  • 2019 Cadillac CT6 V-Sport

    Dash cameras have quickly become a more-popular aftermarket purchase for many drivers, but Cadillac has made its first move to integrate the technology from the factory. With the reveal of the 2019 Cadillac CT6 V-Sport on Wednesday, the luxury brand announced the Surround Vision Recorder as an available feature on the 2018 CT6. The system isn't exactly on par with aftermarket dash cams, but it does nail many of the basics. The Surround Vision Recorder will record either a front or a rear view while driving, not both, though the driver can change the view on the fly. The driver also has to...

    When it arrived as a 2016 model, Cadillac’s CT6 ushered in a new naming strategy for the brand and marked the first use of the lightweight, aluminum-infused Omega platform for large, rear-wheel-drive cars at General Motors. While the CT6 was never meant to be the true flagship sedan Cadillac fans have been pining over for years, its combination of sharp pricing, generous space, and impressive handling and dynamics makes it hard to beat for buyers after a large, luxurious sedan. Cadillac’s currently working to make the CT6 even better. A prototype for a facelifted version has been...

  • 2017 Cadillac Escalade

    Tasty margins and a willing audience make full-size luxury SUVs a cutthroat business. And we don't mean it in the "friendly afternoon soccer game way," either. Think Michael Douglas in "Wall Street." Cadillac is offering $5,000 to Lincoln owners willing to trade allegiances. The kicker? Trade in your 1999 or newer Lincoln Navigator for a new Cadillac Escalade. Why now? The new Navigator is nearing dealer lots and General Motors would love to take wind out of its sails. Bloomberg reported Tuesday that the incentive is part of a concerted effort to keep GM's market share in an effort to stem a...

  • 2018 Cadillac CTS-V Glacier Metallic Edition

Instead, to celebrate Cadillac's 115th birthday, General Motors' luxury marque has revealed the 2018 Cadillac CTS-V Glacier Metallic Edition.

Aside from a Glacier Metallic exterior color, Cadillac has outfitted the special CTS-V with forged 19-inch alloy wheels with a polished finish and Midnight Silver-painted pockets. Dark red brake calipers offset the subdued exterior colors and Cadillac has included...
