2023 Cadillac CT4-V and CT5-V Blackwing models named on Car and Driver’s 10 Best List

It is one thing to own a car you need and quite another to drive the car that makes you come alive and enjoy the feeling of being a party to the car’s reactions. This is the kind of car we call our favorite car. The 2023 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing and CT5-V Blackwing are destined to be the favorite cars of everyone that takes advantage of the opportunity to own one.

The Cadillac V-Series was already a performance legend when the Blackwing badge was introduced and elevated the top-of-the-line to a height never before imagined. When Eldorados and Fleetwood Broughams cruised the boulevards of America they were powerful cars. These land yachts that had straight-line power but had no chance to go zero to sixty in 4.0 seconds or take a curve at speed. Yet today, the Cadillac Blackwing high performance cars offer a level of speed and luxury unavailable in days of yore.

Car and Driver made both the 2023 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing and the CT5-V Blackwing part of its 10Best List for the second year in a row. It was an easy choice. Your first five minutes behind the wheel of a Blackwing will give you the feeling of what it feels like to have wings of your own.

The CT4-V Blackwing comes with a 3.6L turbocharged V-6 and a 6-speed manual transmission. A 10-speeed automatic is also available. Included with this setup is 472 horsepower and 445 lb-ft of inertia-killing torque.  As Car and Driver reports, “For anyone who enjoys driving, it’s always a treat to slide behind the wheel of a CT4-V Blackwing.”

A CT5-V Blackwing is almost an airplane. This one will take you places you have never been before with a 6.2L V-8 and a 6-speed manual or 10-speed automatic transmission. The 668 horsepower and whopping 659 lb-ft of torque show you why driving a Cadillac like this is almost too much fun to be legal. But this is what you get when dominant performance meets distinguished luxury.  In his review for Car and Driver, David Beard writes, “The Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is the greatest sports sedan on sale today, if not of all time.” 

The CT4-V Blackwing and the CT5-V Blackwing are not just for those who have dreams of racing and appreciate performance. These machines offer commanding performance and unmitigated power. Ownership under these terms is experienced rather than explained. Of course, the exciting part is that the Blackwing mystique is not just for the well-heeled collector. These beauties are within the reach of many car enthusiasts.
