance sedan of choice for the enthusiast. Which is why it earned a sport on Car and Driver’s 10Best list for 2026.  

At Cadillac, the power of choice comes down to which sedan you want to take command of. What level of performance do you desire? No matter which 2026 CT4 or CT5 you choose, you get a Cadillac that will fulfill your need for luxury and performance.
