1. Styling
You want your performance sedan to have some real road presence, and the CT5-V Blackwing has plenty of it. It’s big, confident, and looks just as menacing parked as it does in motion.
For 2025, Cadillac has refined the design with a wider grille, daytime running lights that flow in one continuous line downward, a reworked lower grille, and sharper creases and cutlines throughout. The new stacked headlights sit above subtle fake vents, while a black rear spoiler and three new metallic color options (Deep Space, Typhoon, and Drift) add the finishing touches.
2. Powertrain
The mean looks of the 2025 CT5-V Blackwing are a not-so-subtle hint at the supercharged 6.2-liter V8 under the hood. It pumps out 668 horsepower and 659 lb-ft of torque, launching the car from a dead stop to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds and on to a top speed north of 200 mph. Maximum torque arrives early at 3,500 rpm, while peak torque hits at 6,500, which means it’s got both everyday punch and high-rpm excitement.
Power goes to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission. A quick-shifting ten-speed automatic gearbox is available, too. With launch control, a limited-slip differential, high-performance suspension, Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires (275s up front and 305s in the back), and carbon-ceramic brakes, you’ll have no problem taking on straight lines, attacking corners, or stopping.
3. Comfort and Convenience
The 2025 CT5-V Blackwing is equal parts comfy cruiser and serious driver’s car. On the comfort front, you get leather seats that heat, cool, and even massage you. There’s also a head-up display, wireless phone charging, a killer 16-speaker AKG sound system, and a huge 33-inch curved screen that combines the gauges and infotainment into one.
Helping with that daily-driver friendliness are the magnetorheological dampers, which constantly read the road and your inputs, tweaking the suspension in as little as five milliseconds. For the track junkies, the optional Performance Data and Video Recorder tracks speed, throttle, braking, and sector times, then lets you compare laps side by side with video overlays. It can even show you where you’re gaining or losing time so that you can shave a few seconds off your next run.
