The 2025 Cadillac CT5 has some updates but buyers could be in for some sticker shock if they decide to place an order. Changes to the line-up mean that the entry-level model is now $9,200 more expensive than previously.
For 2025, Cadillac will sell the CT5 in Premium Luxury, Sport, and CT5-V guises with prices kicking off from $47,595, excluding delivery fees. The reason? Cadillac has dropped the base Luxury trim level from the range which for the 2024 model was priced from a more competitive $38,395.
Prices of the Premium Luxury and Sport models are also up significantly from last year. Indeed, the Premium Luxury’s $47,595 starting price is $4,700 higher than before. Similarly, the CT5 Sport is available from $48,595, a $4,500 rise, Cars Direct notes.
Cadillac has not yet announced pricing for the flagship CT5-V and CT5-V Blackwing models.
The updates for the new model year include revised front and rear fascias, as well as Cadillac’s superb 33-inch curved display with Google built-in. There is also a 5G Wi-Fi hotspot. Some new safety features also come standard, including Blind Zone Steering Assist and Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking. The Super Cruise semi-autonomous driving system is also available as an option.
