While it will be some time yet before we have the full details of the coming 2016 Cadillac CT6 sedan, an anonymous insider has confirmed that the car will come equipped with massage chairs like those offered in the 2015 XTS and Escalade.
The inclusion of this feature should go a long way toward solidifying the CT6 as a formidable luxury sedan competitor to the likes of offerings from Jaguar, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz.
The 22-way adjustable seats in the 2015 XTS Premium/Platinum and Escalade Platinum models feature synonymous massage technology. They can operate in the shoulder region, back lumbar area, and/or bottom seat cushion, rolling, kneading, and relieving tension while you occupy either of the front seats.
What’s really appealing about Cadillac’s seat-massage system is that the front seat occupants can activate the system at the flip of a switch, customize settings like intensity, speed and operative regions on the central infotainment screen, and then store those settings to memory just like the seat adjustments. That means that occupants can, at the push of a button, recall their stored favorite massage settings, without having to again set up and tweak the system to their liking.
As GM Engineering Group Manager Elizabeth Hayes remarked in a release, “This feature gives customers another way to improve their drive… It is our goal to always find ways to make getting from point A to point B a little more pleasant.”

It should put hot stone massage and maybe some fragrance sanitizer
Find me a 2015 XTS with massaging seats and I’ll buy it today
Like for Cadillac to offer massage for passenger also.
Will it offer auto-dimming passenger side mirror?
Sorry, I could not miss this one.
Sorry i mean CT6-V ? 🙂 audi s8 and MB S AMG
I love the CT6… Sadly I already bought the 2015 ATS.. It’s a good thing that this new model doesn’t have V8 option. Don’t give me wrong, I love the big ol’ V8, I used to drive V8 cars. But I think from comfortability perspective, the twin turbo V6 is better and seems a bit more fuel efficient. Companies all around the world are starting to lower their car’s displacement. I heard the Audi R8 gonna have hybrids model…. Don’t know if that’s true..
Wow, that’s a great idea. It will be dream of many people.
Awesome news Aaron, I’m a bit late but I’d love to see that Cadillac CT6. BTW why didn’t you share any pictures, please share if you have any, will wait for your reply.
Is this already available? It might be a bit of a distraction while driving. Interesting nevertheless!
i think osaki massage chairs are the best best in the market comparing it with other players. Features are also amazing and service is also good. However, if anybody thinks it otherwise you can let me know. I am planning to buy it for my mother.
When are massage seats available in the XT6? They told me today they were not available, and I told them I’d wait to buy a car. I had checkbook in hand too.

The 22-way adjustable heated and ventilated seats have a luxury option which includes a special massage function that massages the front passengers’ upper shoulder, back lumbar, and cushion areas. The driver’s seat also features an anti-fatigue option to help keep the driver alert.
