The Cadillac CT4 first hit the scene for the 2020 model year as an all-new compact luxury sedan, offering sumptuous luxury, clean style, and performance on demand. Now, with the approach of the 2021 Cadillac CT4, GM Authority is here to report that the next model year will add the option for a new all-digital gauge cluster.
The new digital gauge cluster slated for the 2021 Cadillac CT4 replaces the optional 8-inch diagonal color reconfigurable Driver Information Center display offered with the current 2020 model year. The new unit is a large 12-inch diagonal color reconfigurable display, and is offered exclusively via the Technology Package (RPO code CWM). The Technology Package content includes:
- Air Ionizer
- 12-inch diagonal color reconfigurable driver display
- Head-Up Display
The new optional 12-inch diagonal color reconfigurable display offered with the 2021 Cadillac CT4 is only available on Premium Luxury, Sport, and CT4-V trim levels with the Technology Package. The all-digital screen is not available on the base-model Luxury trim.
| Standard | Optional | |
|---|---|---|
| Cluster: | Gauge cluster with dual digital Driver Information Center display | Gauge cluster with 8-inch diagonal color reconfigurable Driver Information Center display |
| RPO Code: | UDD | UHS |
| Standard | Optional | |
|---|---|---|
| Cluster: | Gauge cluster with dual digital Driver Information Center display | Gauge cluster with 12-inch diagonal color reconfigurable display |
| RPO Code: | UDD | UDV |
Like the CT4, the upcoming 2021 Cadillac CT5 will also offer a new 12-inch digital gauge cluster as an available option. So far, no photos of the new screen are available, but for reference, we have included an image of the current 2020 Cadillac CT4 infotainment setup.
Infotainment in the 2020 Cadillac CT4
The addition of a new all-digital gauge cluster as an available option for the 2021 Cadillac CT4 makes perfect sense when judged by the CT4’s competition, most of which already offer digitized instrumentation. What’s more, the CT4 features General Motors’ latest Global B electronic architecture, which makes digital instrumentation even more of a no-brainer. Finally, J.D. Power recently ranked Cadillac third in its recent Tech Experience Index study, and as GM’s technology leader, the Cadillac brand should pack in all the digital goodies it can muster.

Infotainment screen to small, shifter from 2012, manual adjust on the steering wheel shouldn’t exist.
@Cadillac Matt
I totally agree with you. The Mercedes A Class, BMW 2 Series, and especially the Audi A3 make the CT4 look like a car that came from the early 2000’s
That Gear Shift Lever has to go and has to go ASAP. I said that from Day one. How in the heck can GM make all these so called new Models (CT4, CT5, XT4, XT5, and XT6) but not have a Fully digital instrument cluster in todays Luxury market. It is so ridiculous. I mean Mercedes showcased their ALL NEW Infotainment system on their cheapest vehicle. The A Class and an 80K fully loaded XT6 has a slightly better interior than say a Buick.
Man what in the hell is GM thinking with these interior choices they make for Cadillac. They have to rid themselves of the Bean-Counters ASAP.
I like the Gear Shift Lever, however O do think GM needs to step up on the rest of it’s interiors.
Manual adjust steering wheel in a Cadillac is like getting in and seeing roll up windows. Just no, ever!
It’s about time GMA reported on this. 😉
My-my how times have changed, in the past nobody wanted digital displays, now it’s a must.
I am sure it is cheaper to manufacture than an analog cluster too.
Manufacture? Perhaps. Depends on the display technology. Development? Certainly more expensive, but that cost can be less of a burden if they choose to spread a solid system across more models… and I hope they do. Looking at you, CT5.
Does anyone know when the 2021 cadillac CT5 comes out ?
Production on 2021 CT4/5 begins Sept 28.
Thank you very much appreciated 🙏🏻
Full digital cluster should be here for yesterday. Every VW offers it as an option or standard item, but not a $50,000 Chevy Traverse High Country… neither a XT6. Sounds like a joke! GM has the ugliest and most outdated gauges by far.
I second that. Not only are GM interior materials worst in class most of the time but they also have by miles the ugliest and most dated looking Gauge Clusters in the entire Industry.
Typical GM. Cant even show it….
Adding the digital cluster still doesn’t change the overall dull and low rent materials and design…. its 2020 and we are still getting an old looking design albeit with a tablet stuck unto the dashboard.
GM likely doesn’t want to invest too much money in vehicles they are likely to discontinue in another two or three years, when they are replaced with e-cars, at which time they, hopefully, will have all the latest bells and whistles.
Then the buying public shouldn’t invest in there products either if all we are getting is a typical half-ass effort.
