What is the Cadillac CT6?

The CT6 was a large luxury sedan at the top of Cadillac’s sedan range. Its mixed-material structure and aluminium exterior panels helped give this spacious four-door a lighter construction. The first generation ran from 2016 to 2020.

Engines and power

Engine choices varied by market. US and Canadian versions included petrol engines from 2.0 to 4.2 litres, as well as a plug-in hybrid. EU figures list a 3.0-litre petrol engine producing 307 kW (417 PS), while UK figures cover a 3.0-litre petrol version.

How economical is the Cadillac CT6?

The EPA gives the CT6 a best combined rating of 28 MPG and a lowest listed petrol consumption of 8.4 L/100 km.

Canada lists 9.5 L/100 km for petrol and a weighted 9.2 L/100 km for the plug-in hybrid on the NRCan 5-cycle test. The UK figure of 9.6 L/100 km uses NEDC. These procedures differ, so ratings are best read within their own markets.
