Cadillac has unveiled the new 12-inch digital gauge cluster slated for the 2021 Cadillac CT4 and 2021 Cadillac CT5 luxury sedans.
As GM Authority was the first to report, the latest 2021 Cadillac CT4 and 2021 Cadillac CT5 replaces the analog/digital gauge readout on the previous 2020 model year with a new digital reconfigurable unit. The gauge cluster found on the previous model year incorporated an analog speedometer and tachometer bookending a central 8-inch digital screen, while the gauge cluster in the latest 2021-model-year vehicles is now an all-digital unit measuring in at 12 inches.
The new digital display will be optional on Premium Luxury, Sport, and V-Series models via the Technology Package, which also includes a Head-Up Display. Meanwhile, base Luxury models will come with the same dual digital Driver Information Center display as the previous 2020 model year.
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 |
The new 12-inch all-digital gauge cluster found in the 2021 Cadillac CT4 and 2021 Cadillac CT5 will offer multiple themes that will allow drivers to tailor the aesthetic of the display to taste. These include the standard Tour, the performance-oriented Sport, and a darker Stealth theme. The go-fast 2021 Cadillac CT4-V and 2021 Cadillac CT5-V will also feature a new Track theme.
After selecting their desired theme, drivers will then be able to change the specific information displayed in each “zone” of the display.
The new all-digital display brings the 2021 Cadillac CT4 and 2021 Cadillac CT5 more in line with rival offerings from other manufacturers, most of which already offer all-digital gauge clusters.
We’ll have plenty more about the 2021 Cadillac CT4 and 2021 Cadillac CT5 soon, so stay tuned. In the meantime, make sure to subscribe to GM Authority for more Cadillac CT4 news, Cadillac CT5 news, Cadillac news, and around-the-clock GM news coverage.

About damn time. There’s NO REASON that this shouldn’t have been included at launch.
Bean count was just too high at the time, I suppose.
it looks good, better than the digital display that was on the CTS.
The CTS Digital gauges came out in 2016 so I would hope that something that replaces it in 2021 would be better.
@Cadillac Matt hold on now cadillac man, i liked the cts display lol
the 2022 genesis g70 is coming out early next year with 290HP standard in the base model.
that is more than the 237HP in the ct4/5.
the g70 has better a design too.
Then piss off to Hyundai Authority.
hahaha!!! i don’t speak korean!!!
Start learning…..
the new acura tlx is going to have 272HP standard.
i better learn japanese too!!!!
Please do, and tell Acura rwd is a starting point for a sport sedan….
Lol, Guest is just flaring this guy. Stop the fight! 😉
The ATS 2.0T made 272 horsepower from the LTG. Nobody cares nor cared.
The LTG also wasn’t the most refined engine. The 238 coming from the LSY feels more refined than the whopping 34 more horsepower output by the LTG.
As I almost always state when discussing these things… the output of the base engine in these vehicles is meaningless. It might matter to those who are enthusiasts, but it is irrelevant to the target customer. As long as the engine propels the car decently and doesn’t exhibit horrible qualities in fuel economy or NVH, it’s a-ok.
Finally….Now get Cadillac CT4 and CT5 proper Luxury 12 Inch Infotainment screens, and more power in base trim and Cadillac will have a chance in the Luxury Sedan Segment
Why does it seem like GM has been constantly giving us indirect signs that the CT4 and CT5 aren’t long for this world? I really think they’ll be gone by 2024, when the Camaro dies yet again. Likely replaced by EV’s, if GM even cares about Cadillac sedans at that point. Sad…
ct4/5 are both walking dead.
the first clue was the truck engine.
Heck yeah, Cadillac leaps into 2015 with a bang!
I’m so confused. Maybe it’s just the change in times I guess. Years ago when GM (I was with a Buick and Cadillac dealership) first began to bring digital dashes out, people and car magazines complained to no end about it. I recall reading things in car mags like nobody wants digital dashes. Bring back the analog! I get that these dashes today are light years ahead of those old ones, but the concept is still the same. We do live in the age of everyone having a cell phone stuck in front of their faces.
The digital dashes of the past were also mostly green and very slow in updating information.
We just live in a backward time now…
People just evaluate the vehicles on how “NICE” the interior is, versus back then when people judged the car on how practical, reliable, performed, feels, designed, and how ergonomic it is.
The new car community has replaced “gear-heads” with “interior decorators”.
Sad times.
Finally. Probably in 3 months they will show more pics of it lol… Gm Gm..
It’s unbelievable. This should have been included at launch. It’s the digital era guys, cmon GM, bring it to Chevy and GMC too.
If you knew Cadillac then you would know that it was 2014 when the CTS had digital gauges. As i own one. Keep trolling.
Your not the only cadillac owner plus my V has more tban just gauges but im sure you already know that too!
Why did you say 2016 then?
Cause I was referring to the V.
The non V 3rd gen got the digital display in 2014. so you original response to my first post was incorrect and trollish.
That being said, the gauge was modified in 2016 to have the two rings on the ends, and you lost 2 of the themes that were once there unless you got the V or V-sport.

You guys were not the first ones to report on the CT4 getting the digital cluster. 😉
But thanks for bringing out a pic of it.
I see this as kind of sad. We really wanted a CT5, but were hoping for a Cadillac worthy interior like the Escalade or Lyriq. So even with this digital dash, its still just a Chevrolet class interior !
And if what some here are saying, this will be the last ICE Cadillac sedan, its just sad !
We will not be able to buy an EV as the charging will not work for us !
So we can chose a Cadillac with a Chevrolet interior, or a true Cadillac sedan, without an ICE powertrain !
Man GM you just can’t win !
If GM would have just spent the money, instead of being so da/\/\ cheap, and put the interior in these sedans that Cadillac deserved, GM would be reaping the benefits as we sit here !
Sad !
For the love of God, can the CT5 come standard with a 300HP I4 and bump the optional V6 power rating to over 400HP like the LGW in the lamented CT6?
Same with the CT4… bump the standard I4’s power to at least to 260HP.
Both CT4/CT5 with the 10-speed standard on any engine.
That is all these two Caddies needs.
Digital dashes. Hate them.
i agree! I test drove the I4 CT5 and man it was disapointing not only in the lack of power but the amount of sound coming in the cabin was unreal. I’ve owned several A4’s (I4) and currently looking to replace my 2017 Regal (I4)….all of which performed and have better NVH (engine wise) then this new CT5 I4. I would recomend anyone looking at one to just go for the v6. super disapointed, the interior is nice but when you drive it it sounds like some cheap compact with no NVH.
What is so exciting about a digital dash? The 87 Corvette had one.
@Voice Of Reason: I’m not sure if I follow you on this. I think I agree with most of what you said. But I will say that the interior is quite important no matter if analog or digital dashes. IMO, a real gear-head would want the more basic dash layout with something (analog or digital) that can be looked at and easily understood quickly. But a quiet interior (for a luxury brand) is important. Great, not just good, materials is important. Interior design is important. Logical ergonomics is important. And although these same things should be important in a car like what I have (2020 Chevy Spark Special Ed), it’s just more acceptable when those things are not as good when I paid $13,224.00 for my brand new tiny Chevy. But if I’m paying for a Cadillac, I want a really nice interior that is well designed for sure.
