Luxury, style, and affordability are three reasons to go for a Cadillac CTS. While the model was discontinued after its 2019 release, you can still get a used Cadillac CTS. Its engine delivers a smooth driving experience at regular and high speeds. With sleek and well-crafted interiors, this sedan is ideal for families. Considering the brand’s reliability and the backing of General Motors, a secondhand luxury car like CTS is a great option.

Top features
The Cadillac CTS or Catera Touring Sedan was manufactured and sold between 2003 and 2019. Here are a few of its best features that make a used Cadillac CTS a popular luxury car:

Engine and performance
The standard engine you can expect to find in a used Cadillac CTS is the 2.0L turbo 4-cylinder that offers 268 hp. This would earn up to 30 mpg on the highway. For a high-performance model, you can get a 3.6L V6 Twin Turbo V-Sport engine that delivers 420 hp and 430 lb-ft of torque. The engines are paired with an intelligent 8-speed automatic transmission that offers smoother shift changes. The sedan’s Magnetic Ride Control helps adjust the suspension automatically depending on the condition of the road. This provides a smoother and better ride, especially on rough terrains. You get an all-wheel drive with active torque technology that offers better control, handling, and stability, particularly in poor weather conditions.

Exterior styling
Even a used Cadillac CTS comes with a modern, aerodynamic design that grabs attention and boosts its performance. You also get high-intensity discharge (HID) headlamps with adaptive forward lighting, i.e., the headlamps can move depending on the steering wheel position. This ensures that the road is perfectly illuminated even on the darkest nights. The illuminating door handles, seven exterior color choices, and the LED center brake lamp add to the innovative design of this vehicle.

Technology
The Cadillac CTS is packed with advanced technology like the rear camera mirror, which offers a wider and less obstructed view than a normal rearview mirror. However, you can switch to the ordinary rearview mirror if you want. The car has a head-up display to project details like speed and navigation, making driving easier. You also get a wireless charging feature and a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot that allows connectivity for up to seven devices. So the passengers can be entertained on long adventures. Using the adaptive remote start, you can start the engine from about 100 yards away. The cabin climate control will ensure that the cabin is at the right temperature for absolute comfort. Additionally, you can get a heated steering wheel.

Interiors
This sedan is spacious, luxurious, and comfortable. A used Cadillac CTS is a great choice owing to its semi-aniline leather seats and the use of real wood and other premium materials for the cabin. The 12.3-inch LCD gauge cluster offers easy-to-read information in brilliant and vivid colors. You also get adjustable front seats for maximum comfort.

Safety
Check for safety features in a used Cadillac CTS like rain sensing wipers, lane change alert, reverse automatic braking, adaptive cruise control, forward collision alert, lane-keep assist, and automatic seat belt tightening. The availability of these features depends on the trim, and premium trims come with additional safety technology.

You can find older CTS models in five trims—Standard, Luxury, Premium Luxury, Vsport, and Vsport Premium. The pricing can differ based on the overall usage and the trim you choose. You can contact local dealerships to check if they have used Cadillac CTS for sale.
