Enthusiasts seeking a high-performance luxury experience will find much to appreciate in the 2026 Cadillac CT5-V series. This sedan is available in two distinct trim levels: the versatile CT5-V and the ultra-powerful CT5-V Blackwing. Below is a breakdown of how these two models compare.
Performance
The CT5-V is powered by a 3.0-liter, twin-turbo V6 engine, providing 360 horsepower and 405 lb-ft of torque. It uses a 10-speed automatic transmission and offers both rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive layouts. Standard mechanical features include an adaptive Magnetic Ride Control suspension and a limited-slip differential for improved cornering.
The CT5-V Blackwing is equipped with a 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 engine, generating an incredible 668 horsepower and 659 lb-ft of torque. This model is rear-wheel drive exclusive and allows drivers to select between a 10-speed automatic or a traditional six-speed manual transmission. It also features summer performance tires and more aggressive suspension tuning to handle its increased power.
Appearance
The CT5-V features a sleek profile defined by its bold front fascia and 19-inch alloy wheels. The CT5-V Blackwing has a more technical appearance, utilizing functional exterior upgrades to improve track performance. These include larger cooling air ducts, air extractors on the front fenders, and exclusive forged 19-inch wheels designed to accommodate a wider footprint.
Features
Inside the CT5-V, drivers are greeted by a 33-inch curved LED display and a 5G Wi-Fi hotspot. Luxury features such as lumbar massage in the front seats and a 15-speaker AKG premium sound system are standard. Additionally, Super Cruise and a comprehensive suite of safety sensors come equipped on every model.
The CT5-V Blackwing elevates the cockpit with a performance-focused steering wheel and the Performance Data Recorder. This system records 1080p video and provides real-time feedback on driving dynamics for enthusiasts who want to track their performance.
