2.0L Turbo Luxury 4dr Rear-Wheel Drive Sedan
2019 Cadillac CT6

Other changes are relatively minor, including new headlights and taillights, plus mildly updated fascias. All told, the body displayed a tauter look.

Cadillac also announced a new CT6-V high-performance model, powered by a twin-turbo, 4.2-liter V-8 that produces 550 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque.

Three other engines carried over. Luxury editions could have either a 265-horsepower, 2.0-liter turbo-4, with rear-drive; or a 3.6-liter V-6 that makes 335 horsepower and 284 pound-feet of torque, fitted with all-wheel drive. Premium Luxury models offer the V-6 version with all-wheel drive.

Sport and Platinum models are equipped with a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V-6 that generates 404 horsepower and 400 pound-feet. A detuned version of the new 4.2-liter V-8, developing 500 horsepower, is optional for Platinum trim.

Previously equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission, CT6 sedans now use a 10-speed automatic.

Neither the NHTSA nor the IIHS has crash-tested the CT6.

Cadillac includes plenty of safety technology. Standard active-safety features for Premium Luxury trim and up include low-speed automatic emergency braking, forward-collision warnings, active lane control, lane-departure warnings, blind-spot monitors, and lane-change alerts. Automatic parking assist now operates the pedals as well as steering. Forward/reverse emergency braking, night vision, and adaptive cruise control are available.

Outward vision is good. The display for the rear-facing camera shows a full-width image on the mirror glass. Using it takes some practice.

The CT6 has been the only Cadillac model to offer Super Cruise semi-autonomous driving-assist. This hands-off adaptive cruise control can steer as well as operate the accelerator and brake.

Early in 2019 Cadillac announced that it would cease CT6 production in North America by early 2020..
